Public Invited to Beartooth’s Opening of Mental Health Program for Older Adults
For Immediate Release
October 8, 2026
Red Lodge, MT – Beartooth Billings Clinic (BBC) has partnered with Senior Life Solutions to help older adults who are experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, or other mental challenges often associated with aging. The new program is located at BBC at 2525 North Broadway in Red Lodge.
Senior Life Solutions is an outpatient program designed for adults, typically age 65 and older with traditional Medicare, who are experiencing depression, anxiety, grief, or other life challenges affecting their emotional well-being. The program offers group and individual therapy, psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and teletherapy services through a dedicated team that includes a psychiatrist, licensed therapist, registered nurse, and patient coordinator.
“The Senior Life Solutions program provides our community with evidence-based treatment proven to improve the mental health of older adults,” said Beartooth Billings Clinic CEO, Abby Lotz. “Each community health needs assessment, we receive feedback that those we serve will like to see expanded behavioral health services, and additional services for our aging population. We feel this program will meet both of those objectives. In working alongside Carbon County Public Health, the need for support for older adults, access to care, and mental health and substance use services are identified as key priorities, and Senior Life Solutions helps address those needs close to home.”
Individuals may benefit from the program if they are experiencing symptoms such as anxiety, depression, grief, sleep difficulties, loss of interest in activities, low energy, feelings of hopelessness, or the impact of a recent loss or traumatic event. Following an assessment, participants may attend supportive group sessions up to three times per week, along with individualized treatment and ongoing follow-up care. The program also offers teletherapy services, allowing patients to get the mental health support they need from the comfort of their homes using a telephone, computer, or tablet device.
Anyone can refer a patient to the program, including a healthcare professional, family, friend or self-referral. For more information, call the Beartooth Billings Clinic Senior Life Solutions program at 406.446.0649.
Please join Beartooth Billings Clinic in welcoming Senior Life Solutions 10am on Thursday, October 22, at the main entrance and lobby for a ribbon cutting, meet our expanded team, ask questions and collect new knowledge on mental health of older adults. Refreshments will be served.
