Tucson clinic expands behavioral health options | News

Denova Collaborative Health recently opened a new Tucson clinic, the organization’s first location outside of Phoenix. The clinic is located at 6565 E. Carondelet Drive, Suite 215. It celebrated its grand opening on Sept. 12.

The Tucson clinic offers in-person and virtual appointments with psychiatric providers, primary care providers and therapists. The new clinic leads up to the opening of clinics in Flagstaff and Yuma in 2025. 

With these expansions, Denova will offer services to an additional 751,000 patients statewide.

“This new Tucson clinic represents a significant milestone in ensuring we can provide high-quality, in-person care to as many Arizonans as possible,” said Dr. George Orras, chief clinical officer at Denova Collaborative Health. 

“By bringing our integrated health care model to Southern Arizona, we are not only expanding access to care but also enhancing the quality and coordination of services that patients receive. Our peer-reviewed Denova Symptom Based Assessments (DSBA) model empowers patients and providers to track symptoms, identify issues early, and develop tailored treatment plans, improving outcomes and overall patient health.”

The demand for mental health services has grown significantly, with nearly one in five U.S. adults experiencing mental illness each year, according to the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI). Denova is addressing this urgent need by offering same-day/next-day appointments for psychiatry, therapy and primary care services.

Graham Johnson, CEO of Denova Collaborative Health, described the organization’s broader mission.

“Our growth into Tucson, and soon into Flagstaff and Yuma, is driven by our commitment to serve the underserved across Arizona,” Johnson said.

“At Denova, we believe that health care should be a right, not a privilege. By offering integrated, holistic care that addresses both mental and physical health, we are transforming the health care landscape and making quality care accessible to everyone, regardless of where they live in Arizona.
