At Orlando Behavioral Health, our mission is to reduce barriers to mental health care and ensure access to compassionate, evidence-based treatment for children,

Our Mission and Strategic Objectives

A Future Where Everyone Can Access Mental Health Care

We believe mental health care is an important part of overall health. Everyone—children, teens, adults, and seniors—deserves understanding, support, and quality care without judgment. Our goal is to help individuals and families live healthier, happier lives.

Breaking Stigma

We work to make conversations about mental health feel safe and normal, so people feel comfortable asking for help and know they’re not alone.

Expanding Access

We are opening more clinics and offering virtual appointments so individuals and families can get care when and where they need it.

Innovating Care

We use proven therapies—both traditional counseling and newer treatment options—to provide personalized care that fits each person’s needs.

Empowering Communities

We partner with schools, workplaces, and community groups to support mental wellness and help people build coping skills and resilience.
From a Single Vision to Florida’s Trusted Behavioral Health Network
Our Story & Founder

“Mental health care should never be a privilege — it should be a right for every child, adult, and family who needs it.” – Dr. Bhaskar Raju

OPA Behavioral Health began with a simple yet powerful belief: that compassionate mental health care should be accessible to every individual and family. Founded by Dr. Bhaskar Raju, OPA started as Orlando Psychiatric Associates and has since grown into one of Florida’s leading providers of psychiatry and therapy services.



For more than two decades, Dr. Raju and our dedicated team have worked to remove the stigma around mental health, expand access to care, and empower patients to live healthier, more fulfilling lives. Today, with multiple clinics across Florida and a wide range of specialized services, we remain committed to the same mission that started it all — helping people heal, grow, and thrive.
