Behavioral health changes three things about a clinic build: the privacy and safety the design carries, the licensing that shifts with level of care, and an entitlement path that often runs through a public hearing.

A site checks every box, then you walk the lot at 10 a.m. and there's nowhere to put your patients. Why healthcare parking demand outruns the retail a building was striped for, and how to size it from your care model before you sign.
