Our Story / Who We Are

Your Journey to Wellness Starts Here

Oasis Behavioral Health was founded on a simple but powerful principle: mental health care should be accessible, evidence-based, and deeply personal. We recognized that navigating mental health challenges—from anxiety and depression to complex neurodevelopmental disorders—requires more than just treatment; it requires a partnership.

Our multidisciplinary team of psychiatric experts and clinical staff work together to provide a sanctuary for healing. Based in Maryland, we serve our community by combining clinical excellence with a “patient-first” philosophy. We don’t just treat symptoms; we support people.

Our journey through the years

1990s
The concept was born
In October 1997, Tony attends a National Workshop on Depression at the Australian National University, Canberra to develop the focus on depression under the Commonwealth Mental Health Strategy.
2000s
Where it all began
A reference group is formed to guide the format of a MHFA course consisting of two mental health nurses, one psychiatrist, two teachers, one first aid instructor and three mental health consumers.
2010s
First Published Trial
The study finds that course participants changed their beliefs about treatment to be more like those of health professionals, felt increased confidence in helping others and were more willing to help people.
2020s
Controlled trials
The first randomised controlled MHFA trials were published in the scientific literature – one on MHFA in the workplace and the other on MHFA for the public in a rural setting.

We are here to support your journey—whether you’re an individual seeking healing or a mental health practitioner seeking growth.
