UNSPSC 85911000: Psychotherapy and counseling services

This class includes one or more of multiple psychotherapy and counseling interventions or procedures. These interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code GZ.

UNSPSC 85911000 Psychotherapy and counseling services is a Class code capturing mental health education, peer support, advocacy, and referral services that state and local governments contract to address community mental health needs and stigma reduction. State and local buyers under this code include counties, which contract for comprehensive mental health support programming designed to serve residents affected by mental illness. The work spans educational programs challenging stigma, peer support groups, advocacy efforts, peer support specialist assistance, and facilitation of referrals to mental health treatment resources across private and government systems. Issuing bodies appear to contract selectively under this code, with counties as the primary buyers; the source shows Salt Lake County as an active procurer.

Salt Lake County's Division of Contracts and Procurement posted a Request for Information (RFI) on March 4, 2026, for Community Mental Health Education and Support Services, with a response deadline of March 10, 2026, for a proposed six-year sole source contract valued at $600,000 total ($100,000 annually). The county designated the procurement as sole source, asserting that the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) Utah possesses distinctive name recognition and capability unmatched by other mental health organizations in the state. The RFI indicates that Utah shows recent activity in this code space, with Salt Lake County and the Utah Department of Health and Human Services as active procuring entities. Limited recent opportunity volume is visible in the source; a single substantive solicitation appears across the reporting period.
