UNSPSC 85911013 Individual psychotherapy, behavioral (Commodity) names a range of clinical and crisis mental health assessment and intervention services that state and local governments purchase—most visibly through school districts, public safety agencies, county behavioral health systems, and specialized state facilities. Recent opportunities reveal the code spanning pre-employment and fitness-for-duty psychological evaluations for police, fire, and emergency services; crisis residential and interim housing stabilization for adults with serious mental illness; school-based mental health therapist staffing; employee wellness and stabilization programs for first responders; and specialized psychiatry and psychologist services at state mental health centers and correctional facilities. The issuing-body mix reflects this breadth: Illinois Department of Human Services posts repeatedly for medical directors at state mental health centers and rehabilitation facilities; Florida, Georgia, and Texas school districts solicit special education psychology and behavioral health services; city police and fire departments across the country (Tucson, Tampa, New Haven, Tucson, Fairfax County) solicit pre-employment and fitness-for-duty psychological screening; county behavioral health departments in California, Colorado, and Georgia request crisis housing, interim shelter, and intensive therapy services; and state health commissions purchase forensic psychology and part-time psychiatrist services.
