Cherokee Etowah Dekalb CMHC is a community mental health center in Attalla, Alabama, established before 1990. It provides outpatient mental health care, including an Intensive Outpatient (IOP) program, for adolescents ages 13-17 and adults. Depression is among the conditions treated, and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) is part of its treatment approach.

The center is one of a smaller number of local providers that work with pregnant women, and it accepts TRICARE, including coverage tied to military service. This makes it a relevant option for military families and pregnant individuals in the Attalla area seeking outpatient mental health support within a community-based setting.
