             MENTAL HEALTH MANAGEMENT ANNOUNCES SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL
         FOR SALE OF HOSPITALS; NAME CHANGE; AND SECOND QUARTER RESULTS

     MCLEAN, VA, - Shareholders of Mental Health Management, Inc. (AMEX: MHM),
voted on May 13, 1996 to approve the sale of five of the Company's freestanding
behavioral health facilities.  Shareholder approval for this sale allows the
company to continue its transition to the on-site delivery of healthcare
services to residents of extended care facilities through the management of non-
physician professional practices.  Shareholders also approved a change of the
Company's name to MHM Services, Inc. to reflect this transition.  The Company
expects the name change to become effective within the next several days upon a
filing with the State of Delaware.

     The agreement to sell the five facilities, located in California, Arizona,
New Mexico and Ohio, was executed in January 1996 and amended in April 1996.
The facilities will be sold for approximately $10 million in cash and assumed
liabilities.

     Michael S. Pinkert, President and Chief Executive Officer of MHM, noted
that "The Company intends to use a significant portion of the proceeds from the
sale of its freestanding facilities to expand its practice management
activities.  A closing on the sale has been scheduled for May 31, 1996 pending
satisfaction of certain conditions."

     In the last year, MHM began its expansion in the field of practice
management.  The Company purchased a network of mental health outpatient clinics
serving over 1,200 patients with 60 professionals in Boston, and a large
psychological practice group serving assisted living centers in California.  For
the past two years, MHM has operated under a


                                     99.1-1
<PAGE>


contract with the State of Georgia to provide mental health and mental
retardation rehabilitation services to Medicaid-eligible nursing facility
residents.

     In addition, the Company reported its results for the quarter and six
months ended March 31, 1996.  Net revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 1996
increased 11% to $11,321,000 from $10,390,000 in the comparable 1995 quarter.
The net loss for the second quarter of fiscal 1996 was $6,208,000 or $1.88 per
share on 3,310,000 weighted average shares outstanding.  This compares with a
net loss of $149,000 or $.04 per share on comparable weighted average shares
outstanding for the same quarter of fiscal 1995.  For the six months ended March
31, 1996, net revenues increased to $22,502,000 from $20,331,000 in the prior
year period.  The net loss was $7,497,000 or $2.27 per share on 3,310,000
weighted average shares outstanding, as compared to a net loss of $365,000 or
$.11 per share on comparable weighted average shares outstanding.  The net loss
in the current year includes an estimated loss on the sale of the freestanding
facilities of approximately $4.4 million.  The prior year included significant
non-recurring pre-tax income of approximately $4.4 million related to the sale
of the Company's interest in a joint venture.

     Commenting on the results, President and CEO Michael S. Pinkert said, "Our
results for the second quarter reflect the anticipated completion of the sale of
five of our freestanding facilities.  The major portion of our losses were
attributable to one-time charges of approximately $4.4 million associated with
write-offs of goodwill related to the facilities, the loss on the sale of
certain property, plant and equipment, transaction expenses, severance costs and
other expenses.  With the sale of our facilities nearly completed, we


                                     99.1-2

can now focus on building the Company into a national practice management leader
for non-physician professionals serving extended care facilities."
