About Advocates Community Counseling – Marlborough
Advocates provides a range of social support services throughout the state of Massachusetts. They specialize in helping children, adolescents and adults overcome mental, intellectual and behavioral health challenges. This can include drug addictions. At their Marlborough location, they offer outpatient counseling services in person and online.
I like that the team here is truly multidisciplinary. If you’re experiencing a hard time in life, you can go to them to find the help you need to get back on your feet. There are counselors, nurses and psychiatrists on staff who are experienced in treating an array of conditions, including addictions and mental health disorders.
When you first meet your counselor, they’ll perform a quick assessment to learn more about your concerns. Then, they’ll work with you to determine which services would be the most helpful for your recovery. Some of the programs they offer include counseling for individuals, groups, and families. They’ll also get you psychiatric assessments and any needed medication management. Some therapists have experience serving certain groups, including the LGBTQ+, deaf and veteran communities.
In addition to their counseling program, their office offers round the clock mobile crisis intervention. If you’re in the middle of a mental or behavioral health emergency, they’ll come to you. Your care can take place in their office, in your home, at your school or in another community location.
