They promote your physical and mental health by helping you make wise decisions. Outpatient counseling for mental health and substance abuse issues is provided on weekdays by appointment. They also offer group and individual treatment that is based on your needs, strengths and abilities. They are CARF accredited.

Enhancing your quality of life and wellness are the goals of counseling services. Group therapy can help you learn about the problems you’re facing and give you a chance to discuss them with your peers.

Using a harm reduction strategy, their outpatient program offers peer recovery support, medication assisted treatment (MAT), individual and group therapy, evaluation and treatment planning. They also provide programs for special populations such as veterans, families with children in foster care and criminal justice or diversion.

For alcohol and opiate abuse, they provide a medication assisted treatment program. Buprenorphine or naltrexone is administered as part of the program. These medications can help stabilize withdrawal symptoms and lessen or completely eradicate cravings for opioid and alcohol. The MAT program at this facility does not offer methadone as a therapeutic option.

In order to help break the cycle of addiction and overdose, their coordinated opiate recovery program team collaborates closely with hospital emergency rooms and fire rescues to link individuals and families with the necessary treatment and community resources. These resources include addiction services, sober living support and transportation services for doctors appointments.
