About Brooklyn Center for Psychotherapy – Park Slope
Located in Brooklyn, New York, the Brooklyn Center for Psychotherapy provides outpatient mental health and addiction recovery services for youth and adults. Their chemical dependency unit operates under the name New Directions and includes medication assisted treatment (MAT), community outreach programs, and ambulatory detox for eligible clients.
They accept walk-in patients and no one will be turned away because of an inability to pay. They offer sliding scale payment plans and accept private insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, and other government funding.
I like that they offer outpatient detox services and MAT for clients in alcohol and opioid recovery. This allows you to receive the care you need when you need it while still living at home and continuing to work or attend school.
They also offer individual, group, and family counseling using a wide array of psychotherapeutic approaches to best meet your needs. It strikes me that they specialize in age specific programming to address the unique needs of teens, young adults, and even seniors.
Their family counseling and education programs recognize the important role that loved ones can play in supporting clients’ long term sobriety. The goal is to promote whole-person healing to include their clients’ physical, emotional, psychological, and social wellbeing. A critical aspect of this is the cultivation of healthy relationships with friends and family members free of codependency.
I appreciate that they also provide a robust aftercare regimen. Depending on your needs, you can continue to receive treatment and support for up to two years. You can also receive care through telehealth if you’re looking for counseling and education from the comfort of your own home.
