About CenterPointe Administrative Offices – Lincoln
CenterPointe Residential has served the public in Lincoln, Nebraska, for over 50 years. They specialize in the treatment of substance abuse and mental health problems. Programs include medication management, transitional housing, and dual diagnosis care for adults 19 years old and older who are homeless or near-homeless. Medicaid is accepted.
CenterPointe’s residential program accepts clients who have a substance abuse problem and have a co-occurring illness, like depression. The stay is typically 6-8 months. The staff uses a bio-psycho-social treatment model to address mental illness and addiction at the same time and on equal terms. They do not use a 12 Step treatment model but encourage people to connect with a 12 Step self help group if they find it helpful to their ongoing recovery.
At CenterPointe, clients must attend 42 hours of group therapy each week. You’ll have the chance to address any lingering mental or behavioral issues. Outside of therapy, you’ll learn new life skills, like cooking. You can also hit the gym, learn how to budget, and cope with trauma and grief. You’ll have access to a computer room. Smoking is not allowed.
There’s also a community outreach program. If you need any basic necessities, like food or hygiene material, you can stop by. Harm reduction materials are also available, like Narcan.
