About CPN Behavioral Health Services – Shawnee
Located in Shawnee, Oklahoma, are the behavioral health services offered under the Citizen Potawatomi Nation Health Clinic. The Behavioral Health Department offers assessments and evaluations, treatment, and therapeutic interventions to individuals struggling with their mental health or a drug and alcohol use disorder.
All of their services are offered in an outpatient setting. Throughout the year, they also host smoking cessation classes. Services are covered by most major insurance providers, including tribal healthcare.
This Behavioral Health Department provides clinical care that takes an evidence based approach to your recovery needs. While this is an effective way to address your health struggles, it’s also important to recognize that they provide culturally competent care here as well.
Many of their clients are tribal members, and the Citizen Potawatomi Nation serves as the federally recognized government that provides the culturally competent care that tribal members seek.
Still, you don’t have to be a tribal member to receive care here. Anyone can be referred or make a self referral to their behavioral health services.
During your initial assessment and evaluation, an appropriate diagnosis will be made if you have a substance abuse struggle. Underlying mental health concerns will also be identified. Services might include group counseling, therapeutic interventions, medication management, and other supports.
Despite being a behavioral healthcare provider, seeking services here also allows you to get connected to other resources in your community. This can include access to social supports such as legal assistance, financial assistance, and help registering for social support programs.
