About CSEDNY – Brooklyn Heights, New York

CSEDNY or Counseling Service of Eastern District New York provides an outpatient drug abuse treatment program in Brooklyn, New York. Every member of their treatment team holds a license. Those who have previously struggled to overcome their addictions are welcomed here. To assist even their most difficult clients they collaborate closely with family court, parole and probation departments and mental health organizations.

Adults with a major mental illness and a chemical addiction are treated with their dual diagnosis recovery program which is an evidence based, best practice program. They deal with the ways that substance abuse and mental illness can exacerbate each other and make a client’s physical illness worse.

In addition to improving compliance with regional parole and probation offices as well as other mandating agencies, dual diagnosis treatment can help reduce recidivism. Along with group therapy and random urine toxicology, the program provides individual psychotherapy. They also offer educational and career services, medication treatment for mental health issues, and relapse prevention.

They provide an intensive outpatient program for treating chemical addiction as part of their alternatives to incarceration initiative. Four to five days a week of services are provided to the participants and to ensure compliance there are at least two random drug tests. Treatment times vary based on who referred you. Participants must be men and women 18 years of age or older who have been referred by NYC drug treatment courts, NYC Treatment Alternatives to the Street, Nassau County court diversion programs or other comparable sources of referrals.

Together, the therapist and the probation, parole officer or drug court case manager work closely to support the clients or offenders’ rehabilitation. Young offenders between the ages of 16 and 25 can receive intensive therapeutic rehabilitation in their young adult program. In a peer focused environment, this all encompassing program promotes social and emotional growth.

To address chemical dependency and criminal behavior in a supportive setting cognitive behavioral and psychodynamic approaches are applied. Individual and group therapy for chemical dependency and mental illness is available to participants up to five days a week.
