Mental Health Assessment and Counseling
Assessments help clinicians evaluate participants’ mental health and create an individualized treatment plan, which may involve individual, group, and family counseling and other addiction treatments.
Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
Downtown Impact uses an interdisciplinary, community-based approach to treat individuals with substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health diagnoses. This includes the evidence-based practice of Assertive Community Treatment (ACT), counseling, skills training, peer support, other social services, and mental health support. The IOP is offered several days per week and is open to individuals over 18.
Medication-Assisted Treatment for Addiction
The medication-assisted treatment (MAT) program includes behavioral counseling, support groups, and medication management in an outpatient setting. It is suitable for opioid and alcohol use disorders. Treatment starts with an assessment, treatment plan, and regular follow-up appointments. After an individual is stabilized, in-person office appointments tend to become less frequent.
Peer Support Program
The peer support program is offered by individuals who have personal experience with addiction and recovery. Each peer goes through a training program which also requires them to pass a background check and to be certified by the state. Peers can support individuals by helping them create a recovery plan, assisting them with accessing services, attending meetings together, and supporting participants in achieving their goals.
