Far West Center

About Far West Center – Amherst, Ohio

Far West Center provides substance use and mental health treatment for adolescents and adults in Amherst, Ohio. They have partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP), and general outpatient (OP) treatment available. They also offer convenient telehealth visits.

Your recovery starts with a thorough assessment to determine your needs and level of care. They use proven methods like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to address thoughts and behaviors that may not be conducive to a sober lifestyle.

Guests attend individual therapy sessions in a confidential setting where they can discuss anything that may hinder sobriety. These sessions can help uncover the root causes of addiction and help develop healthy coping skills, recognize substance use triggers, and learn relapse prevention methods.

Group sessions offer opportunities to spend time with others in recovery who can understand the unique challenges addiction may cause. The members can give valuable feedback regarding sobriety and become a supportive network that encourages your progress throughout the program. These interactions may reduce feelings of isolation that are often typical with addiction issues.

The program promotes healthy lifestyle changes. You may address negative emotions and actions to implement new, positive behaviors conducive to sobriety.

You may begin 12-step meetings like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA) which can help you accept accountability and responsibility for your actions and recovery. The meetings include others sharing the goal of long-term sobriety.

Family involvement may be encouraged to help loved ones understand the role addiction plays in relationships. Clients can learn to set healthy boundaries, have proper communication skills and be a support network for ongoing sobriety.
