About Heartland Center for Behavioral Change – Kansas City
Heartland Center for Behavioral Change in Branson, MO serves adult men and women of the City of Branson and/or individuals placed into the Stone County DWI Court Program. CSTAR services available are individual/group counseling and education, community, peer and family support, medication treatment, diagnosis, assessments and treatment planning.
Individuals progress through drug addiction treatment at various rates, so there is no pre-determined length of treatment or predetermined plan of treatment. Research shows that the best treatment outcomes result when the length of treatment corresponds to the needs of each client. Their diagnostic assessment is the first step in identifying the course of treatment. A licensed mental health professional and qualified substance abuse professional first meet with each new client to complete a comprehensive assessment. The results are then used to identify the needs of the person and the individual plan of treatment.
They offer three levels of care in their Comprehensive Substance Abuse Treatment and Rehabilitation (CSTAR) Programs. Each level varies in intensity that ranges from 25 hours weekly to monthly support. Clients are placed in the treatment level that is best matched to their treatment needs. Services include: comprehensive diagnostic assessment, individual and group counseling, dialectic education groups, self-help groups and medication-assisted treatment. Many of their substance abuse treatment services are available at no cost or a low cost through the funding of their federal, state and local partners. Substance abuse treatment fees are based on sliding scaleability to pay basis.
