The outpatient facility provides addiction treatment to those who are addicted to drugs or alcohol. They also provide mental health services for individuals who have a severe or persistent mental illness.
The substance abuse outpatient treatment program provides services to adults who are 18 or older. They also accept individuals who are referred to their facility by the court system, families, or a third party entity. Clients will receive a comprehensive drug assessment to determine the appropriate level of treatment they should receive.
Treatment will generally involve individual and group counseling. Counselors can help clients to manage their stress and emotions better through the use of evidence based therapeutic approaches. They may also help increase a patient’s motivation to change through the use of motivational interviewing.
In group counseling, patients can expect to be in a supportive environment among peers who are also recovering from addiction. A counselor will typically guide discussions on topics related to addiction education and relapse prevention.
They offer intensive outpatient (IOP) counseling services for individuals who need more treatment time to help with overcoming their addiction. In some cases, patients may need to take medications for mental illnesses that contribute to their substance use. Medication monitoring is provided to ensure clients get a safe amount of medication to manage their condition.
