About Imperial County Behavioral Health – Brawley
In Brawley, California, Imperial County Behavioral Health Services offers assessment, ambulatory detox, medication-assisted treatment, and interventions. Their services are for both adolescents and adults.
Medication assisted treatment is a proven method for treating alcohol or opioid use. Pregnancy-safe, non-addictive medications help reduce your cravings and can help prevent relapse. Counseling is also a vital part of this treatment method.
Their outpatient programs are either general or intensive. These are between 9 and 19 treatment hours a week. They’ll include treatment planning, individual and group counseling, family sessions, education and discharge planning and medication services.
I like that they offer early intervention programs. These are for anyone under 21 years old who are at risk of developing a substance abuse disorder.
If you’ve already completed a course of treatment, you can join their recovery services. If you’ve relapsed or are triggered, these services can offer support to get you back on track.
One of the neat things this facility offers is a wellness radio. You can tune in online to hear interviews about a range of mental health topics. Episodes include dealing with PTSD and supporting the mental health of LBGTQ+ community as well as different holistic treatments.
