Klamath Tribal Health & Family Services

Klamath Tribal Health and Family Services provides quality healthcare that enhances the cultural, spiritual and physical wellbeing of the tribal members in Klamath Falls, Oregon. This location is their administrative office from which you can link to their full services. This includes medical, dental and behavioral health care.

Their behavioral health clinic provides therapeutic support for adults and youths affected by substance misuse and mental issues. They also support folks with dual diagnosis. This is when someone struggles with both mental issues and substance use disorders. They accept Medicare and various insurance benefits, including those offered via VA.

Services are provided in an outpatient setting. Their substance use outpatient program involves assessment, personalized treatment planning and therapy. They offer evidence based individual and group therapy that addresses the root causes of your substance misuse. They may use trauma-informed care, cognitive behavioral and dialectical approaches for both substance misuse and dual diagnosis conditions. These models equip you with practical tools to handle stress and manage emotions. They help you break unhealthy behavioral habits and build healthier coping skills.

Even though these programs are geared towards adults, I really like how they can assist kids who are impacted by substance abuse. They have play therapy and school-based programs to make sure children stay on track in their studies while staying healthy. This complements their primary care services, so that your kids can recover from any traumas that can come from being in an environment with drugs.

As for adults, they offer life skill coaching and psychosocial education. This can benefit folks with dual diagnosis. The facility also provides multiple court mandated services including drug court, DUII diversion and DUII rehab or education.

They supplement their outpatient therapy with intensive case management services. These include care coordination, referral to additional services and access to community resources like stable housing and employment. Your case manager can help you build social and community relations. They can help you navigate community resources as well. These can all help your long term recovery efforts.
