About Lane County Behavioral Health – Eugene
Lane County Behavioral Health offers a treatment center in Eugene, Oregon, run by the county’s Behavioral Health Division. The clinic has outpatient behavioral health services for children and adolescents and services for adults. These include drug and alcohol addiction treatment as well as mental health care.
This is an outpatient facility, which means you’ll still live at home and will commute to the clinic for treatment. How often you have treatment will depend on your needs and where you are in your recovery journey. Keep in mind that outpatient treatment is usually best for the later stages of recovery when you’ve already had residential or intensive outpatient treatment and are fairly stable in your sobriety.
The treatment here is mostly therapy and peer support groups. Your treatment plan will be tailored to you and what you need. They also have medication assisted treatment (MAT) if you have opioid addiction to substances like heroin or fentanyl.
Along with providing treatment directly this clinic can also help you get the other services and resources you might need. They provide case management and medication management, and they can help to coordinate your care if you’re a member of the Oregon Health Plan.
The feedback for this treatment center is very polarized. Some people say that it has been a life changing resource that has empowered them to thrive while others say that they weren’t listened to or they report issues with administrative duties and communication.
