About Long Island Jewish Medical Center – Northwell Health Project Outreach – West Hempstead
Long Island Jewish Medical Center – Northwell Health Project Outreach is a drug and alcohol rehab program located in West Hempstead, New York. They treat people who have substance use disorder or alcohol use disorder. They are an outpatient facility that takes private insurance and self pay.
This place provides many different services. They will give you a full assessment when you come in that will determine if you should have inpatient care or outpatient care. They will give you a drug test and ask about your history.
If you qualify for an outpatient program, they will provide customized group and individual therapy. They use cognitive behavioral therapy which trains people to think in a more positive way in order to change their negative behaviors. Some patients suffer from mental health issues and substance use disorder concurrently. In this case, the therapist may treat them with dialectical behavioral therapy which is a type of behavioral therapy designed for people who experience emotions more intently than other people.
I really liked the family therapy sessions. They give you a chance to discuss your addiction with your loved ones with a therapist in the room. They offer basic wellness services like yoga and meditation. They can provide medically assisted treatment if you need it.
