About Lorain County VA Clinic – Elyria
Lorain County VA Clinic treats veterans who are living in the Sheffield, Ohio, area and suffering from drug and alcohol conditions. They also specialize in treating mental health, so any conditions such as anxiety, PTSD, depression, bipolar disorder or schizophrenia, that may be co-occurring with your addiction can be treated here, too. Many veterans unfortunately face trauma while they’re serving in the military, so treatment for mental health is just as important as addiction treatment.
They also offer both inpatient and outpatient services, which gives you a lot of variety to work with, depending on your specific needs. Some people might only need a few hours of treatment per week in order to sustain their sober life, while others may require medical supervision that is offered round-the-clock to ensure you are safe and not relapsing. Their outpatient care provides less supervision than inpatient treatment, but it lets you keep any outside commitments you may have, such as work or school.
Another major plus about this location is that they offer medication assisted treatment (MAT). You won’t find that at every clinic. This means that with the aid of medications such as Vivitrol or Suboxone, you can reduce the severity of your withdrawal symptoms and lessen the threat of cravings, which can eventually cause the risk of relapse. They also provide health maintenance, community support and counseling.
Their counseling includes individual therapy, group therapy and marriage or relationship counseling. Therapy can help you deal with past trauma, learn coping skills and identify triggers.
They also offer unique women’s services. These include military sexual trauma therapy and maternity care.
