About Marianna VA Clinic – Marianna
Marianna VA Clinic helps treat alcohol and drug addictions in veterans that are living in the Marianna, Florida area. They only offer outpatient care at this specific location so any veterans seeking round the clock inpatient care may need to be referred to a nearby clinic that offers that level of care.
However, while only being an outpatient center, you can still find some great services here. They offer dual diagnosis care for anyone suffering from mental health issues and addiction simultaneously. Their intimate partner violence support offers support for those who are experiencing physical abuse by their partner. This concern is prevalent among those in the veteran community, which is why this service is so important here.
They offer diabetes care through self-management, education, and support classes, as well as supplying insulin therapy and blood-glucose meter training. They can also give you nutrition advice and actually offer nutrition, food, and dietary care. It’s great that the VA coordinates so many aspects of your care, so you can receive addiction treatment services at the same place you go for your other healthcare services.
If you’re a veteran who has been exposed to something toxic during your time on active duty then they also offer toxic exposure screenings.
What I really love is their whole health program. This kind of care includes holistic treatment options like acupuncture to help manage pain without drugs, meditation and mindfulness training, yoa, tai chi, and qi gong classes and massage therapy.
They also may offer some more standard, albeit important and effective, counseling options such as individual therapy, group therapy and marriage or relationship counseling. These can really be effective when trying to learn how to identify negative habits and deal with any trauma from your past that is still affecting you today.
