About New Mexico VA Health Care System – Durango CBOC – Durango, Colorado

Durango VA Clinic is a veterans addiction treatment center that offers rehab services for men and women living in the Durango, Colorado, area. They offer different services to help combat drug and alcohol addictions but they also treat mental health issues through their dual diagnosis program.

This kind of care, which treats co-occurring conditions, aims to treat the mind and the body simultaneously. In the veteran community, it can be a somewhat familiar occurrence to find that time spent in the armed forces may cause some trauma. In some cases, issues such as depression, anxiety disorder, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and PTSD can become prevalent throughout one’s life. For this reason, it’s important for VA clinics to treat the mind alongside addiction.

Another important service you may find at this clinic, depending on the severity of your addiction, is their medication-assisted treatment (MAT) program. In some cases where the ties of addiction may be too strong to face alone, it’s important to surround yourself with a team of medical professionals who can help you recover more safely. Their MAT services give you constant supervision and access to medications such as Suboxone or Vivitrol to help reduce withdrawal symptoms and cravings.

At this clinic, you’ll receive outpatient care. This is a benefit for those with milder forms of addiction since you’ll have the freedom to return home or to any outside obligations once your day of therapy is over. However, if this level of care isn’t intensive enough for you then they can help you find an inpatient or residential center that offers 24-hour services.

One of the main benefits of visiting a VA clinic is their counseling. With options like individual therapy, group therapy and marriage or relationship counseling, there’s plenty to keep you busy while you journey forth toward a happier, healthier and drug-free life.
