About North Central Behavioral Health Systems – La Salle
North Central Behavioral Health Systems (NCBHS) is located in La Salle, Illinois. They provide intensive outpatient addiction treatment to adults and adolescents in Central and North Central Illinois. They also offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT), DUI evaluations, prevention programs, case management services, crisis intervention services and mental health counseling.
To ensure treatment is as accessible as possible, they offer online counseling services for those who aren’t facing serious mental illnesses. Online therapy is completely secure and provides the same support as in-person therapy, while being much more flexible.
Their intensive outpatient addiction programs consist of support groups where you can share your experiences and learn healthier coping mechanisms with peers who can sympathize with your journey. The programs are split by age to ensure group discussions are relevant to the attendees because addiction affects every age group differently. These programs are also suitable for those with a dual diagnosis.
Something I like about NCBHS is that the length of your treatment is easily adjustable. They can provide intensive, long-term support for chronic mental health conditions, substance use disorders (SUD), psycho-social rehabilitation and other long-term concerns. This is great when dealing with chronic behavioral health concerns or when starting addiction treatment for the first time.
They also provide short-term, solution-focused counseling for things like stress, depressive episodes or situational anxiety. If you’re sober but concerned about relapsing due to a life event then this type of brief program can support you through the difficult time. They’ll give you tools to manage yourself well and remain sober while working through the challenge.
