About Oconee County – Mental Health – Seneca
Oconee County provides mental health adult outpatient services for residents of Seneca, South Carolina. For more than 40 years, they’ve provided these programs in individual and group therapy settings to address mental health conditions and substance use disorders. Their array of services begins with an initial assessment that helps to form the foundation of your treatment program.
They offer crisis intervention services when needed, as well as psychiatric medical assessments and medication monitoring. Your substance use disorder treatment can include dual diagnosis support if you have a co-occurring mental health condition.
Co-occurring mental health conditions must be addressed simultaneously to reduce the risk of poor outcomes since mental health and substance use disorders can interact and exacerbate each other. Their programs also include peer support services, offering support from individuals who have walked this recovery journey before you, and family outreach programs to support your whole family. They have special programs available for veterans of the Armed Forces and if you’re eligible for care from the VA Health system, they’ll help assist in your transition to that program.
They can also provide referrals to other community resources and services to help promote your recovery and support sustainable sobriety. Your program can also include psychoeducation on wellness and recovery to help make better decisions during stressful situations. This helps maximize your functioning. Depending on your needs, you may also receive supportive housing, case management, and help with finding employment. They offer an intensive community treatment specialized team that addresses people with serious and persistent mental illnesses who need a deeper level of care.
The mobile crisis program is staffed by trained masters level clinicians who can help deescalate an immediate mental health crisis that may occur with a substance use disorder. They are accredited by the Commission for Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) and publish an annual outcome analysis and plan for greater transparency. They work with several local insurance providers and will verify your insurance coverage before beginning treatment.
