About Outreach Project – Brentwood
Outreach Project in Brentwood, New York, is an adult alcohol and drug addiction recovery center. The facility focuses on providing patient centered care and a treatment approach that is multicultural and multifaceted. In family, group and individual counseling, therapists make use of evidence based practices to help clients heal from their addiction. The facility offers adult outpatient services, outpatient group counseling and co-located mobile medical and physical health services. They also offer specialized treatment for veterans and co-located adult community residences for men. Outreach Project wants their patients to gain the resources they need to cope with stress without using substances.
One thing I really admire about this facility is the level of care offered for veterans. Outreach Project has trained staff members who know how to handle issues related to veterans such as combat trauma and military culture. The facility is able to guide veterans to resources available through the government. They help military clients to heal PTSD and any other stressors that are a result of military service. Additionally, veteran support groups are available, and vocational assessment and planning are provided. Treatment also extends to the veteran’s support system, with therapy sessions available for their family and significant others.
In adult outpatient services, clients can receive counseling to address their drug use, assistance with co-occurring problems and life skills education. Therapeutic approaches that therapists will use to help clients include cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing. Patients also have access to medication assisted treatment (MAT) and gender specific group counseling.
