About Positive Directions – The Center for Prevention and Counseling – Westport

Positive Directions – The Center for Prevention and Counseling is a behavioral health organization in Westport, Connecticut, that provides mental health and addiction recovery services for children, teens, and adults. They offer preventative support, counseling treatment, and aftercare on an outpatient basis. You can participate in their services in person or online.

One thing that strikes me about this facility is their three tier approach to recovery. They start with prevention, partnering with local organizations, civic groups, and academic institutions to train the community on the importance of mental health care and the dangers of substance abuse.

Second, they offer treatment for people who are already facing those struggles. If you’re dealing with chemical dependency or a co-occurring disorder, you can visit them to receive therapeutic counseling sessions. You can attend your sessions on your own or with your family. They’ll work with you to create a treatment plan that meets your needs and will help you reach your recovery goals.

Finally, they focus on long term recovery. If you’re a client in their outpatient program, you can attend free recovery groups to help you stay sober and prevent a relapse. They also offer one on one peer support services for adolescents.

Clients call this team talented, professional, and compassionate. They also remark that the organization is an asset to the local community.

Programs

Adult Program

Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.

LGBTQ Program

Recovery is most successful when clients feel accepted and validated by their peers and treatment providers. Facilities that offer LGBTQ-inclusive programming are committed to creating a safe space where everyone can grow and recover without fear of judgment or discrimination. They will have dedicated policies in place to create a safe and supportive environment that fosters free expression.

Young Adult Program

Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.
