About Professional Psychological & Psychiatric Services – Saginaw
Professional Psychological & Psychiatric Services is a private corporation licensed by the state of Michigan and accredited by the Council for the Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities, known as CARF. They are located in Saginaw, Michigan in the Great Lakes Bay Region. The area was once a booming lumber town and was also known for its automotive history.
At this treatment center they provide comprehensive outpatient programming for mental health and substance use disorder. The clinic offers psychiatric, social, educational, psychological, and vocational services. Their philosophy is based on a holistic approach to health, understanding that you are influenced by several factors in your environment.
They work closely with several public health authorities and insurance providers to ensure that treatment and prevention services for mental health conditions and substance use disorders are available within the community. Public health contracts include the Saginaw County Community Mental Health Authority and the State of Michigan Department of Human Services.
They offer specific opioid addiction treatment programs in their outpatient treatment clinics. They provide an outpatient substance abuse counseling program that utilizes evidence-based treatment options like cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. They have outpatient mental health counseling too including anger management and family counseling.
The combination of mental health treatment and substance use disorder treatment makes them uniquely qualified to address dual diagnosis. A dual diagnosis is the co-occurrence of a mental health condition and substance use disorder. This combination requires specialized care since the diagnoses typically exacerbate each other, making diagnosis and treatment more complex. Dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder counseling is also called integrated treatment since they occur simultaneously.
Your program may begin with a psychiatric or psychological evaluation to determine a customized treatment plan. When required, physicians will review your medications and determine if other types of counseling are required, such as for domestic violence. If you require specific treatment, such as substance abuse and violence prevention or Assertive Community Treatment, this is also available.
They work with the local criminal justice system, providing a Michigan prisoner reentry initiative, which includes targeted case management to ensure your transition into the community addresses treatment for substance use disorders or a mental health condition.
