Ravenwood Health

Ravenwood Health in Chardon, Ohio is an organization that provides trauma informed care for those dealing with mental health issues and substance abuse. Treatment is available to youths and adults. Individuals can receive help through the intensive outpatient program.

This program is suitable for clients who have a moderate to severe substance use disorder. They provide patients with access to individual counseling and group treatment. Ravenwood Health offers criminal justice programming for individuals who’ve been involved with the court system. Clients who need to undergo detox have access to medication assisted treatment. The facility provides for drugs and alcohol as well as dual diagnosis.

During the assessment phase of treatment, clients will have their drug and alcohol history and their bio psychosocial history assessed. Psychological testing may be administered if it’s necessary. Staff members may also interview family members, probation officers and significant others.

Clients will be given feedback about their diagnosis and a recommended treatment plan. The individual counseling sessions are not only available to the clients but also to their families and significant others. They have two types of group programming. One focuses on patients questioning their substance use and what their options are for change, and the other focuses on patients who need maintenance support.

One thing I really like about Ravenwood Health is the prevention services they provide to the community. They have education programs that teach people life skills that can help them overcome substance abuse.

They also have programs that identify early warning signs of addiction and the importance of having parental involvement. In addition to these services, clients have access to peer support services where peers who have real life experiences with addiction can provide them with encouragement, insights and accountability.
