About Rensselaer County Mental Health – Troy
The Rensselaer County Mental Health Department is a public health care service in Troy, New York. This particular location is the Mental Health Department’s main administrative office but it also functions as their Unified Services Child and Adolescent Clinic.
This clinic serves clients who are kids, adolescents and young adults. They treat from the ages of birth to 21 years old so they help a lot of people who are starting to struggle with drug and alcohol addiction. They treat a wide variety of mental health conditions and needs but substance use disorder is one of them.
Your treatment here or your child’s treatment will be individualized to what you need for recovery. Typically you can expect individual therapy and group therapy sessions too. They also have family therapy here too because they recognize how important a family is in recovery, especially for a young person.
Accessibility is a big priority here because they aim to make mental health care available throughout the county. As part of this, they have telehealth services as an option if you don’t have transportation or you have other challenges with getting to the treatment center. They also have Spanish-speaking therapists on staff and they have interpreters available too. Finally, because this is the Mental Health Department’s head office, they can connect you to other resources too like their peer recovery counselors.
Some clients here say that this clinic has been a great help to their families and their mental health. On the other hand, there are also clients who say that the treatment center was unhelpful and they weren’t satisfied with the referral process so your experience here might vary.
