Southwest Behavioral Health – Erickson Outpatient

About Southwest Behavioral Health – Erickson Outpatient – Phoenix

The Erickson Outpatient Clinic is a behavioral health treatment center for adults in Phoenix, Arizona. As a behavioral health center they’re able to help you with drug and alcohol addiction as well as mental health issues and other behavioral health needs. They’re one of many clinics in the Southwest Behavioral Health network which is a large network of treatment centers in the area.

At this particular location you’ll be able to receive counseling to help you learn about and overcome your addiction. They know that everyone’s addiction is different so they’ll work with you one on one toward your specific goals and needs. Along with individual counseling they have group counseling to give you the added benefit of peer support.

What I find especially interesting about this clinic is their balance between addiction and mental health. So many people with addiction also have mental health conditions that complicate or play a role in their addiction. This clinic can treat both of these together as the intertwined issues that they are. They even offer family counseling to help bring your family back together and unite you as a team against addiction.

The clients at this treatment center have talked about feeling genuinely valued and cared for. Some think the administrative practices could use work but others have had smooth experiences all around. Clients especially love their counselors and say that the therapists are knowledgeable and compassionate.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

Aftercare Support

Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

Outpatient

Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

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.

Military Program

Serving in the military is both mentally and physically challenging, and can result in trauma that persists even after combat ends. Military programs are tailored to the specific and often complex needs of active duty personnel, veterans, and military families. Clients often access these programs through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).

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.
