Based in Fernandina Beach, Florida, Starting Point Behavioral Healthcare provides high-quality, integrated mental and behavioral health services to clients of all ages. Founded in 1992, they have decades of experience treating clients for a range of different issues. In terms of payment, they accept Medicaid.
All clients who come here for treatment receive thorough assessments, conducted by a highly trained clinician. They’ll gather information about your medical, psychiatric, and family history in a way that allows the team to gain a sense of context about your condition and your needs. From here, you’ll work closely with the clinician to set achievable treatment goals, and finalize an individualized treatment plan to guide them through recovery. Individuals can also access the facility’s drop-in center for more casual support.
As for the services that make up the outpatient program, clients can benefit from case management, as well as coordinated care to help link them up to relevant treatment and support for more severe conditions.
Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is also available as part of a structured four-phased program. Each phase features specific objectives and requirements for treatment. Medication management services are also available, including medical monitoring by a licensed psychiatrist. Clients can also access individual, group, and family therapy at this center, and are encouraged to attend these alongside medically managed care.
Addiction treatment and rehabilitation programs are also available here for individuals with first-time DUI offenses or misdemeanor drug charges. Similar support is also available to non-violent offenders to help them make positive, and hopefully permanent lifestyle changes to avoid future offenses.
