About Tioga County Department of Alcohol & Drug Services – Satellite Clinic, Waverly – Waverly
Tioga County’s alcohol and drug services department is located in Waverly, New York. They provide outpatient care and support for residents dealing with substance use disorders. This includes individuals and families of all ages. They also treat dual diagnosis patients. These are patients dealing with both addiction and mental health issues simultaneously.

This is made possible by their expert care personnel including certified counselors, nurses and licensed therapists. These professionals are grounded in proven therapeutic practices that facilitate lasting recovery. Their outpatient program primarily consists of substance abuse evaluation and counseling. Clients participate in both individual and group sessions to address the root of their addiction and build coping skills. Their group counseling cuts across various recovery areas.
This includes intensified outpatient, relapse prevention and transition groups. One group focuses on those who are beginning treatment and another specializes in adolescent groups. The latter serves individuals aged 13 to 17 who meet the criteria for a substance abuse or dependence diagnosis. The intensified outpatient group involves six hours of treatment each week divided into three group sessions. Clients receive addiction education and learn to build a sober support network and maintain sobriety.
The relapse prevention involves four hours of weekly therapy divided into two sessions. Emphasis is on building robust coping mechanisms and preventing relapse with support from the intensified outpatient sessions. The transition group is a two-hour weekly session that helps clients reintegrate into the community. All group sessions include additional individual counseling.
Aftercare services may involve connections to community resources for ongoing support. This facility also provides specialty services for judicially involved individuals. This includes DWI evaluation and forensic assessment. The DWI evaluation determines if individuals charged with DWI need treatment and helps them meet the requirements to regain their driver’s license. They provide forensic assessments to individuals incarcerated in the Tioga County Jail. This service includes treatment recommendations and referrals.
