About Tri-County Mental Health Services CSTAR – Kansas City
Formerly known as Tri County Mental Health Services, Beacon Health provides mental and behavioral health care for children, teens, adults and seniors in Kansas City, Missouri. They offer age specific outpatient programs designed to help you work through different conditions, including substance use disorder. Some of the services they offer include therapy, crisis stabilization and psychiatric care.
Their outpatient addiction treatment program is designed for adults and adolescents between the ages of 12 and 17. Families and partners can also participate in the program to learn more about chemical dependency and how they can support their loved ones at home. All treatment plans are based on individual need and may incorporate varying degrees of individual, group and family therapy.
At each therapy session you’ll work through different aspects of your addiction and address any barriers standing in the way of your recovery. Some of the topics they focus on include stress, family relationships and trauma. If you need immediate care for a need that’s too acute for outpatient therapy, you can contact their mobile crisis response team, which operates on a 24/7 basis. They’ll connect with you in person or over the phone to route you to the appropriate resources.
One former client says that without this program she wouldn’t be where she currently is in life. Another mentioned that the team has great resources to support caregivers and family members. However, several past clients have experienced scheduling issues and find their therapist difficult to communicate with.
