The assessment may include a psychosexual evaluation and boundary review to get a better understanding of a client’s mental health issues.
Once the treatment team has a full assessment and understanding of any underlying issues, they’ll develop a plan to resolve your addiction and/or mental health issues, promote your professional success, and enhance your personal growth. Treatment may include psychiatric hospitalization, SUD treatment, therapy, and education.
