About West Linn VA Clinic – West Linn
Located in West Linn, Oregon, the West Linn VA Clinic offers specialized care to veterans in the area who are hoping to recover from substance use disorders. This also applies to individuals who suffer from dual diagnosis disorders, which are mental health conditions that are coupled with an addiction.
Co-occurring conditions can range from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) to depression and even schizophrenia. Many veterans struggle with these issues due to the trauma they experience during their time on active duty.
The levels of care at this clinic are limited but their outpatient program still offers some very useful services. Outpatient care gives you the benefit of returning home after sessions, but of course, if your condition is so severe that you need round-the-clock care then you may need to be referred to another location.
They also provide medication that can help reduce any withdrawal symptoms or cravings that may emerge when attempting to detox. They even have specialized services for members of the LGBTQ+ community and offer health maintenance services and community support.
Now let’s get to their counseling services. Their outpatient center offers some fundamental options for counseling, such as individual therapy, group therapy, and marriage or relationship counseling. To break these down, individual therapy gives you the chance to confront some deeper questions and issues with a professional therapist while group therapy puts you in a group setting. Either way, all of these services will help you identify triggers, deal with trauma and learn coping strategies for when you return to the outside world.
