About White Mountain Mental Health – Littleton
White Mountain Mental Health, part of Northern Human Services, provides outpatient support for those facing substance use disorders. They’re based in quaint Littleton, New Hampshire, known for its antique stores and the historical Pollyanna Statue. For over 40 years, they’ve helped children and adults living with developmental disabilities. They do this through a variety of programs that aim to grow your independence, address any underlying mental health concerns and give you the tools to change your life.
Northern Human Services is one of two agencies in New Hampshire that are designated providers of care for mental health and developmental conditions. Their services include mental health support for adults and children, court-ordered substance abuse or mental health treatment and addiction counseling for adults. If you’re facing a dual diagnosis, they’ll be able to address both the mental and behavioral aspects of the two conditions. They can also connect you to local community resources if they aren’t able to provide the type of care you need.
White Mountain Mental Health offers residential services, but these services are limited to those facing mental health concerns or living with developmental disabilities. Their substance use treatment services include addiction counseling. They use methods like acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), which increases your understanding of your thoughts and feelings so you can respond to them in a controlled and calm manner. In the context of addiction, this can help you avoid turning to substances to numb uncomfortable emotions or cope with difficult situations.
