Treatment Center Information

Treatment Services and Communities Served

Chemical Dependency / Drug Addiction Assessment - Adult, Teen - Adolescent
Chemical dependency assessments are done for adults to determine what level of care is most appropriate for the individual.
Referrals can be made by the individual seeking treatment, business and industry, hospitals, etc.

Outpatient Individual Therapy
Traditional one on one hourly counseling focuses on issues such as family of interpersonal relationships, stress, anxiety and other emotional concerns in conjunction with chemical dependency.

Outpatient Group Therapy
Weekly group therapy focuses on strategies for maintaining a sober, healthy lifestyle and developing a supportive external environment for recovery. This group also assists in identifying and resolving emotional/behavioral issues that could lead to relapse. Clients may continue with aftercare following treatment.

Outpatient Family Therapy
This program provides the family with education and support regarding the disease of chemical dependency. We believe that families become ill when one or more members are chemically dependent and that the illness will progress without treatment. The program's goal is to offer awareness and alternatives to the frustration and confusion that results from the disease of chemical dependency.

Intensive Outpatient Program - Adult
The purpose of adult intensive outpatient program is to provide a structured informational, educational and supportive therapeutic setting to identify significant clinical problems, which could interfere with the client's recovery from chemical dependency.

Treatment is individualized and may include individual, group and family sessions. The Intensive Outpatient Program can consist of up to 9 hours a week.

Outside involvement in a 12-step program is encouraged.
