Outpatient Services
Intensive outpatient and family support
Outpatient Services are clinically structured and designed to address the treatment needs of men and women to assist them in their efforts to overcome addiction and mental health issues, meet educational and vocational goals, support family reunification efforts, and sustain their long-term recovery, general health and well-being.

Services are provided in a flexible schedule. The duration, intensity and frequency of group and individual counseling sessions are determined by the assessed need of each participant.
Services Include:
•Evaluation/Assessment - Conducted within a structured and private interview setting by certified and/or licensed counselor to determine the most appropriate and effective level and intensity of care.
•Individualized Treatment Planning - Issues identified in the evaluation/assessment process are addressed through a systematic treatment planning approach, including the development of individualized objectives and goals that assist the client in successfully completing treatment.
•Education Groups - Clients learn about the substance abuse/dependence model and the effects of substance abuse/dependence on their physical and mental health, family, and employment.
•Group Counseling - Clients have an opportunity to develop support networks and obtain feedback in a safe and confidential setting from other clients experiencing similar addiction, mental health and other issues.
•Individual Counseling - Sessions facilitated by a certified counselor or licensed clinician offer clients a therapeutic venue in which to address treatment issues in more depth and to gain further insights. Individual counseling is often used as a means of helping clients come to terms with underlying issues and preparing them to participate more fully in the group process.
• Drug Screens - Random drug screening is conducted on all clients as a means of monitoring treatment compliance and progress.
