SERVICES

Assessment
All clients will be assessed to determine what treatment will best meet their needs.

Individual Counseling/Case Management
All clients will meet regularly with a qualified Chemical Dependency Counselor.   Counselors are also available to provide support to members of the client's family of choice.         

Groups:

Phase I: Core Group : This group meets 3 days a week.   The curriculum includes basic education and discussion about the disease of addiction, relapse prevention and developing skills to live a clean and sober life.

Phase II: Discovery : This group meets twice weekly.   This group continues to assist clients in developing life skills, which support their recovery as well as relapse prevention work.   It utilizes both education and group support.

Phase III: Relapse Prevention : This weekly group focuses on helping clients maintain long-term abstinence through on-going education including the development of relapse prevention strategies.

Monthly Monitoring : This monthly group is designed to monitor and support clients' on-going recovery and offer additional life skills for maintaining long term recovery.

Alcohol and Drug School : Call for information.


What will happen at the assessment?
You can expect to spend two hours with a qualified Chemical Dependency Counselor.   During this time they will gather information regarding your substance use history and current needs.   By the end of the assessment you will be provided with a diagnosis and recommendations for the most appropriate treatment.

What will it cost?
It may cost you nothing!   We believe that someone's ability to pay should not determine his or her access to services.   We therefore provide a sliding fee scale, accept Medicaid and most insurance plans, and have procured grants to support access to treatment.
