Services
Adult IOP
Our Adult Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) provides structured treatment for individuals overcoming substance use disorders. Through individual counseling, family therapy, and group sessions, we foster accountability and long-term recovery. The program emphasizes personalized care plans and high levels of support to address early and sustained recovery needs.
Substance Abuse Evaluation
We conduct professional substance abuse evaluations (SAE) for clinical and legal purposes. These assessments determine appropriate care plans while meeting court, employer, or legal requirements. Our process ensures accurate, compassionate evaluations to guide treatment decisions and compliance.
Medication Management
Our Nurse Practitioner collaborates on medication management for ADHD, anxiety, depression, and addiction-related symptoms. This service includes mobile detox for qualifying patients and genetic testing to optimize treatment effectiveness. Medications are integrated with therapy to support holistic recovery.
Family Therapy
Family therapy strengthens recovery by addressing dynamics that impact addiction. We educate families on avoiding enabling behaviors, identifying manipulation, and building supportive structures. Sessions focus on communication, accountability, and leveraging family strengths to improve treatment outcomes.
DWI Offender Education
Our 12-hour DWI First Offender class meets legal requirements for first-time offenses. Conducted over three days, the program includes education on substance use consequences and legal implications. Participants receive a certificate upon completion, fulfilling court-mandated requirements.
