Adults > Outpatient Therapeutic Tracks
The psychiatric track of treatment is geared toward reshaping thought processes and fostering positive cognitive experiences. Clients will discuss emotional and psychological problems to gain insight through constructive feedback. Clients are encouraged to develop a plan to prevent relapse and maintain good mental health. The Seven Pillars of Self Care are addressed which include medication management, nutrition, physical activity, leisure, importance of sleep, healthy support systems, and spirituality. Illness education groups are conducted in regard to understanding depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and anxiety disorders. Psycho-educational groups assist clients with developing coping skills to reduce stress, manage anger, grief, and resolve family conflict while encouraging self-esteem and self-awareness to promote personal growth.
The addictive diseases track is structured to provide treatment for those battling the cycle of substance abuse and/or other addiction including but not limited to gambling, sex, or food. Solution based cognitive behavioral therapy is employed to give patients the coping and relapse prevention skills necessary to live sober and healthy lifestyles. Patients will learn how to build a support network, how to utilize support groups in their community and 12 step meetings, and how to obtain a sponsor. Through treatment in the addictive diseases track, we want patients to come to the realization that they are not alone in their battle.
The dual diagnosis track was formulated to treat patients with a co-occurring psychiatric issues and addictive diseases. Treatment is equally devoted to an understanding of the psychiatric and addictive disease. In addition, education will allow patients to gain insight into how their mental illness can foster their addiction and conversely how their addiction and substance abuse will affect mental stability.
