Substance Use Services

We address substance use by providing high-quality, individualized treatment with a focus on personal goals and every individual’s life experiences. Highly trained substance abuse professionals help individuals, and their families, develop goals, structure, and positive living environments necessary for success. All levels of care are able to incorporate group, individual, and family counseling while utilizing evidenced-based treatment models.

The following services are provided for youth and adults:

Extended Outpatient (EOP)

Extended outpatient is for people requiring additional education regarding their substance use. Individuals that qualify for extended outpatient care attend a minimum of six hours of treatment per month in the form of group and individual sessions.

Continuing Care

Continuing Care is for those who have completed an outpatient, residential, or day treatment program and are in need of ongoing individualized support.

Operating While Intoxicated (OWI) Assessments

OWI Assessments are available at a cost of $125 and due at time of service. Urinalysis (UA) tests will be billed directly to your insurance.
