               Outpatient services are an accumulation of individualized counseling, group counseling, drug and alcohol education, drug and alcohol testing, and different therapies which accumulated are called alcohol and drug addiction treatment. Outpatient status allows clients to continue working, going to school, or participating in other scheduled activities while seeking treatment.  Outpatient treatment services are offered to individuals once they are physically detoxed. Depending on the need, the individual can either have a full schedule, which is all day, or a partial schedule, which can be a few hours daily or weekly, depending on the need.  In some cases, individuals are under the care of a doctor for their detoxification medication and are eligible for outpatient treatment services simultaneously.

                Relapse Prevention: In teaching clients to manage stress and create a support structure, they are gaining important information to prevent relapse.  As part of addiction education, tools and techniques are provided in order to help avoid relapse.

              Dual Diagnosis:  Oftentimes, our clients not only suffer from the disease of alcoholism and drug addiction, but also from other mental disorders.  If it is suspected that a client has a mental disorder, they will be referred to a psychiatrist for further evaluation and medication, if needed.
