Mental Health Treatment
It’s a fact - worry, stress and anxiety impact all of us. While these things impact each of us differently, once it begins to overwhelm our ability to cope and make good decisions, it's time to consider professional services to help effectively manage it all.
Through options like counseling, medication and an active support system we can help you strengthen your ability to cope.
We know it’s not just considering help, but getting help. We also know that, although slowly but surely, the public stigma of having a mental health issue is fading, many of us still struggle privately with seeking professional help because of the stigma we (privately) still attach to it.
There is nothing wrong with addressing our mental health. In fact, our mental health is equally as important as our physical health, and we specialize in your mental well being.
Substance Abuse Challenges
Addiction negatively impacts your normal functioning by impairing your physical, psychological, social and spiritual well-being. Breaking free from drug or alcohol addiction requires you to do two things:
Make substantial life changes and
Surround yourself with a group of qualified substance abuse professionals.
ABS licensed counselors provide professional treatment, guidance and support to help you through the process of eliminating chemical dependency. Addiction is a chronic, progressive and potentially fatal, but treatable, disease.
It doesn’t matter whether this is your first step or your next step on the road to recovery, ABS is here to help you through the process.
Suboxone
To say breaking an opioid addiction is never an easy task would itself be an understatement.
Although it may not be easy, it is completely achievable.
Sometimes people need additional support to help change their thinking, behavior and environment.
In these instances, Medication-Assisted Treatments (“MAT”), like Suboxone, benefit patients in remaining sober and reduce the side effects that come with withdrawal (which could lead to relapse).
Our board certified medical team will provide clients with the proper diagnosis and medication(s) to help achieve sobriety.
Trauma Services
ABS created its Trauma-Specifc Recovery Program (“TSRP”) to specifically address the significant impact a traumatic experience can have on an individual’s mental health.
ABS provides its clients with professional staff with a specific focus in trauma-informed care who provides the support and coping tools they need for healthy living after any major life-transitions they’ve experienced.
