SERVICES
Discovery Counseling offers traditional and holistic treatment options to adults and adolescents in an outpatient, intensive outpatient or day treatment setting.
We are all constantly in the process of learning and becoming new and more whole versions of ourselves. That process may involve the use of behaviors or substances in order to maintain our sense of safety in a chaotic world. At Discovery we believe that we can easily rediscover our sense of safety & inner strength, by integrating our pain and trauma to become whole, more at peace with the world, and able to see our past hardships as the gift that allows the strongest version of ourselves to shine forth.
TRADITIONAL SERVICES
Assessment and Treatment Planning
We do a full diagnostic assessment using the American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) criteria. This process is done without bias, and with respect for for the confidentiality of personal information. During this evaluation we will ask questions covering six dimensions, which are summarized as substance use history, medical history, psychological and family history, readiness to change, relapse potential and recovery environment. Based on this information and with the current DSM-V criteria for substance abuse and dependence, we establish a diagnosis and individualized treatment recommendations. We will coordinate with other healthcare professionals when appropriate, in order to provide the most comprehensive care possible for each of our clients.
Treatment planning begins at the time of assessment, and is an ongoing part of the treatment process. This is somewhat like a map which incorporates our recommendations with actions focused to address the main self-identified issues.
Education
It is more important than ever for people to have a basic understanding of alcohol and other drugs, their use and abuse, and the disease of addiction. Our education program consists of an assessment and plan, six education sessions, and an exit interview with a counselor. When necessary, education programs can be done on an individual basis or otherwise tailored to meet a person's needs. We will cover the pharmacology of the various classes of drugs such as alcohol, stimulants, opiates, marijuana and pharmaceuticals, as well as the effects of substance use on family systems and dynamics and the dangers associated with driving under the influence.
Outpatient Treatment
Treatment programs are individualized based on ongoing treatment planning, which is a collaborative effort between the client and counselor. Treatment consists of individual, group and family counseling sessions. Treatment for addiction or substance abuse may address many other issues, as addiction touches all areas of life.

This is also known as day treatment, and consists of participating in treatment activities 5 or more days per week for a short duration, stepping down to Intensive Outpatient once stable (3 + days/week). We coordinate care with your primary care physician or a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner to ensure
Referral for Detox or Residential Treatment
