About Aspire Behavioral Health Outpatient
Aspire Behavioral Health Outpatient offers affordable, quality treatment for adults aged 18 and older in Albany, Georgia. As part of Georgia’s 25 Community Service Boards, they provide an intensive outpatient program (IOP) for dual diagnosis substance use and psychiatric disorders.
Their treatment accessibility really stood out to me. Since they’re a safetynet provider, you can access services regardless of your ability to pay. They prioritize people who are underinsured or underserved. That said, you won’t have to compromise on quality care just because of finances.
Intensive outpatient programs provide in depth care as you live at home. Their program offers five hours of daily treatment Monday through Friday. You'll participate in comprehensive programming with customized treatment plans with your strengths and needs in mind. They strive to help you build coping skills to improve your functioning in society and enhance your quality of life.
An interesting feature I noticed is their programs prioritize group counseling and addiction education. Group settings can give you insight into the experiences of peers on similar paths as you learn and grow in recovery. You can also enhance your interpersonal skills and build essential connections with peers that you can take with you after treatment.
I also think it's great that they offer individual support based on your unique needs. Although group therapy is their main approach you can still access private counseling sessions. Having this option can help you discuss situations you don't feel comfortable sharing with everyone. You can also access educational activities and 12 Step programming to aid in your recovery journey.
I also appreciate that they provide trauma informed care. Traumatic experiences can often play a role in addiction and your receptiveness to treatment. Your personalized treatment plan will account for your past experiences and provide tools to overcome them. They help you address these challenges and find healthy ways to recognize and cope with triggers.
