A.V.Y Counseling Services

AVY Counseling Services in an industrial corner of Orem, Utah, specializes in providing therapeutic counseling and individualized treatment services to clients of all ages, including veterans. In terms of payment, they accept Medicare, Medicaid, TRICARE, and other private insurance options.

Addiction treatment here is offered through specialized counseling sessions that seek to identify underlying factors that lead clients to turn to addictive behaviors. In these sessions, clients will be supported in solving the complicated challenges associated with their personal addiction, and better understand it in a way that promotes a lasting recovery.

Counseling for Different Populations

Weekly addiction recovery groups are also offered here. These are recommended for individuals who may benefit from a higher level of treatment. In these sessions, various topics are covered, and chosen in a flexible way to suit the needs of the participants involved. Some of the topics that might be addressed include treatment planning, stages of change, how to make change, learning from the past, and dealing with cravings.

This course of group sessions is described as a means of closing the gap between acceptance, and the full implementation of addiction treatment methods. Designed and developed in collaboration with leading addiction experts, this program helps those diagnosed with substance use disorder make changes to their behavior through best practices, and flexible guidance.

Get Primed for Life

One main programs is the Prime for Life class that runs for 16 hours. This is all about high-risk behaviors like impaired driving and substance use. It helps people rethink their choices and make safer, healthier decisions.
They also have addiction recovery groups that dive into topics like the stages of change, how to deal with triggers and learning from past mistakes. What I find interesting is that these groups are flexible so they can adapt to what the people in the group need.

Other addiction treatment services offered here include support for behavior addiction. This is ideal for individuals struggling with eating disorders, as well as gaming, pornography, social addictions, and similar issues. This center also offers general outpatient services like substance abuse assessments and drug testing.

In between sessions, you might try heading into the suburbs on the other side of the 15. There are some nice greenspaces where you can relax and get some exercise, like Orem Skate Park.
