About Cooweescoowee Health Center
The Cherokee Nation Cooweescoowee Health Center is located in Ochelata, Oklahoma. They specialize in treating adults who are struggling with behavioral health and substance abuse disorders. They provide outpatient services which include individual counseling, trauma informed care, group therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), clinical assessments, dental care and patient benefit coordination.
Outpatient treatment can provide more flexibility and help you improve your time management skills. One of the major benefits of doing outpatient is that it allows you to maintain prior commitments like taking care of family, employment or continuing education while still being able to have time for your healing. A clinical assessment will be completed during the intake process to get a better understanding of what you need, the level of care most beneficial for you and goals you wish to achieve during treatment.
CBT is a holistic therapy utilized to help you identify, manage and change your thinking patterns. This therapy encourages positive ways of thinking and strengthens your problem solving skills. This can boost your self esteem, improve brain function and build resilience.
Trauma informed care can help provide a better understanding of trauma and the way it impacts your well being and day to day life. Prior painful experiences can stir up anxiety or stress even if you’re on the right track. This technique helps reduce the chance of re-traumatization and helps you manage emotions and develop coping skills to use when challenges arise.
Patient benefit coordination helps combat any hindrances or barriers that could prevent you from getting the level of care or services you need. They provide advocacy, support and linkage to resources you can use throughout your healing process. They can also assist with employment job search, housing assistance or connecting you to a more intensive level of care.
