About Community and Family Resources Ames Outpatient
Community and Family Resources is a behavioral health provider in a commercial corner of Ames, Iowa. They provide individuals with treatment for mental illness and substance abuse. Their ultimate goal is to see the residents of Story County achieve healthy behavior and lifestyle. Some of the services you can receive include outpatient treatment, recovery support services and specialized services.
To get started, you can choose to schedule an evaluation or walk in and receive a same-day evaluation. Their case management team will work with you to come up with a treatment plan. This can include medication assisted treatment (MAT) through UCS Healthcare and counseling.
Their outpatient services include an intensive and extended outpatient program for both adults and adolescents. In group therapy, you’ll gain knowledge about relapse prevention, triggers, and stress reduction. One treatment method that your counselor utilizes is dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT). This method helps to address any trauma or emotional pain causing your addiction and teaches you skills to help with your addiction, such as mindfulness and emotional regulation.
DBT is among the specialized services offered at Community and Family Resources. Another specialized service offered is distance treatment. A counselor can conduct secure sessions with you over a webcam or phone.
Peer recovery coaches are also available to provide unique insights based on their personal experience of overcoming addiction. They can also help you with accessing treatment services, applying for jobs, and identifying health supports.
One other specialized service I like that they provide is the Prime for Life: Drunk Driving School. It provides 12 hours of education for individuals who’ve been charged with drunk driving offenses. Clients will learn ways to reduce their risk of drinking.
Community and Family Resources desires to make sure all of their clients get as much assistance as they need to be successful in their recovery. This is why they provide numerous recovery support services, such as transportation assistance, housing assistance, and wellness activities. In between therapy sessions, you can take time to check out some of the great attractions in Ames, like the Reiman Gardens and the Ames History Museum.
