About Community Health Center of New Britain
The Community Health Center is a network that offers extensive healthcare services including outpatient (OP) behavioral health services for adults, children, families, and groups. In-person, hybrid, and virtual services are available, and all care takes a culturally sensitive and trauma informed approach. You'll find one of their clinics out in in New Britain, Connecticut.
The behavioral health team at the Community Health Center includes drug and alcohol counselors, psychologists, family therapists, and social workers. This means you’ll get a whole person approach to treatment, with the psychological, behavioral, and social aspects of addiction being addressed at the same time.
It also means that if you have an additional mental health disorder, like depression or anxiety, alongside your addiction issues, you’ll receive treatment for that, too. They’ll also help out with any eating issues and other addictions, like gambling.
They provide individual and family counseling to help you understand the root causes of your addictive behaviors and heal fractured relationships with your loved ones. Plus, their Community Health Center offers a wide variety of groups including a suboxone group, relapse prevention group, dialectical behavioral therapy group, cognitive behavioral therapy, coping skills group, and gender specific groups.
One of the great things about the Community Health Center is that they work in partnership with the Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services and the Department of Children and Families to provide community-based care to at-risk families and children. They also have shelters for those who are experiencing homelessness or domestic violence.
