About Community Health Resources Willimantic
Community Health Resources in Willimantic, Connecticut, offers substance use screening and treatment recovery for teens and young adults. They follow a community reinforcement approach model that teaches teens to handle problems without using drugs or alcohol. Clients can pay for services through Medicaid, Medicare and most major health insurance policies.
Helpful Skills To Promote Change
Over the course of eight months, clients will undergo individual therapy sessions. These sessions will focus on understanding how substance use is impacting their present and how it might impact their future.
Counselors will help patients with practicing positive behaviors and developing healthy peer groups. I like that counselors will also educate patients on how effective communication and positive interactions with family members can help them recover from substance use. Parent and family sessions will be included in the treatment plan if necessary.
Clients will learn to replace substance use with sober social activities. Willimantic offers various things you can do for recreation, such as walking on Frog Bridge or visiting the Connecticut Eastern Railroad Museum. The Hop River Trail is just across the Willimantic River.
Additional Services For Healing
Community Health Resources has separate locations in Willimantic that can provide additional services to support your recovery. Medication assisted treatment is available for clients who are struggling with withdrawal symptoms. The medications I noticed include Vivitrol and Suboxone.
The team of individuals helping you throughout the treatment will include medical professionals, therapists, case managers and peer recovery coaches. They will ensure you have personalized support and confidential, discreet care.
