About Community Healthlink – Counseling Center

In northern Fitchburg, Massachusetts, you’ll find one of Health Alliance-Clinton Hospital’s campuses. At this hospital, they provide services and treatments for a wide array of medical and mental healthcare needs. If you’re facing an addiction to drugs or alcohol, they can offer you caring and professional outpatient services through their Community Healthlink clinic.

Providing Flexible, Accessible Care

What stands out to me about this center is that its multidisciplinary team includes psychiatrists, psychiatric nurses, social workers, psychologists, counselors and several other types of professionals. This allows them to have a skilled professional ready to offer care and treatment that’s tailored to your needs, no matter how unique your personal, family or professional circumstances may be.

They’re particularly skilled at caring for individuals with an addiction and a concurrent mental health diagnosis. They offer individual counseling, medication management services, psychiatry and family counseling to help strengthen the base of support at home. Another aspect of their center that I admire is that they offer the services of an interpreter at no extra cost.

Making The Right Services Accessible

As part of a broader network of mental healthcare facilities, they offer assessments, including DUI evaluations, and can refer you to an inpatient or partial hospitalization program within their network if your needs call for a more intensive program. They also make all these services available to people on Medicaid and Medicare plans.

Amenities

Private Rehab

Residential Setting

Residential drug rehab provides the comforts of home with the therapeutic support needed to successfully recov...er. Benefits of an inpatient program include increased safety, a higher success rate, and the time and distance given to focus on recovery. Residential drug rehabs are often the preferred method of treatment, as they can be tailored to meet specific needs, offer focused therapeutic care, and provide the necessary tools to sustain recovery.

During this time, you will attend therapy sessions and support group meetings, for ongoing accountability and development of sober-living skills.

Dual Diagnosis & Mental Health

If you meet the diagnostic criteria for two or more conditions, you have a dual diagnosis. Massachusetts dual ...diagnosis treatment is designed to address both conditions simultaneously, for improved recovery outcomes.
