Tests for Mental Health and Drug Disorders

If you’re struggling with mental health symptoms, your primary care doctor may diagnose you with a mental illness. Extra evaluations and assessments can be helpful in ruling out other possible diagnoses or confirming a diagnosis.

We like that MelroseWakefield Hospital provides behavioral observations and tests to determine conditions like ADHD, autism, or substance use disorders. These tests can give you a clearer picture to ensure the best treatment plan.

ECT in St Melrose

Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is a safe treatment for psychiatric conditions such as severe depression and bipolar disorder. This is an effective intervention and especially beneficial if traditional treatments haven’t worked. These sessions are painless and usually last a few minutes.

Medications for adults and school-based counseling for younger clients are also available.

Addiction Treatment Programs

Adult Program

Each adult program in Massachusetts is designed to help individuals over the age of 18 recover from addiction to drugs or alcohol. The length of the program and its intensity varies, based on the needs of the individual.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Cognitive behavioral therapy in Massachusetts is a hands-on method that engages participants in changing their thought and behavior patterns. Rather than a talk-listen approach, individuals are actively involved in working with their therapist to treat their addiction.

Levels of Care

Inpatient Rehab

As the most intensive treatment setting, inpatient drug rehab in Massachusetts treatment involves 24/7 supervised care. At this level of care, you typically participate in individual, group, and family therapy sessions, and you may receive medication and additional recreational therapies.
