About Mariposa County Behavioral Health and Recovery Services

Mariposa County Behavioral Health and Recovery Services (BHRC) in Mariposa, California provides outpatient behavioral health and substance use recovery services. Services are offered to children, adolescents, adults and court ordered individuals.

Immediate Care and Affordable Treatment for Underserved Residents

BHRC emphasizes care to underserved communities and it’s run by the county to provide an affordable resource to residents. There is also a 24 hour crisis text and call lines available if you’re looking for immediate crisis intervention or emergency care.

Medications for Opioid Addiction

For opioid use disorder, BHRC provides medication assisted treatment (MAT) to ensure that you can manage withdrawal symptoms safely and reduce cravings. Treatment includes assessment, counseling, and case management to keep you on track whether you receive short term or long term MAT. There is also dual diagnosis treatment for individuals with mental health and substance use disorders.

Treatment Focused on Young Adults

For youth, substance use treatment includes individual and group counseling as well as relapse prevention. Relapse prevention here focuses on providing education about the dangers of using alcohol and other substances at a young age. I think this can be important for young adults to help them gain tools that will help set them for healthy changes in their lifestyle. When necessary, referrals can also be made to residential treatment.

The Mariposa Wellness Center

For individuals 18 or older who are looking to improve their mental health, they can visit the wellness center. It provides opportunities to socialize and build on skills like employment, daily living, and creative expression.

I like that it can operate as a place of respite too when you’re looking to reduce stress and learn to manage it better. You can also attend community events and go on field trips to continue connecting with others, and build a healthier lifestyle for a promising future.

Addiction Treatment Programs

Teen & Adolescent Program

Typically, a young adult program in California can guide individuals from detox, through initial treatment, and extends to aftercare. Treatment gives young adults what they need to reset their lives and move to the next stage of life free from addiction.

Adult Program

An adult program in California uses various therapeutic methods to treat a person who is dependent on an addictive substance. Individuals aged 18 and older are eligible for treatment, which focuses on breaking the cycle of addiction and learning how to maintain sober living.

Men's Rehab

Gender-specific addiction treatment programs may be more effective in treating men because they focus on unique needs of males. Men’s rehab in California is designed to help men process emotions and cope with stress in a judgment-free environment.

Women's Rehab

Women’s rehab in California provides a safe environment where women can work through addiction challenges surrounded by their gender peers. This often creates an environment that is more conducive to recovery.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

When a person is struggling with addiction, their actions and emotions may not be rational. Cognitive behavioral therapy in California helps individuals understand better why they feel and act certain ways and how those emotions and actions can lead to substance abuse.

Rational Behavior Therapy (RBT)

Therapists often use rational emotive behavioral therapy in California to treat addiction. The ABC (activating event, beliefs, consequences) framework is used to help participants identify irrational beliefs and reframe their thinking in healthier ways.

Assertive Community Treatment (ACT)

Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) is an integrative, community-based care strategy designed to address the needs of persons with severe and/or complex mental illness or behavioral disorders. ACT is typically provided by a multidisciplinary team of medical and mental health care providers, social workers, therapists, and other specialists, including addiction recovery professionals. These services are frequently provided in the home and community to clients in crisis, those who are clinically unstable, and those who are unable or unwilling to travel to a hospital or clinic for in-person treatment.

Moral Reconation Therapy (MRT)

Moral Reconation Therapy (MRT) is a form of psychotherapy commonly used in addiction recovery. Based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), moral reconation therapy (MRT) helps clients recognize unhealthy and/or harmful thought patterns and to replace them with more positive and productive ones. MRT is designed to empower clients to make healthier life choices and to more effectively align their behaviors with their moral values.

Levels of Care

Outpatient Rehab

When you choose outpatient rehab in California, you will meet with a counselor and attend support group meetings. The focus will be on restructuring attitudes and thoughts to reduce cravings and develop skills to prevent relapse. The length of time in outpatient rehab varies by individual, based on their recovery needs.

Dual Diagnosis & Mental Health

When you have a co-occurring disorder, it is essential to treat both your addiction and the mental health disorder. California dual diagnosis treatment provides this type of multidisciplinary approach, for improved recovery outcomes.
