About Silver Spring Center, Montgomery County Department of Health and Human Services
Montgomery County DHHS operates two clinics for mental health and substance use, including the Silver Spring Center which provides behavioral health services for children and adults. This center in Silver Spring, Maryland also has social services such as food stamps, medical assistance and eviction prevention.
Services are also available in Spanish. They accept Medicaid only but I was glad to see that they also serve clients who have no insurance.
Emotional Support and Addiction Treatment for Youth and Families
The professionals at the Silver Spring Center can help youth and their families with behavioral issues, emotional or trauma concerns, and substance use treatment. They can treat co occurring disorders as well.
Services start with an assessment. They also provide individual, group and family therapy along with psychiatric medication management. The Silver Spring Center can match you with a case manager and also provides some school based services in the local school system.
One thing that caught my eye is that they work closely with the family, which is vital. Not only does substance use damage family relationships, but when the family works with their child in treatment, it helps them be better supporters during recovery.
