About Norfolk Community Services Board Tidewater Drive
Norfolk Community Services Board assists Norfolk residents in Virginia with quality mental health and substance abuse treatment. Their goal is that you receive substance abuse treatment within your community, supported by friends and family. Staying connected to the people and environment that encourage your progress can help you feel more comfortable during recovery. I especially like that they accept Medicaid which makes paying for their services easier.
Their Tidewater Drive facility is located at Guy Avenue near Southern Shopping Center and Central Business Park. They offer outpatient mental health, substance use disorders treatment and peer recovery support. Suppose you’re dealing with severe substance use disorders or a mental health crisis. Their crisis intervention team can provide immediate support to help you stabilize and guide you to appropriate care. They also offer emergency services to address urgent medical needs or behavioral health crises to facilitate prompt care and stabilization.
Their substance use treatment may encompass counseling, therapy, and education sessions that help you develop coping strategies to manage triggers and cravings. Therapeutic interventions are provided in individual and group settings with the aim of equipping you with tools to prevent relapse and stay sober. This may involve life skills such as anger/stress management, effective communication, problem solving, conflict resolution and building healthy relationships.
Their peer recovery service grants you access to peers who have lived through similar experiences of addiction and recovery. Peers offer guidance, encouragement and practical advice that streamline your path to sobriety. They foster a sense of community and trust through shared experiences that make recovery feel more achievable.
This facility may also provide case management which involves connections to community social services that support your recovery journey as you continue rebuilding your life. These may include safe and secure housing, job training or placement, and education support.
