About Oconee Center Behavioral Health Services
The Oconee Center is a community service board that provides behavioral health services to six counties in Georgia. Through their Addictive Disease Outpatient Services in Midgeville, Georgia, you’ll find programs like outpatient mental health care, addiction support, case management and crisis stabilization. Programming provides a rehabilitative and supportive environment for adults and adolescents to heal and connect with community resources. These rehab services will teach you how to self-manage recovery and develop coping skills.
Oconee Center has outpatient mental health services and an intensive outpatient program for substance abuse. Using a holistic approach with the 12 Steps, the intensive outpatient program (IOP) consists of group and individual counseling with relapse prevention skills training. This program generally lasts for 30 days, and you’ll create a personalized treatment plan. Addictive disease services will connect you with transitional or permanent recovery housing. If you choose to live in connected housing, you’ll receive employment and vocational training.
Adults with mental illness can access an outpatient program that will include basic medical care, HIV testing, counseling and care management. They also offer pharmacy services like flu vaccines. If you need more intensive care, Oconee Center offers a day treatment program for adults with co-occurring disorders. This program meets Monday through Friday from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm. You’ll participate in group activities that promote empowerment, self advocacy and community living skills. This program will help you become more independent while being supported by professionals and your peers. You’ll be encouraged to practice real skills in order to get experience before you use them out in the community.
