About Carolina Dunes

Carolina Dunes Behavioral Health on Mercantile Drive Northeast in Leland, North Carolina, has mental health in-patient behavioral and mental health treatment for adolescents, adults, and seniors.

Their inpatient behavioral treatment includes psychiatric and addiction treatment for individuals who are there voluntarily or who may be placed there involuntarily due to risk to self or others. They are available for assessments and support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Teen Residential Therapy

The adolescent inpatient program is a therapeutic residential therapy program designed for youth between the ages of 12-17. Evidence-based treatment philosophies are used to help youth cope with the stresses of life and any mental health challenges, including substance abuse and addiction issues.

School is an important part of the daily structured program. I love their occupational, physical, and recreational therapies. Art, music, and expressive therapies are a part of the program that helps youth gain confidence, learn to express themselves, cope with past trauma, and set goals for a positive future.

Adults and Older Adults

There are acute treatment programs for adults and for those who are 50+ years of age. Psychiatric and behavioral programs start with assessment and evaluation by psychiatric professionals. I noticed that medication management and administration, group therapy, occupational and recreational therapy are a part of the program to help patients manage symptoms and stabilize their emotions.

Aftercare and Resources

While in acute inpatient care, there’ll be resources and referrals put in place so when patients leave the hospital, they’ll have support already set up to help them manage their mental health and recovery on a long-term basis.

Carolina Dunes accepts most insurance plans including Medicaid and Medicare. They also have help available if you need to apply for financial assistance due to lack of insurance.

Amenities

Art Therapy

Art and music are mediums that connect with our feelings, making them a great recovery tool during addiction treatment. Studies show that combining art/music and drug rehab can have a greater therapeutic impact than drug rehab alone, as you’re able to access parts of your brain and body that you may not have access to during traditional talk therapy. Benefits of art/music therapy include lowering stress and anxiety, promoting healthy neurochemicals, and providing stress relief.

Basketball Court

When used as part of an evidence-based treatment plan, basketball can boost physical and mental health, lead to sharper thinking, and facilitate improved self-esteem. Drug rehabs with a basketball court also place a focus on teamwork and cooperation.

Addiction Treatment Programs

Teen & Adolescent Program

When individuals participate in a young adult program in North Carolina, they feel more at ease in a setting that is age-appropriate. Activities, therapies, and aesthetics are all tailored for this age group, so participants can feel comfortable and are more likely to complete the program.

Adult Program

An adult program in North Carolina typically combines individual and group counseling, medical treatment, and various other therapies to treat substance use disorders. Treatment can take place in an inpatient or outpatient setting.

Sound & Music Therapy

Sound & Music Therapy are complementary treatment modalities frequently used in addiction recovery to support clients’ physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing through the use of auditory stimuli, from nature sounds and Tibetan singing bowls to drum circles and rhythmic melodies. The treatment is believed to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression and may offer relief for those experiencing chronic pain, which can decrease clients’ risk of addiction relapse.

Levels of Care

Inpatient Rehab

When you choose inpatient drug rehab in North Carolina, you’ll live at a rehab facility for 28 to 90 days, depending on the program. Typical methods of treatment include group and individual therapy and family counseling.

Dual Diagnosis & Mental Health

Some of the most common co-occurring mental health disorders include anxiety, depression, and eating disorders. When these are present alongside substance use disorder, dual diagnosis treatment in North Carolina is necessary to address both conditions.
