About Bay Ridge Counseling Center

Part of the Jewish Board, New York’s largest mental health network, the Bay Ridge Counseling Center offers dual diagnosis outpatient care to those suffering from mental health and substance use disorders in Brooklyn, New York. They accept Medicare, Medicaid, other state financed health plans, and county and local government funding. Services are available in English, Russian, and Spanish to serve a more diverse clientele.

MAT and Individualized Care Plans

Emphasizing individual care plans tailored to each client’s unique needs and goals, they provide regular outpatient and intensive outpatient programs. They also offer detoxification services, using medication assisted treatment (MAT) to aid clients in a safe withdrawal process. Recreational therapies such as hiking and sports are included.

They have a dedicated aftercare and alumni program to help their clients avoid relapse and to assist in their long term recovery journey.

Services for a Range of Patient Populations

Services are provided for adults, transitional age young adults, and seniors. I appreciate that there are special programs for individuals with post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), as well as veterans and military families. I like that they welcome members of the LGBTQ+ community at their facility. They also treat persons with HIV/AIDS and children with serious emotional disturbances (SED).

Mixed Client Reviews

I found that reviews of the facility are mixed, with a 2.3 rating out of 5, based on 12 reviews. Positive comments recognize the quality of care from the staff. There are, however, concerns raised about organizational efficiency and communication.

Green Spaces of Brooklyn

Close to several bus and subway lines, Brooklyn offers all the amenities of a big city with several green spaces thrown in. The Brooklyn Botanic Garden, founded in 1910, is 52 acres of themed gardens perfect for serene contemplation.

Prospect Park features a towering forest in the middle of the city, 526 acres for picnicking, wandering, or a visit to the Brooklyn Museum. Brooklyn Bridge Park offers picturesque Manhattan views along its 85 acres of Brooklyn waterfront. Walk or bike across the Brooklyn Bridge for a bit of scenic recreation.
