About UnityPoint Health Allen Hospital
Counseling for alcohol or drug concerns is part of the Employee Assistance Program at UnityPoint Health Allen Hospital, a treatment program in Waterloo. Employees of client companies can use the program, along with members of their immediate family.
I like their services. People 18 and over can use the mental health walk-in clinic. I also like that you don't need an appointment for a mental health assessment, and the clinic offers crisis counseling and medication prescribing.

The Employee Assistance Program includes short-term counseling and a confidential assessment, plus a referral if necessary. Allen Hospital also offers an evaluation for substance use. Video counseling runs by appointment on a tablet, a phone or a computer, so you don't travel to the hospital for that session.
The adult intensive outpatient program serves adults 18 and over with depression, anxiety or other distress, and follow-up referrals are set up when it ends.
Allen Hospital has 204 beds and serves the Cedar Valley in Iowa, and it's open 24 hours.
