The center offers inpatient stabilization, medical detox and day treatment programming designed to address substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions.

Dual Diagnosis Treatment

Virginia Beach Psychiatric Center specializes in dual diagnosis care treating adults who face both substance use and mental health challenges in an integrated, hospital level setting. Inpatient and day treatment programs are designed to address the full spectrum of co-occurring disorders with comprehensive assessments, medication management and individualized care planning.

Treatment blends cognitive behavioral therapy and relapse prevention education, mindfulness and emotional regulation skills, and 12 step principles through individual, group and family counseling. I want to note that the partial hospitalization program is led by a board certified addictionologist and includes drug and alcohol testing, mid program assessments and structured group sessions five days a week. Former patients report a safe and supportive environment that builds coping skills and fosters meaningful progress.

Medical Detox and Crisis Access

The center provides medical detox in a secure environment with around the clock nursing support to manage withdrawal symptoms safely. I appreciate that the 24/7 Assessment and Referral Center offers confidential, no cost evaluations without appointment or referral required and a mobile assessment team can meet individuals in emergency rooms or hospitals, schools or workplaces for on site crisis support.
