About Anderson VA Clinic
Anderson VA Clinic is a treatment center that specializes in providing treatment for veterans who are experiencing substance use and co-occurring disorders. They’re located in Anderson, South Carolina and offer outpatient treatment that encompasses a variety of different services. You can go here to receive treatment planning, group therapy, medication management, case management and counseling. They accept Medicaid, Medicare and TRICARE insurance.
This VA clinic is helpful because it offers a whole-person approach to care that treats your mental, physical and emotional needs. Their case managers can assist with issues like housing placement and employment search. They can also help with advocacy and will work with you to create a recovery plan. This can help you hold yourself accountable and can motivate you to take steps toward recovery such as attending 12-step meetings and local support groups.
I like that they offer their services on an outpatient basis so you can go home when your treatment is finished for the day. You can go to sessions on your own, with a partner or with a group. When you’re not in counseling, you’ll be free to enjoy all of the sights around Anderson like Lake Hartwell and Denver Downs Farm. Conveniently located between Charlotte and Atlanta on Interstate 85, Anderson has a great restaurant and arts scene and lots of opportunities for outdoor recreation.
Another part of your treatment may be medication management. Your medical provider will complete a comprehensive psych assessment to gain a better understanding of what you’re experiencing and how they can help. Then, they will monitor and prescribe medication most appropriate for you and, if needed, they can adjust the dosage.
