Alcohol & Drug Treatment Services Program

Description Outpatient treatment services are available to adolescents, adults and families.  Services consist of intake evaluation, individual, group and family counseling.  We offer a wide array of evidence-based practices as well as youth and women specific options.

Program Philosophy

• Addiction to alcohol or other drugs is shown by a person not being able to control use in spite of harmful consequences.

• Alcohol and other drug abuse effects all parts of a person's life.

• Treatment that works must address all facets of the problem.

• Recovery depends on the person staying free of all mood changing drugs, unless taken    for valid medical reasons.

• Being clean and sober is only the first step. Ongoing evaluation occurs to ensure that the client's treatment needs are being met.

• Alcohol and other drug dependence effects the whole family. Education and treatment are offered to all persons living with the person in treatment.

• Self-help programs such as Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous are used to aid the individual in forming a lifelong support system.

Program Requirements

Having an evaluation does not always mean an individual will be admitted to treatment. After the evaluation, clients will be referred to a level of care deemed appropriate to meet their needs.  This may include education services, outpatient, intensive-outpatient, residential, and on rare occasions, detoxification and/or hospitalization services.  We also refer for conjoint services when necessary including psychiatric consultation, medical consult and mental health services.

Treatment Fees

Harney Behavioral Health bills private insurance as well as the Oregon Health Plan.  We offer a sliding scale fee based on household income for those who do not have insurance.
