Some problems are easier to work through with someone trained to help. Others are easier to face in a room with people going through similar problems. And sometimes the whole household needs a better way to talk.
Our mental health services are part of our addiction treatment center near Scottdale. Licensed clinicians provide individual, group, trauma, and family therapy to help with depression, anxiety, relationship strain, substance use, and behavioral addictions. Your plan may use one type of therapy or several.
Individual therapy gives you private time with one licensed therapist. You might work on anxiety that spikes under pressure at work, a low mood that won’t lift, grief, anger, or the way alcohol or another behavior has become your way of coping.
Your therapist picks techniques that suit what you’re dealing with. That might be cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to catch and test unhelpful thoughts, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills for strong emotions, or motivational interviewing to find your own reasons for change. You won’t be pushed to revisit painful experiences before you’re ready. Individual sessions can also continue after a program ends, as part of our aftercare program.
Our groups are kept to 8 to 12 participants, so everyone has room to speak and get the therapist’s attention. If you usually keep personal things private, a small group is easier to settle into than a crowded room.
A licensed therapist leads every session around a specific goal, keeps the discussion on track, and holds the boundaries that make hard topics safe to talk about. That structure separates clinical group therapy from a peer support meeting. Groups practice skills for cravings, stress, conflict, and difficult emotions so you can use them outside the room.
Trauma can shape how you sleep, how you react to stress, and how close you let people get, even when life looks fine from the outside. You don’t have to prove your experience was “bad enough” to get help; how it affects you now is what counts.
Our therapy here is trauma-informed and paced to your stability. Treatment may include grounding and emotion-regulation skills, and your clinician decides with you when to move into trauma-focused work. Deeper processing comes later, and your clinician adjusts the pace if it becomes too much. People can come primarily for trauma or for trauma alongside addiction. Our mental health clinic adds PTSD treatment and medication management when they’re needed.

When someone you love is struggling with mental health or substance use, the whole household changes around it. Family therapy helps you look at those patterns and build better ways of responding, without making you responsible for your loved one’s recovery.
Sessions can help family members say what worries them without blame, listen without reacting, and set boundaries about what they will and won’t do. They also give trust a structure to rebuild after secrecy or broken promises. Family therapy happens with the client’s consent, alongside their own treatment.
Our office provides outpatient care and can’t respond to emergencies, so use these lines first.
From the corner of North Decatur Road and Church Street, it’s about 2 miles, roughly 5 minutes.
The drive is about 2.1 miles.
Pay attention to whether you feel heard and whether sessions lead to things you can try. It’s fine to ask a therapist about their approach and what a typical session looks like. If the fit isn’t working after a few sessions, say so.
Our staff follows federal privacy laws for substance use and health records, so they generally can’t share what you say without your consent, apart from narrow legal exceptions. Group members agree at the start to keep what they hear in the room, but they aren’t bound by the same laws, so share at a pace that feels safe.
No, not at the start. You can begin without describing what happened. Later trauma-focused work depends on the therapy you and your clinician choose, and it’s paced to keep you steady.
Yes. We offer online family counseling when coming in person is difficult. With your consent, your therapist can help plan who joins and what you work on together.
Your therapist will tell you the length and frequency of your sessions when your plan is set.
