About Chesterfield Mental Health Support Services

Chesterfield County Department of Mental Health Support Services (MHSS) in Chesterfield, Virginia, provides substance use disorder services for Chesterfield County residents. This includes children, adolescents and adults affected by substance addiction. Their adult recovery services primarily involve medication assisted treatment. This evidence based method uses medication and therapy to treat substance use.

Their clinic uses various FDA approved medicines for their medication assisted treatment. These include naltrexone, Suboxone and Vivitrol. It all depends on your unique condition. They may prescribe Antabuse and Campral for alcohol addiction. These medications reduce withdrawal symptoms and curb cravings. That way you can undergo counseling.

Counseling helps you address the underlying causes of your addiction and build coping and relapse prevention mechanisms. These combined approaches enable you to deal with both physical and psychological aspects of the addiction. The program also involves ancillary services such as case management, harm reduction and recovery support. The latter involves connection to mutual aid meetings like AA or NA groups for ongoing support.

Harm reduction tools like NARCAN, testing strips and drug disposal pouches are available to promote safe dosing practices and reduce overdose risks during recovery. The program resources are quite broad. They even offer an opioid overdose and naloxone education known as REVIVE. This program provides training on recognizing and responding to overdose using NARCAN. You can also access community resources like transportation, healthcare and housing via their case management services. They may refer you to sober living facilities within the community for continued ongoing care. A special recovery program is available for children from birth to 18 years.

Their programs also include services for individuals involved with the criminal justice system. Also known as CAST, this confidential short term program focuses on mental health and substance abuse treatment as well as prevention and intervention for those at risk of addiction or relapse. The program involves intensive support, therapy and case management.

It’s also great that they support same day access for most of these services. Comments from past clients reflect mixed experience with the majority acknowledging the facility’s impressive quality of care.

Other Forms of Payment

Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.

Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.

Military members, veterans, and eligible dependents have access to specific insurance programs that help them get the care they need. TRICARE and VA insurance can help you access low cost or no cost addiction and mental health treatment. Programs that accept military insurance often have targeted treatment focused on the unique challenges military members, veterans, and their families face.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient
Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

Treatments

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

When you enroll in drug rehab in Virginia, a treatment plan is designed by professional staff in order to help you overcome drug addiction and modify addictive behaviors. This may include evidence-based treatments, group and individual therapy, and relapse prevention.

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Programs

Teen Program
Teen programs are designed to address the unique pressures teens face, pressures that can drive them to experiment with dangerous, addictive substances. They need programs that meet them exactly where they are and give them tools for long-term recovery. Therapy can help teenagers understand and work through underlying issues so they can reclaim the life ahead of them.
adult-program thumbnail image
Adult Program
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
program-for-women thumbnail image
Program For Women
Rehabs for women provide a safe, nurturing space for female clients to heal. These treatment programs consider the specific obstacles that women can face during recovery and place a special emphasis on mental, social, physical, and reproductive health. They explore how each woman's experience has shaped the trajectory of their substance use, addressing issues such as sexual abuse and past trauma.
child-program thumbnail image
Child Program
The providers who specialize in the children's rehab space understand the specialized needs that this population faces. School-based and social services such as tutoring and family counseling are often central to treatment. Child programs may also address the needs of youth experiencing substance abuse in the home, including a parent's or sibling's addiction.

Clinical Services

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

Don t go to Dr. Dexter. When I first met her I told her I think I m bipolar and she said I m not I m just stressed it took 2 more hospitalizations and another doctor to diagnose me. When I told her I think I could be autistic she said autistic people can t work in a dental office insinuating that autistic people can t work. When I gained weight on my meds she said it was my diet even though it s a known side effect of meds. She told me she can t prescribe me a medication because of lebr�n James son? She verbally confirmed with me she was okay with me getting a prescription from my primary care doctor then when my doctor contacted her she told her no. She specializes in drug use NOT mental health.

Chesterfield Mental Health serves Chesterfield County residents because its a county business not a state or private one. So you must live in Chesterfield County to receive service here. I've dealt with this business on and off for 5 years or more. The assessment of a juvenile was easy, its done walk in ao we for there juat after they opened. Lots of legal stuff upfront then down to explaining why were seeking help. Their interactions with my child were as expected, happy upbeat tones and playing to make it a less stressful experience. They assigned a counselor and set an appointment only a week out. It's been impossible to find a counselor for a young child which is why I sought out CMH again to help my child. If you need help please give them a chance especially if you are struggling to get a young child help.

Do not waste your time ! Truly the most mismanagement I ve ever seen . I had a caseworker for my case . She s been on leave for 4 months . Can t get appointments or a case manager that will help . Literally they have given me 5 who literally do nothing or try to help . So I couldn t get a appointment the caseworker the assigned to me (third one ) calls goes just let me know when your ready to cancel services . Literally first thing she said . If this was a emergency room everybody would be deceased . I m truly horrified that a mental health place is supposed to help people not make them worse by neglecting them . I have found a new mental health facility . I wanna give them zero stars !
