Medical briefcase icon 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.

inpatient iconInpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

aftercare iconAftercare

Clients engaged in a rehab aftercare program have already completed high-level treatment and have begun to develop essential recovery skills. Rehab aftercare services are designed to support clients' sustained sobriety as they reintegrate into their home, workplace, and community. Case managers, care teams, and clients design the customized service portfolio that will best support the client's long-term sobriety. Clients may receive peer coaching, 12 step program induction, vocational training, and relapse prevention services.

heart-hands iconIntervention Services

Intervention services helps family or friends of addicts stage an intervention, which is a meeting in which loved ones share their concerns and attempt to get an addict into treatment. Professional intervention specialists can help loved ones organize, gather, and communicate with an addict. They can guide intervention participants in describing the damage the addict's behavior is causing and that outside help is necessary to address the addiction. The ideal outcome of an intervention is for the addict to go to rehab and get the help they need.

couples-therapy iconCouples Therapy

Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life.

Addiction often involves intense situations and emotions. Dialectical behavior therapy helps you understand and regulate your emotions and better manage the situations that evoke those feelings.

family iconFamily Therapy

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

intervention iconGroup Therapy

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.

mental-health iconIndividual Therapy

life-skills iconLife Skills

Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.

desert iconMotivational Interviewing

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a clinical approach to helping people with substance abuse issues and other conditions shift behavior in positive ways. It is more goal-oriented than traditional psychotherapy, as MI counselors directly attempt to get clients to consider making behavioral change (rather than wait for them to come to conclusions themselves). Its primary purpose is to resolve ambivalence and help clients become able to make healthy choices freely.

nicotine iconNicotine Replacement Therapy

Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) is a way of getting nicotine into the bloodstream without smoking. It uses products that supply low doses of nicotine to help people stop smoking. The goal of therapy is to cut down on cravings for nicotine and ease the symptoms of nicotine withdrawal.

Rational Behavior Therapy

Rational behavior therapy in Michigan focuses on cognitive restructuring to change irrational or distorted thinking patterns. These can contribute to emotional and behavioral problems that lead to substance abuse and addiction. By fostering rational thinking and emotional stability, therapy improves decision making and aids sustained recovery.

house-medical iconTrauma Therapy

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.

I had the most wonderful experience at the Yale Veterans Clinic. I was a traveling worker for 9 years, haven't seen a doctor in 16 years, and was worried I'd be treated like just another number. Laura Brosius was such a wonderful provider and so extremely knowledgeable. Her team was equally as phenomenal. She took the time to really get to know me and my issues and helped me beyond my expectations. My deepest of appreciation ma'am. You are wonderful and I hope you are blessed for it. 20 outta 10 would recommend *air high five*

The staff in the back are excellent. The receptionists are very rude. Talked with Sandra and she was very rude over the phone after I didn't share with her the personal reason to be seen for a referral. She hung up on me as soon. As appointment was set. I was never rude, I talked with respect. Looking on how to report this behavior to the detroit va.Edit: I was able to report incident to the VA. If this continues with others I suggest to do the same.

I stumbled across these negative reviews, I am disappointed in people who think they should be thanked for their service, if you are a real soldier, it wouldn't even cross your mind, and as for health care at the Yale VA they are all great professionals.For the guy that said he had prostate cancer, and they didn't thank you for your service get a box of tissues. I too had prostate cancer that they caught and help treat and guess what I didn't expect a thank you for your service.Like other true soldiers we do it because we want to do it not for the acknowledgment of serving.Airborne

Very happy with the treatment that I receive here. Thorough and compassionate care from Tara Deters and the rest of the staff. Appointment wait is minimal. I am thankful for this clinic. It means that I don t have to battle I-94 to the Dingle facility for some things.

Receptionist at front window asks: Name; Last 4 of SSN; Address; Phone; Emergency Contact. Since the receptionist is right smack dab in the middle of the health center waiting room everyone hears. Nothing like supplying the whole waiting room with Personally Identifiable Information!
