About Passages Wellness & Counseling for Women
Passages Wellness & Counseling for Women is a mental health clinic located in Sayville, New York. They offer outpatient counseling for substance abuse and other mental health concerns. Their services are available for teenage girls, adult women, and adult couples.
At Passages, they offer substance abuse counseling to individuals and couples. In individual sessions, you’ll find the root feelings contributing to substance use, and work on building healthier coping mechanisms. In couples sessions, you’ll identify how substance use affects your relationship and work to repair any damage caused by addiction.
The psychotherapists at Passages are also well versed in other therapy modalities. Individual sessions can include cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, acceptance and commitment therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy. These methods help you process big emotions with intention and self compassion, and teach you how to respond to different scenarios in the most productive and healthy manner.
In couples therapy, treatment can include interpersonal psychotherapy, internal family systems therapy, emotionally focused therapy, and the Gottman method. These modalities all focus on smoothing the dynamics between you and your partner and facilitating healthy, open communication. They help you and your partner get to the core emotion of disagreements or decisions that are negatively impacting your relationship.
Addiction Treatments
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 choose drug rehab in New York, you'll participate in a variety of treatments that are designed to help you live a drug-free lifestyle. Common methods of treatment include group, individual, and family counseling, medication management, nutrition, exercise, and management of co-occurring mental health disorders.
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.

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.
