Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

car-building 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.

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.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

Couples Therapy

Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.

Experiential Therapy

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

Family 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.

Group Therapy

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.

Individual Therapy

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.

Trauma 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 feel like everyone here is rude and doesn't care about your health, and that makes me feel like I'm wasting someone's time and I don't like feeling that way.

After serving as an infantryman in the military, including being wounded during one of my deployments in Afghanistan, I sought therapy at Pawnee Mental Health Services. They provided me with the support and care I needed to transition back to civilian life and helped me become a better man. The therapists at Pawnee truly understand the unique challenges faced by veterans, and their expertise and compassion made a profound difference in my life. I'm so satisfied with the care I received that I've entrusted Pawnee Mental Health Services with my child's mental health as well. I have complete confidence in their ability to provide the same level of support and guidance to my child as they did for me. I highly recommend Pawnee Mental Health Services to anyone seeking quality mental health care.

My friend goes here she is a minor and she s not aloud to be in the room alone with the therapist. Her therapist told her that she couldn t be in there without her mother which just got her into a worse situation due to her mother being the abuser she needed to talk to the therapist about.

ZERO follow through. I've been lied to which is horrible. Two months and still waiting to have a prescription to be filled for a condition that was diagnosed years ago by another facility. They have my records, there is no excuse. But super willing to take my money....

They are constantly screwing up my prescriptions. The provider nurse takes 2-3 business weeks to call you back. I was supposed to have a 3 month refill and after the first I switched pharmacys so they had to have the provider send over another script. It took them 5 days to respond to the pharmacy then denied it ... Sooo now we wait to hear back from the nurse again. This place is worse on your mental health and will just create more stress in your life.

I ve NEVER had an issue with Pawnee. I don t know what people expect, a red carpet to be rolled out everywhere they go? I dealt with debilitating depression and anxiety and since I ve started visiting for therapy and medication management three years ago, I ve been doing amazingly. We ve had to adjust me meds a few times until we doing what worked best for me. And my therapist has never been too busy when I ve needed a call or last minute session. They always have appts available and will call you if there s a cancellation if you can t get it as soon as you had hoped. They ve never changed my appointments and I ve never had to wait an obscene amount of time to be seen. The receptionists are kind and helpful and the mental health staff are AMAZING. But you re always going to get the angry people reviewing rather than the satisfied patients, because they have to cause a stink about everything I guess!

So far so good. Super stoked they have the P.C.I.T my child needs and that they are willing to work with our schedule.

Third time trying to use Pawnee for help, third time I was told it would be different/new staff etc., third time I was wrong. They will cancel/push your dates 50% of the time; if you miss a defined deadline by one day, you will be without meds for a week.This is their way of working with you while short staffed, so try to go somewhere else if immediate assistance is important to you, but this was the best I could find in the area.Good luck.

They were not very helpful at all. My wife tried to call after our incident with our daughter and they were very rude to my wife on the phone. So I called and they were not very eager to help either. They lack so much professionalism and compassion for the line of work they are in. Katies way was a thousand times more eager to help us.

Screw up my kids medicine over and over. Screw up appointment times and more. If there was another provider of care for behavioral health anywhere closer than Topeka, Wichita or Kansas City, we would switch.
