Heartland Family Service

Substance Use Treatment

Heartland Family Service’s outpatient Substance Use Treatment services utilize various treatment methods to give clients the skills and knowledge they need to overcome addiction. Our treatment model consists of active treatment and long-term aftercare support that includes family and individual therapy and gender-specific groups.

The dual-diagnosis approach provides on-site integrated mental health evaluation and treatment, psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and 24-hour emergency access.

The Substance Use Treatment services goals are to:

  • Establish abstinence
  • Initiate a long-term and stable recovery, including relapse prevention plan
  • Strengthen the family to support the client in stable recovery
  • Establish and/or maintain effective treatment for any co-occurring mental health condition which may impact the client’s recovery process
  • Establish healthy living environments
