Questions people ask about Alternatives in Psychological

Is Alternatives in Psychological residential or day treatment?

They are set up for 2 levels: outpatient and telemedicine. Of the 8 centers within 14 miles of Milwaukee, 3 offer a bed.

Does Alternatives in Psychological offer a detox?

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Milwaukee, about a mile away.

Does Alternatives in Psychological prescribe medication for opioid use?

They do not prescribe. If buprenorphine or methadone is part of what you need, say so on the call and ask who they refer to in Milwaukee.

Can you stay overnight at Alternatives in Psychological?

Nobody stays overnight. Outpatient means you keep sleeping at home and come in for sessions, and the closest residential option is about a mile away in Milwaukee.

Are there other centers close to Alternatives in Psychological?

There are 8 more within a short drive of Milwaukee, so this does not have to be the only call you make.

Is telehealth available at Alternatives in Psychological?

Some of what they do can happen remotely. Ask which parts, because it is rarely all of them and the 8 centers near Milwaukee differ on it.

What do I pack for a stay?

Bring the paperwork, the medications and enough clothing for a week. Most places do laundry. Medications normally have to arrive in the original labeled container, so a pill organizer can be refused at the door. Ask whether there is a laundry, because the answer halves what you need to bring.

Can I work during treatment?

Many people are treated without leaving work at all, because outpatient programs are available evenings and early mornings. Intensive outpatient programs are commonly scheduled before work or in the evening precisely so people can stay employed. Ask the program to write the letter in terms of a medical leave rather than a diagnosis.
