Carey Counseling Center Inc

They provide outpatient and telemedicine. The nearest alternative is in Humboldt, 13 miles away, if you want something to compare it against.

No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Trenton offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.

They work in 1 language beyond English: Sign language. Ask whether the group sessions in Trenton are in it too, or only the one to one ones.

No medication assisted treatment here. Some programs are abstinence based by design, which is a real difference rather than an oversight, and Trenton has 1 other center to compare.

Yes. They treat ages 12 to 17, which only a minority of centers do. Trenton has 1 other center, and an age range is the first thing to confirm on the call.

Compare the specifics, because almost every center describes itself in the same words. A center that asks you a lot of questions before recommending anything is behaving correctly. Ask whether the person on the phone works for the center or for a referral service.

Someone will want to know how recently you used, because that decides whether detox comes first. Having your insurance card in front of you shortens the whole thing considerably. Ask what happens between the call and the first day, and who is responsible for each part.

The gap between a return to use and picking the phone up again is the part worth shortening. A different level of care is often the right response rather than a repeat of the same program. Ask whether the program takes somebody back directly or wants a fresh assessment first.
