Questions people ask about Child and Family Guidance Center

Which levels of care does Child and Family Guidance Center have?

They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Waterbury has 8 other centers within 14 miles.

Does Child and Family Guidance Center offer a detox?

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

Is Child and Family Guidance Center an option for someone under 18?

They take under 18s, alongside young adults from 18 to 25, adults from 26 to 64 and adults over 65, which in Waterbury is worth confirming before you drive over.

Is there a Spanish speaking counselor at Child and Family Guidance Center?

Yes, they treat people in Spanish. Whether that means a counselor who speaks it or an interpreter is worth asking, and Waterbury has 8 other centers to ask the same of.

Can you stay overnight at Child and Family Guidance Center?

Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in Waterbury.

Is there a program at Child and Family Guidance Center for people like me?

One of their programs is built for people dealing with past trauma, which usually means a separate group rather than the same room with a different label, and it is one of the 7 named here.

What questions should I ask a center?

Compare the specifics, because almost every center describes itself in the same words. Who delivers the therapy matters: licensed clinicians and counselors in training are not the same thing. If a place pressures you to commit on the call, that is information.

How long would I be in a program?

The block you are offered and the time the work takes are two different things, and that is the honest answer. The 28 day figure comes from what insurers once reimbursed rather than from anything about how recovery works. Ask how many hours a week an outpatient program actually takes, because it varies widely.
