Questions people ask about Directions Counseling Center
Which levels of care does Directions Counseling Center have?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Watertown is set up for.
Does Directions Counseling Center offer a detox?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Watertown offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
Can you stay overnight at Directions Counseling Center?
Outpatient only, and nothing within 14 miles of Watertown has beds either, so a residential stay would mean traveling further than that.
Are remote sessions an option at Directions Counseling Center?
They offer a telemedicine option. What that covers varies, and a first appointment in Watertown often still has to be in person.
Can a 16 year old be treated at Directions Counseling Center?
They take under 18s, alongside young adults from 18 to 25, adults from 26 to 64 and adults over 65, which in Watertown is worth confirming before you drive over.
Are there other options nearby?
Nothing else serves Watertown inside 14 miles, which is worth knowing before you rule this one out rather than against it.
How do I pick the right place?
Compare what each one actually provides rather than how each one describes itself. A center that asks you a lot of questions before recommending anything is behaving correctly. Check the accreditation yourself rather than taking the logo at face value.
What if this is not the first time?
Coming back after a return to use is one of the most ordinary things an intake line hears. What was learned the first time usually shapes a better plan the second. Ask about naloxone if opioids are involved, because tolerance will have dropped.
