Questions people ask about Four Directions Counseling and
Which levels of care does Four Directions Counseling and have?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and Dobson is the closest place to carry that on if you move.
Does Four Directions Counseling and offer a detox?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Mount Airy offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
Is there anything in Mount Airy besides paid treatment?
Mount Airy has 8 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.
What other centers are nearby?
There are 3 more within a short drive of Mount Airy, so this does not have to be the only call you make.
Is Four Directions Counseling and 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 Mount Airy is worth confirming before you drive over.
What if there is depression or anxiety as well?
Dual diagnosis means both are present, and treating them together is the current standard of care. A program that tells you to come back once the mental health side is handled has effectively declined to treat you. Ask what happens to your current psychiatric medication during the program.
Is outpatient enough?
The difference is where you sleep. Inpatient means you stay at the center, outpatient means you travel in for sessions. Withdrawal from alcohol or from benzodiazepines can be medically dangerous, which pushes the choice toward supervised care. Ask whether they offer the middle levels, because many only offer the two ends.
What happens to school?
It depends on the level of care. Outpatient care is designed to fit around a job. A documented medical leave is a stronger position than an unexplained absence, which is the comparison that matters. Keep a copy of everything you send and every date you were given.
