Preferred Behavioral Health Group

They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Lakewood is set up for.

They do not, and neither does anywhere else listed around Lakewood. Withdrawal management and treatment are often two separate admissions, and this is one of those times.

Alongside this, Lakewood has 50 NA meetings and 5 free AA meetings.

They offer a pregnancy program. Call rather than wait, because this is the one case where timing changes the options and Lakewood may not have a second place set up for it.

They prescribe buprenorphine and naltrexone. Medication and counseling together is the standard of care for opioid use rather than an either or, and not every place near Lakewood offers both.

They treat teenagers as well as adults, which is the less common arrangement and worth confirming for Lakewood specifically.

Dual diagnosis means both are present, and treating them together is the current standard of care. Trauma focused therapy is offered by some programs and not others, and it is a specific skill rather than a general one. Ask what happens to your current psychiatric medication during the program.

The records are protected, and the protection is specific to addiction treatment rather than general. There are narrow exceptions, including a medical emergency and a court order, and they are narrower than people assume. Ask who the center is allowed to speak to, and make sure the answer matches what you want.
