Questions people ask about Southwest Counseling Service
Is Southwest Counseling Service inpatient or outpatient?
They provide outpatient, inpatient residential, telemedicine and detox, which is the whole of what this address in Rock Springs is set up for.
What does Southwest Counseling Service detox from?
They detox from alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine, methamphetamines and opioids. Which substances a place handles matters more than the word detox, and none of the 2 centers near Rock Springs offer one at all.
Are there free support meetings in Rock Springs?
Alongside this, Rock Springs has 4 NA meetings and 18 free AA meetings.
Does Southwest Counseling Service treat older adults?
They treat adults up to and past 65. Ask whether the group sessions are mixed age, because in Rock Springs that often means one room rather than two.
Can Southwest Counseling Service handle a court referral?
Yes. Court ordered treatment is one of the things they take, and one of 12 things they offer a named program for.
What will I be asked on the phone?
You will be asked about the drug, the dose, your medical history and your coverage. Nobody needs a diagnosis to make this call, and most people making it do not have one. Write down what you are using and how much before you dial, because it is harder to recall out loud.
How private is this?
The legal protection on addiction treatment records is stronger than the one covering the rest of your medical file. A mandated program reports attendance to whoever ordered it, and that is set by the order rather than by the center. Ask how long the record is kept and what would have to happen for anyone to see it later.
Does a return to use mean treatment did not work?
Treatment is not usually a single event, and the first attempt teaching you something is part of how it works. A return to use that followed a move, a job loss or a death is a different problem from one with no obvious trigger. Going back sooner rather than later is the part that matters most.
