Q: Can I do an evaluation over the phone?

A: We do a very brief screening over the phone but not the full assessment. You can do a quick self test on our web site to see if you have substance abuse or depression symptoms. Remember, neither a phone screening or a self test replace a face-to-face evaluation.

Q: Can I work and stay in the treatment program at the same time?

A: In the inpatient setting, we want the patient to be focused completely on their therapy and we also want to ensure both their safety and the safety of their loved ones. In the partial/day programs and the intensive outpatient programs (IOP) it is entirely possible to work and participate in the programming. Every person is different and therefore this decision is always based on a case-by-case basis.
