Questions people ask about Action Counseling

Is Action Counseling residential or day treatment?

They provide outpatient. Whichever one you start at the usual pattern is to step down through the levels rather than stop at once, and Bremerton is the closest place to carry that on if you move.

Does Action Counseling offer a detox?

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Port Orchard, under a mile away.

Does Action Counseling offer medication for addiction?

No medication assisted treatment here. Some programs are abstinence based by design, which is a real difference rather than an oversight, and Port Orchard has 8 other centers to compare.

Is there a program at Action Counseling for people like me?

One of their programs is built for veterans, which usually means a separate group rather than the same room with a different label, and it is one of the 10 named here.

Is Action Counseling an option for someone over 65?

Older adults, plus adults from 26 to 64 and young adults from 18 to 25. Ask how the groups are arranged in Port Orchard, because a wide age range often still means one room.

Can depression be treated at the same time?

Depression, anxiety, trauma and attention disorders turn up constantly alongside substance use. Not every center has a prescriber for psychiatric medication, and that is a concrete difference to ask about. Ask what happens if the psychiatric side turns out to need more than the program planned for.

Will my treatment be kept private?

The records are protected, and the protection is specific to addiction treatment rather than general. The protection reaches further than general medical privacy does, which is why a center will not take a message for you either. Ask what a program would say if somebody rang it asking about you.

Can I work during treatment?

Outpatient programs are built around working hours precisely because most people cannot stop working. Schools and colleges have their own leave of absence process, and a medical withdrawal is often reversible. Find out whether the center deals with human resources departments directly.
