Questions people ask about Ann Ward Counseling
Is Ann Ward Counseling residential or day treatment?
They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Belfast has 2 other centers within 14 miles.
Can you detox at Ann Ward Counseling?
No. There is no detox listed near Belfast at all, so the first call is worth making to ask who they work with for it.
Is there anywhere else close by?
2 other centers are within about 14 miles, the nearest of them a few streets away in Belfast.
Does Ann Ward 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 Belfast has 2 other centers to compare.
Is Ann Ward Counseling an option for someone over 65?
Yes, they treat 65 and over, which is less common than it should be and rarer still outside a city the size of Belfast.
What stops it going wrong again afterward?
The month after a program is the one that needs a schedule, and aftercare is that schedule. Alumni programs exist at many centers and are usually free to people who went through them. The free meetings listed in Belfast are worth finding before you need them.
Will a court accept this program?
Being sent rather than choosing to go changes the paperwork more than it changes the treatment. Missing sessions has consequences beyond the clinical ones, which is a real difference in practice. Bring the order itself, or a copy, to the first appointment.
What happens to work or school while I am in treatment?
Usually there is a route through this that keeps the job, and which route depends on the level of care. Intensive outpatient programs are commonly scheduled before work or in the evening precisely so people can stay employed. Ask the program to write the letter in terms of a medical leave rather than a diagnosis.
