Questions people ask about Center for Prevention and Counseling

Which levels of care does Center for Prevention and Counseling have?

They provide outpatient and telemedicine. The nearest alternative is in Lafayette, 4.4 miles away, if you want something to compare it against.

Is detox part of what Center for Prevention and Counseling offers?

They do not offer one. Sorting detox out comes first, and Lafayette is the nearest place that does it, 4.4 miles away.

Can a 16 year old be treated at Center for Prevention and Counseling?

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

Is there a program at Center for Prevention and Counseling for people like me?

One of their programs is built for people dealing with past trauma, which usually means a separate group rather than the same room with a different label, and it is one of the 5 named here.

Are there free support meetings in Newton?

Newton has 4 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.

Can I do a shorter program?

Programs are sold in blocks and recovery does not work in them, which is the tension inside this question. The early part of any program is mostly stabilizing, and the work people picture when they think of treatment starts after that. Ask what happens on the last day, and what gets arranged before it.

Does a relapse mean it failed?

The gap between a return to use and picking the phone up again is the part worth shortening. The useful question after a recurrence is what was missing, and the answer is often medication or aftercare. Say what happened last time and what was missing from the plan.

Can I start this week?

Sometimes, and it depends far more on the level of care than on the center. Calling several places on the same day is the normal approach rather than an impatient one. Ask whether the wait changes if you are willing to start at a different level of care.
