Consejo Counseling and Referral Servs

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

No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Shelton offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.

They take mandated treatment. What paperwork the court wants back is between you and whoever ordered it, and Shelton has 6 other centers if the dates do not work.

Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in Shelton.

Shelton has 15 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.

Most plans cover addiction treatment to some degree, because federal parity rules put it alongside other medical care. Two centers can quote very different amounts against the same plan, which is reason enough to check more than one. If a plan declines a level of care there is an appeal, and appeals are used more often than people expect.

It is a prescription that steadies the ground while the rest of the treatment happens. Not every center is licensed for every medication, so what is on offer varies more than the clinical picture does. Ask whether counseling is included or billed separately, because the combination is the point.

Often, and treatment frequently qualifies as medical leave rather than something you have to explain in detail. An employer is generally entitled to dates and a clinician's confirmation, not to a diagnosis. Read what your own policy says before you tell anybody anything.
