Questions people ask about Horizons Counseling Center
Is Horizons Counseling Center residential or day treatment?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine. The nearest alternative is in Franklin, 9.5 miles away, if you want something to compare it against.
Can you detox at Horizons Counseling Center?
They do not detox, and nothing inside 14 miles of Laconia does either. Ask them where they send people, because a place without one usually has somewhere it refers to.
Is there a residential program at Horizons Counseling Center?
Outpatient only. Nobody stays overnight, so the week is built around appointments you travel to in Laconia.
Does Horizons Counseling Center take court ordered treatment?
They take court referrals, which usually means they are used to the reporting side of it. Courts in Laconia send people to places set up for it rather than to any opening.
Are remote sessions an option at Horizons Counseling Center?
Some of what they do can happen remotely. Ask which parts, because it is rarely all of them and the 3 centers near Laconia differ on it.
Is there anything after I finish?
What comes next is the question to ask on the way in, not on the way out. Having something scheduled for the first week back is better than having good intentions for it. Ask what the alumni side of it involves, because it is often the most useful free thing on offer.
How long will I be away?
Expect days for withdrawal management, weeks for a residential program, and months for anything outpatient. The first two weeks are usually the most intensive part of whatever you choose. Ask what the program length is and what happens if more time is needed.
Who finds out that I went to treatment?
The rule covers the first phone call too, before you are a patient and whether or not you ever become one. Who you authorize, and what they are authorized to hear, are two separate choices on the same form. Ask for a copy of any release you sign, and read what it covers.
