Questions people ask about New Directions Counseling
What treatment does New Directions Counseling offer?
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.
Is detox part of what New Directions Counseling offers?
No detox, here or anywhere listed within 14 miles of Shelton. Ask whether they will take somebody straight after a detox done elsewhere, because most will.
Can you stay overnight at New Directions Counseling?
They are outpatient. If someone needs to be away from where they are using, Shelton has the nearest beds, a few streets away.
Does New Directions Counseling offer appointments by video?
They do video appointments, which matters if Shelton is a drive for you.
What is there in Shelton that costs nothing?
Shelton has 45 free AA meetings as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.
How many options are within driving distance?
6 other centers are within about 14 miles, the nearest of them a few streets away in Shelton.
What does Suboxone do?
The short version is a prescribed medication that reduces cravings and withdrawal, taken under supervision. How long someone stays on a medication varies from months to years, and that decision belongs with a prescriber. Ask what happens if the first medication does not suit you.
What if there is no space?
A wait quoted on the phone is an estimate of a queue that moves, rather than a date you can plan around. Many programs offer an interim option while you wait, usually outpatient sessions or a daily check in. Ask what you should do in the meantime, because a good program will have an answer.
