Northern Arizona VA Healthcare System - Mental Health Clinic (116)

They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Prescott has 8 other centers within 14 miles.

They do not offer one. Sorting detox out comes first, and Prescott is the nearest place that does it, about a mile away.

They have a program for veterans. Ask whether the group is veterans only, because for a lot of people that is the point of it and in Prescott it may be mixed.

They treat both, and the rest of what they are set up for is adult men, adult women, military families, pain management, past domestic violence, past sexual abuse, past trauma, service members and veterans.

They treat adults from 26 to 64 and young adults from 18 to 25. Ask whether the groups are split by age, because in Prescott that can mean one mixed room rather than several.

8 other centers are within about 14 miles, the nearest of them under a mile away in Prescott.

Some programs have a prescriber on site and some rely on yours, which is worth knowing in advance. Stopping a psychiatric medication abruptly can cause real harm, which is why this is never a decision to make alone. Bring the containers with the labels on, not a bag of loose pills.

Expect questions rather than a pitch, and expect them to be fairly direct. Honest answers get a better recommendation, and understating the amount is the most common way people get sent to the wrong level of care. Ask what the next step is and who is responsible for arranging it.
