Questions people ask about Petersburg Mountainside Behavioral
What kind of care does Petersburg Mountainside Behavioral provide?
They provide outpatient and telemedicine, which is the whole of what this address in Petersburg is set up for.
Is detox part of what Petersburg Mountainside Behavioral offers?
No, and nothing else within 14 miles of Petersburg offers one either, so that part will mean a longer drive or a referral.
Can any of this be done remotely?
They offer a telemedicine option. What that covers varies, and a first appointment in Petersburg often still has to be in person.
Are there other centers near Petersburg Mountainside Behavioral?
It is on its own in this part of AK, which makes the waiting list question worth asking early.
Does Petersburg Mountainside Behavioral treat teenagers?
They take under 18s, alongside young adults from 18 to 25, adults from 26 to 64 and adults over 65, which in Petersburg is worth confirming before you drive over.
Is there an interpreter at Petersburg Mountainside Behavioral?
They work in 1 language beyond English: Sign language. Ask whether the group sessions in Petersburg are in it too, or only the one to one ones.
Do they treat anxiety alongside addiction?
Both can be treated at once, and programs that do are described as integrated or co-occurring. Which came first is usually impossible to untangle and rarely changes what should happen next. Ask how often you would see a prescriber, not only whether one exists.
What if someone has been to treatment before?
A previous attempt is information rather than a mark against you. Programs will usually ask what happened last time, and the answer shapes what they offer. Ask what they do differently for somebody who has been through a program before.
