Questions people ask about River Valley Counseling Center

Is River Valley Counseling Center inpatient or outpatient?

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 West Springfield is the closest place to carry that on if you move.

Does River Valley Counseling Center offer a detox?

No. The nearest place that does offer one is in Holyoke, 1.8 miles away.

Is there a program at River Valley Counseling Center for people like me?

They offer a program for clients with a mental health diagnosis as well, which not every center around Chicopee does.

Does River Valley Counseling Center treat people in Spanish?

Yes, they treat people in Spanish. Whether that means a counselor who speaks it or an interpreter is worth asking, and Chicopee has 8 other centers to ask the same of.

Is there anything in Chicopee besides paid treatment?

Chicopee has 18 free AA meetings as well, which is not treatment but costs nothing and needs no referral.

How do people afford rehab?

Nobody prices this from a listing. It turns on the level of care, the length, and what a plan is willing to approve. Nonprofit and faith based programs sometimes cost a fraction of commercial rates, with longer waits attached. Ask for the figure per week as well as per program, because extensions are billed by the week.

Can my family come?

Most programs build the family in, and how far they do it is a real difference between two centers. A household that changes nothing while one person is treated puts that person back into the same week they left. Ask about the release of information early, because without it the updates stop.

What is not allowed?

The documents matter: identification, insurance details, and anything a prescriber has written for you. If you are driving yourself, ask where the car will sit, because some programs keep the keys. Sort the keys, the mail and the animals before the day rather than on it.
