About Insight Human Services

Insight Human Services provides adults and adolescents with outpatient substance use treatment in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. The organization is CARF-accredited and state funded. What stood out to me is that they speak both English and Spanish. If you’re pregnant, are an intravenous drug user and/or are at risk of tuberculosis or HIV/AIDS, you’ll be given priority admissions.

A Little History

Insight Human Services was originally named Council on Drug Abuse when they first opened in 1970. A few years passed, and they rebranded under the new name STEP ONE in 1986. A fact I found to be insightful is that, at that time, they were the first agency in North Carolina to provide childcare for their clients to receive substance abuse treatment.

In 2015, they rebranded again under the name Insight Human Services. The purpose of this rebrand is that they wanted to focus on their unique and well branded approach to intervention, prevention and treatment.

Today, they’re located near Second Street Park and the Benton Convention Center. Take a look below for a description of their programs.

Treatment Provided For Adults and Adolescents

Both adults and adolescents will be able to receive substance abuse outpatient treatment. Their outpatient program was designed to cause the least amount of disruption to your daily life. You will still be able to attend school, work and other commitments you may have.

Everyone will begin with a clinical comprehensive assessment. You’ll go over your substance use history and other important information to create your treatment plan. You’ll attend therapy sessions, have psychiatric care and medication management.

Adults are able to receive medication assisted treatment (MAT), whether it be long term or maintenance. Their program will provide you with evidence based techniques such as motivational interviewing (MI), motivational enhancement therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and relapse prevention therapy.

Depending on your needs, you may participate in either their standard outpatient program (OP) or their intensive outpatient program (IOP). The difference between the programs is the number of days you will participate in treatment per week. OP requires up to five days per week, but IOP requires a minimum of 3-5 days each week.
