About Middle Peninsula Northern Neck Essex Counseling Center

You can find Middle Peninsula Northern Neck Essex Counseling Center in Tappahannock, Virginia. They’re situated to your right as you drive toward the VCU Health Tappanhannock Hospital. 

They’re run by Middle Peninsula Northern Neck Behavioral Health (MPNN BH), a network of 40 providers who have been supporting people’s mental health since 1974.

 

Referrals for Medication Assisted Treatment

Their substance use disorder services run on an outpatient basis, with several opportunities for quality referrals if you need higher levels of support. If you’d like to start medication-assisted treatment, they happily facilitate referrals to nearby providers.

 

Specialized Counseling and Evidence Based Approaches

The staff at Essex Counseling Center use a combination of evidence-based addiction treatment methods to create a well-rounded approach to healing. Within the framework of the Matrix Model, they use elements of 12 step programs and motivational interviewing to introduce structure and enthusiasm into your journey. 

Over the years, they’ve tailored their programs to focus on unique needs faced by people in different age groups or life circumstances. For adolescents, the counseling sessions might focus on peer pressure or coping with unhappy family dynamics. For women, they might spend more time working through trauma.

 

Priority Care for Pregnant Women and Other High Risk Populations

Something I appreciate about their approach is their urgency when providing care for certain populations. They don’t waste time when getting you started with treatment, swiftly finding the right combination of services or referrals to help you. 

Their programs accommodate and strongly prioritize pregnant women and women with dependent kids. Typically, you’ll be scheduled within 48 hours after your initial contact. In many cases, they’ll connect you with a residential care facility that specializes in women’s treatment. 

They also prioritize people who use IV drugs or opiates and anyone who has just completed a detox or inpatient program.
