San Jose VA Clinic Claimed

Clients can access outpatient and inpatient services. Their residential facility offers round-the-clock support, as well as therapy and addiction education for veterans who may be struggling with substance abuse, homelessness, mental health, or unemployment. If you take an outside excursion, there are many local parks and attractions, and transportation to and from the facility may be available.

The therapy styles offered here include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). This helps individuals balance and reframe the way they think about themselves, other people in their lives, and the future, while setting regular goals addressing this.

Motivational interviewing (MI) is offered and involves examining clients’ reasons for changing their behaviors, and the benefits of making it through the other side of recovery. Motivational enhancement therapy (MET) is a more specialized type of MI that hones in specifically on changing behaviors around alcohol and addictive substances.

Contingency management (CM) is a therapy style that prioritizes incentives for completing recovery through behaviors like abstinence. These incentives gradually get bigger relative to the consistency of clients’ positive behaviors.

Medication assisted treatment (MAT) is also available to support clients in managing their withdrawal symptoms and cravings. Some of the FDA-approved medications used for MAT at this location include methadone, buprenorphine, Suboxone, and naltrexone.
