About Laurelwood | Inpatient Behavioral Health Facility
Laurelwood Inpatient Behavioral Health Facility is a nonprofit facility based in Gainesville, Georgia. They specialize in stabilization services for mental health and substance abuse. Support is available to teens and adults, including those with dual diagnosis or co-occurring mental health issues. Most major insurance plans are accepted here, though clients should call to check about specific plans.
This center is recognized locally as a leader in its field. They provide a range of services, all of which start with a free and totally confidential assessment. This allows the team to establish clients’ needs and evaluate the severity of their addiction and/or mental health issues. They can also get a better idea of clients’ symptoms and a broader view of their relationships, career and general temperament. All of this will help them figure out next steps and the most appropriate level of care for the client.
As an initial step, some clients may need to get sober, in which case detox is the best place to start. Following this, they may be directed to inpatient treatment, partial day treatment or an intensive outpatient program (IOP). Whichever they move on to, the facility’s behavioral health specialists will help clients set achievable goals for their recovery and provide a personalized plan to help them achieve them. Amongst other things, a plan like this might involve weekly or bi-weekly therapy sessions or regular psychiatric sessions.
In terms of therapy styles and treatment techniques, many of the providers here use cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Some of the staff are even trained in more specialized treatments like eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) or Gestalt Therapy. Family and couples counseling are also available.
