Treatment
Treatment Philosophy
RiverWoods Behavioral Health is committed to providing a full continuum of treatment options to meet the needs of all patients, allowing them to be admitted to any level of care and make a seamless transition through our levels of care as they recover. In order to do this effectively, the caring and compassionate staff at RiverWoods spends a great deal of time getting to know each and every patient who walks through our doors.
We conduct comprehensive evaluations and get to know each of our patients on a personal basis. It's only then that our treatment teams will be able to determine what treatment options will work well for each individual's situation and difficulties.
RiverWoods only uses empirically-validated treatments that are backed by scientific support to ensure that they are effective. Our goal is always to return each person who comes to us to their highest level of functioning so that you can return to your community and enjoy life. We're also highly committed to giving back to our community to help others outside our treatment system through education, donations, participation in community charity events, interaction and education in the school systems, work with low-income families and board involvement with other organizations. This allows us to gain the most up-to-date information about conditions affecting the community we are a part of. Our main commitment is to do right by each and every patient who comes to us for help.
Treatments Offered
Our multidisciplinary treatment team comprised of medical physicians, nurses, psychiatrists, psychologists, therapists, and support staff create individualized plans of care for each patient we treat. Empirical evidence supports the idea that an inpatient program that offers a variety of therapeutic techniques and medications is the best way to kick start recovery from mental disorders and chemical dependency. Our chemical dependency program is based upon the 12-step recovery model for addiction and chemical dependency treatment. We offer safe and effective detox from chemical dependency, medication management, individual therapy with a focus on strengths-based and cognitive-behavioral therapy, group therapy, and family counseling sessions. Treatment approaches will be based upon the unique needs of each person who comes to us for help.
