We are DHCS and JCOHA certified.
One of the most important services we offer here at Valley Recovery Center is crisis counseling. It’s a critical part of all our aftercare and extended care programs. Crisis counseling allows those in recovery who are struggling with addiction to turn to our qualified professionals in their time of need. We are there to provide guidance and assistance as they deal with the challenges that life and recovery often pose. Our crisis counseling is offered with the same commitment to providing care and support that we offer to residential patients, and it also takes their personal needs and history into account.
We provide crisis counseling not because we expect bad things to happen to our patients, but because we know that living a sober life is challenging. Furthermore, there are things out of our patients’ control that will also cause challenges. With this in mind, it’s vital that those in recovery have a place where they can turn to for support. We strive to provide just such an environment for everyone at Valley Recovery Center, and our care and support continues long after you’ve completed a treatment program here.
The crisis counseling we offer is often connected to the aftercare programs we provide. These programs include day patient treatment, evening outpatient treatment, sober living, and extended care. We offer these programs to meet the different needs of our patients, ensuring that they receive the care and support they need in a way that fits into their lives. These programs also enable us to build the connections that are valuable in the event a crisis does arise.
