Our Mission
"To nurture a culture of recovery and provide new opportunities for wellness for addictions, mental health, and forensic populations through the provisions of exceptional services, advocacy, and support."
Individual Therapy
Individual therapy is delivered by a licensed clinician for the treatment of a variety of mental health concerns including substance use, anxiety, depression, and trauma. All individual therapy includes the provision of trauma-informed care. EMDR therapy is available for the treatment of PTSD and other trauma related symptoms.
Empowered Moms Group
This group is designed for mothers with minor children who are seeking recovery from substance use and/or other mental health disorders. Empowered combines skill building and therapy to address the unique needs of this population. Skill building includes early recovery, coping, parenting, and basic life skill development.
12-step Facilitation Group
This therapy group is grounded in the concept of addiction as a spiritual and medical disease. The content of this intervention is consistent with the steps in 12-step fellowships such as Alcoholics Anonymous. This highly structured group also employs Motivational Enhancement Therapy (MET) techniques and symptom inquiry.
Moral Reconation Therapy (MRT)
Moral Reconation Therapy (MRT) is a cognitive-behavioral treatment system that leads to enhanced moral reasoning, better decision making, and more socially appropriate behaviors. Specifically developed for forensic populations, MRT leads to increased compliance and decreased disciplinary infractions and recidivism.
Modified Matrix
The Matrix Model is an evidenced-based treatment program for treating all substance use disorders. This multi-formatted treatment modality uses an integrated therapeutic model including cognitive-behavioral and motivational enhancement. Our modified Matrix focuses on early recovery skills and relapse prevention.
Case Management
Case management services are provided to clients as needed. These services target locating community resources, making referrals, provision of general support, and monitoring of overall treatment plan. Case managers strive to help client overcome barriers to treatment and problem-solve issues as they arise.
Skill Building
Skill building is integrated into the curriculum of all groups at N.O.W. Counseling Services. Individual skill building sessions are available to clients when needed and focus on learning and practicing basic life, social, parenting, relationship, budgeting, employment, self-care, cognitive, problem-solving and other coping skills.
