Focus

This center treats mental health conditions and co-occurring substance use. You receive collaborative, individualized treatment that addresses both issues for whole-person healing.

Covington Behavioral Health treats adolescents 10-17 and adults 18 and older who have mental health concerns. Although they are not a substance use treatment facility, they offer detox services for individuals struggling with substance use who would benefit from stabilization before treatment. They offer intensive inpatient and intensive outpatient programs for adolescents and adults along with a tailored military program for military veterans and first responders. They use a combination of medication management, evidence-based therapies, and creative therapies to provide effective treatment for various mental health disorders. Therapies include motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), music therapy, and art therapy. Providers use these therapies together to build useful skills, identify and replace negative thought processes, encourage self-expression, and empower individuals to make positive changes in their lives. In addition, providers deliver therapies through 1-on-1, family, and group sessions. Groups may include applied skills, psychoeducation, mindful movement, and executive functioning skills. Through learning important life skills, clients gain confidence, improve emotional regulation, and build practical strategies for daily living. Psychoeducation increases understanding of mental health, while mindful movement supports stress relief and self-awareness through gentle physical activity. Covington Behavioral Health works closely with each patient to plan their next steps after treatment, ensuring long-term success. Discharge planning begins at the start of programming and is continually adjusted to reflect each person’s progress and needs. Customized aftercare plans may include referrals to lower levels of care and resources aligned with personal goals, helping clients maintain and build on the progress they made.
