Focus

This center treats substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions. Your treatment plan addresses each condition at once with personalized, compassionate care for comprehensive healing.

The Morton Center focuses on restoring individuals and preserving families with education, support, and treatment using a trauma-informed approach. They treat substance use disorders and integrate treatment for co-occurring mental health disorders for adults and offer tailored mental health services for children and teens. The services they offer include intensive outpatient programs for adults and adolescents, 1-on-1 and group therapy, family counseling, and medication-assisted treatment. They offer both walk-in and telehealth appointments. The center offers therapy and support for kids ages 5 and up and children do not need a parent or caregiver in treatment to receive support from The Morton Center. The center offers age-appropriate services like art therapy, play therapy, and sand tray therapy to help children explore and express emotions in a safe and healing environment. The center offers caregiver consultations so adults can have tools to support children's emotional health at home. The Morton Center also offers specialized services for adolescents ages 12-18. They offer early intervention services to address issues of substance use before escalation, assessments to determine appropriate level of care and identify any co-occurring mental health needs, 1-on-1 and family therapy, and an intensive outpatient program (IOP). This program is offered Tuesday and Wednesday from 5:30 - 8:30 PM and consists of group therapy, psychoeducation, and peer support. The Morton Center's outpatient programs for adults include an IOP that allows adults to maintain work and family responsibilities while also prioritizing recovery. The IOP meets on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday evenings from 5:30 - 8:30 PM. The center also offers 1-on-1, couples, and family therapy. Their aftercare support includes recovery support groups led by therapists to help adults maintain progress and stay connected to a strong recovery community. Medication-assisted treatment, using medications like suboxone, vivitrol, and methadone, is available for adults with opioid use disorder.
