Dual Diagnosis Program
Greenbriar Treatment Center's dual diagnosis program is designed to treat chemically dependent individuals whose attempts at recovery are complicated by mental health issues. Our intimate, private treatment center offers a safe and accepting atmosphere for patients to learn new, healthy responses to life.
The patients have daily access to Masters level mental health therapists, and nurses experienced in psychiatric as well as substance and mental health treatment. Our Medical Director, John Six, M.D. , and our staff psychiatrist, Oscar Urrea, M.D. and Dr. Scott Gleditsch, M.D. lead the team in directing client treatment. Psychiatric consultations, individual and group therapies and psychological testing are utilized as indicated to provide the client with the most individualized care. Treatment planning focuses on the understanding and treatment of chemical dependency, concurrent with the client's mental health disorder. Medication management, coping with a dual disorder and the importance of continued support are all vital educational components in this program. Family educational sessions and 12 Step based meetings offer well rounded treatment for clients in this program. Dual diagnosis treatment is available in all levels of care as indicated by the pre-treatment assessment.
 

Partial Programming Clients in this level of care meet up to 7 days a week from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Treatment modalities imitate that of the residential program, and clients are expected to attend the weekly family session in the evening as well. Treatment planning includes attendance at AA/NA meetings during the evening hours. Clients in this program should expect random drug screening at the discretion of the therapist. Attendance and adherence to program guidelines, including recommended 12 Step based meetings is closely monitored. Day Partial Program (Half Day) Clients in this program will receive treatment three to four hours a day in either a morning or afternoon session as indicated by client availability. This program meets four to six days per week, with attendance one time per week at an evening family session. Treatment methods and other program guidelines are the same as a full day program. Evening Partial Program (All Sites) Clients in this program meet up to four nights per week from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. The program consists of psycho-educational sessions, individual and group therapy sessions and family educational sessions one evening per week. Random drug screening is conducted at the discretion of the therapist, and regular attendance is mandatory with the exception of excused absences.   Detoxification (Washington Site Only) The process of detoxification allows the client to safely withdraw from alcohol and/or drugs in a medically managed environment. The process is supervised by the Associate Medical Director and his staff of physicians. Registered nurses are available on site 24 hours a day to insure a comfortable and safe experience. During this medically monitored phase of treatment the patient is assigned a therapist who meets with him/her when appropriate. Often, brief counseling/supportive sessions are conducted to assist the patient in accomplishing detoxification and easing any questions or concerns that may arise from the experience. When able, the patient is invited to participate in group therapy activities and is guided through a series of audio-visual recovery tapes to assist the patient in gaining an understanding of addiciton.

Inpatient / Non Hospital
(Washington Site Only)
Residential treatment is the appropriate level of care for the client who needs a safe, structured environment in early recovery. The client resides at the facility and receives treatment throughout the day and evening hours. Treatment modalities include psycho-educational sessions, individual and group therapy and family educational programming. Special treatment groups such as, mens's & women's group, cocaine and relapse tracks, and recovery in the workplace, are among those available to meet the individual needs of the client population.

Attendance at AA/NA meetings is mandatory both in and outside the facility as clients begin the process of building sober support systems and obtaining temporary sponsorship. Assignments are individualized and are assigned by the primary therapist after a thorough psycho-social assessment is completed.

Individual Counseling
Completing the continuum of care, as well as a stand alone treatment option, individual counseling is offered at all sites to clients seeking help for problems with family issues, stress, depression and/or other concerns as they relate to personal or familial substance abuse. Sessions are conducted by appointment only with Masters level therapists. As with all programs, this service can be accessed through Greenbriar's central admissions department.
