Outpatient Substance Abuse Treatment- New Beginnings Community Counseling
New Beginnings Community Counseling Center has been providing comprehensive outpatient mental health services and quality care to the child, adolescent and adult population of the South Bronx since 1996. The program, staffed by psychiatrists, psychologists and social workers, operates under New York State and New York City Department of Mental Health laws and regulations.
Patients are assigned to a therapist for therapy and if needed to a psychiatrist for medication management. Patients are seen by appointment; however, in a time of crisis patients will be seen without an appointment. Emphasis in treatment is on individual and group psychotherapy, symptom management and pharmacotherapy. Case management is also an integral part of the program.
Patients are usually seen on a weekly basis. The staff adopts eclectic multicultural and sensitive approaches in an attempt to treat the patient in a manner that alleviates symptoms and improves functioning. Marital therapy, family therapy and play therapy are also offered.
New Beginnings Community Counseling Center provides a variety of specialty groups for individuals who are seeking help with depression, anger management, medication management, parenting skills and other issues. Groups are offered in both English and Spanish.
New Beginnings Community Counseling Center collaborates with other Narco Freedom, Inc. programs to assist patients with any other issues they may have, such as medical care, substance abuse, HIV case management and others.
