About The Centers – Martin Luther King

The Centers provides a range of services that promote health and healing for children and adults. They have multiple locations in Florida including one on Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue in Ocala. This clinic is located on the Beacon Point Campus along with several other healthcare providers.

They offer accurate care, substance abuse recovery treatment, mental health counseling and support, and services for children. They can help treat common mental disorders including depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, PTSD, and ADHD.

Outpatient Drug Treatment in Ocala

The Centers provides personalized treatment plans for clients living with substance use disorders. They specialize in supporting adults and children who have underlying issues like trauma, abuse and familial problems.

Treatment starts after a comprehensive intake. You can get access to group and individual intervention and three sessions in a triage group.

The triage group is a space where clients learn valuable skills to help them get used to therapy. In this group, clients get educated on substance abuse and dependence. It also teaches participants reframing and restructuring skills.

Under their mental health counseling umbrella, they offer therapists who specialize in co-occurring substance abuse disorders and trauma. You’ll get regularly scheduled appointments. I like that in times of increased stress or crisis, arrangements for non-scheduled visits are possible.

They also run groups that are tailored to specific needs like domestic violence and depression.

Medication-Assisted Treatment

The Centers also provides MAT which is an effective, FDA-approved program to address drug or alcohol addiction. Here, you can get started with medications that calm cravings and rewire your brain to function without substances.

Other Forms of Payment

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient
Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs.
outpatient iconOutpatient
The Centers specializes in substance abuse treatment for adults and children, addressing underlying issues including familial, trauma, abuse, etc. Outpatient group and individual therapeutic intervention is provided, after a comprehensive intake, treatment plan development, and three sessions in a Triage group. In the Triage group clients are provided with psychoeducation on substance abuse and dependence, reframing and restructuring skills, and information to acclimate them to the therapeutic process. All treatment plans are individualized to provide the best possible outcomes for recovery.

Treatments

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

Drug rehab in Florida provides quality treatment to help individuals overcome dependency related to a wide range of addictive substances. Programs address both the physical and mental aspects of addiction in order to help you make a full recovery.

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Programs

adult-program thumbnail image
Adult Program
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.

Young Adult Program
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.

Clinical Services

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.
