Mental Health and Substance Abuse

Positive Growth Inc.’s mental health and substance abuse programming is an intervention and prevention program specializing in helping children, adolescents, adults, and families find the path that leads to a successful and positive life. The program provides a supervised structured environment combining skilled building, counseling, positive reinforcement, goal planning, job skills, education enrichment, substance awareness and cultural activities. Our program is designed to treat each participant as an individual, and offer support through a home-like environment and community-based setting. Through our activities and therapeutic interactions, each participant is able to identify their issues and find the strength to make changes.

Program components include substance abuse treatment, educational support, parent education and family counseling, individual and group counseling, social support, independent living preparation, social and life skills building, and intensive follow-up and aftercare. The overall aim of Positive Growth is to help consumers become effective managers of their lives, prevent the escalation and continuation of delinquent behavior, and lessen the use of social services.

Services are facilitated through our Counseling Center where we seek to support, empower and enable individuals, families, and communities to be strengthened through professional community-based services that will enhance the health, safety, and needs of the community. Our services are evidenced based and provided in the least restricted areas: at homes, schools, neighborhood sites, or our office located in Clarkston. The mental health and substance abuse programming services are offered daily and during the day, evening and weekends.
