On the services side, the facility self-reports 10 distinct service lines (Co-occurring disorder treatment, Cognitive behavioral therapy, Dialectical behavior therapy, Mental health treatment, Outpatient, Partial hospitalization / day treatment, Residential, Substance use treatment, Suicide prevention services, Telehealth), 1 substance or condition category treated (General substance use disorders), and 9 clinical treatment approaches (Abnormal involuntary movement scale, Activity therapy, Cognitive behavioral therapy, Couples/family therapy, Dialectical behavior therapy, Group therapy, Individual psychotherapy, Integrated Mental and Substance Use Disorder treatment, Telemedicine/telehealth therapy).
