WestCare - Belmont Health & Wellness

WestCare Belmont Health and Wellness, located in Fresno, California, provides comprehensive treatment for adults and adolescents struggling with alcohol or substance addiction. Their array of programs includes outpatient treatment and aftercare support, with specialized services available for clients dealing with co-occurring conditions.

Outpatient programs at WestCare Belmont Health and Wellness offer varying levels of intensity, from minimal weekly sessions to more intensive treatment requiring an average of 10 hours a week. An initial assessment helps determine the appropriate level of care, which is adjusted as clients progress in their recovery. These programs are designed to provide flexibility while ensuring effective support for sustained recovery.

A significant focus is placed on dual diagnosis care, addressing both addiction and concurrent mental health challenges. Dual diagnosis treatment is essential for individuals experiencing addiction alongside mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression, or eating disorders. Treating these conditions concurrently increases the likelihood of a successful recovery, as it addresses the root causes and interconnected nature of these issues.

Group therapy is a cornerstone of the outpatient treatment process. These sessions facilitate a supportive group environment where clients can discuss and work through mental, emotional, and physical issues. Various group therapy models are employed, including support groups, experiential therapy, and educational workshops. The aim is to foster a sense of community and peer learning, enhancing the therapeutic experience and promoting healing.

Aftercare services at WestCare Belmont Health and Wellness include links to local community-based resources for continuous, long-term recovery support. This may encompass sober living residences, career counseling, medical providers, and similar programs to ensure a holistic approach to sustained recovery.

WestCare Belmont Health and Wellness accepts most forms of commercial insurance. Clients are encouraged to verify their coverage with their individual providers, as out-of-network benefits can vary.
