Comprehensive Substance Use Assessments
The comprehensive assessment is done with a counselor to establish a better understanding of the individual’s past and current substance use. The assessment screens for mental and physical health needs as well. In addition, the Rule 25 substance use assessment is performed by a certified assessor, which helps to determine placement and level of care.
Treatment Planning
Each individual enrolled in the program will create a treatment plan with a counselor. The treatment plan will be customized, compiled of goals and objectives based on an individual client’s needs and wants.
Medication-Assisted Treatment Program

The medication options administered along with a tailored therapy plan at Lakeview Behavioral Health are Vivitrol and Suboxone, both of which are used to reduce withdrawal symptoms; decrease cravings; and prevent use of heroin, opioids, and alcohol. We have prescribing professionals on staff that understand addiction and can help with other medication-assisted recovery options.

Psychological Testing
Lakeview Behavioral Health uses tests in the form of questionnaires, surveys, and other assessment tools to measure and observe a client’s behavior to arrive at a diagnosis and to guide treatment.
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition triggered by a traumatic event—either experiencing it or witnessing it. Symptoms may include but are not limited to: flashbacks, nightmares, and severe anxiety, as well as uncontrollable thoughts about the event. We provide treatment in the form of teaching clients skills to address the symptoms, helping them think better about themselves, others, and the world; learning ways to cope if any symptoms arise again; and through cognitive and exposure therapy.
Attention Deficit Disorder
ADD/ADHD is categorized as a brain disorder presented by an ongoing pattern of inattention and/or hyperactivity-impulsivity that interferes with functioning or development. Treatment of this disorder can be in the form of individual cognitive and behavioral therapy to change negative thought patterns and enhance self-esteem, relaxation training and stress management to reduce anxiety and stress, and behavioral coaching to teach strategies for organizing tasks in an individual’s everyday life.
Anxiety Disorders
There are a variety of anxiety disorders, including: generalized anxiety disorder, specific phobia, social anxiety disorder, separation anxiety disorder, agoraphobia, and panic disorder. We provide medication-assisted therapy as well as non-medication-assisted therapy for anxiety disorders. Treatment is tailored to the type of disorder the client is dealing with.
Depression
Depression is a mood disorder that causes a persistent feeling of sadness and loss of interest. Treatment of depression can be done with medications such as antidepressants, though cognitive behavioral therapy or interpersonal therapy that can help clients adjust to a crisis or other current difficulty, and identify negative beliefs and behaviors and replace them with healthy, positive ones. Treatment can explore relationships and experiences to help develop positive interactions with others. Additionally, clients learn to find better ways to cope and solve problems, identify issues that contribute to their depression, and change behaviors that make it worse; regain a sense of satisfaction and control to help ease depression symptoms, such as hopelessness and anger; learn to set realistic goals for their lives; and develop the ability to tolerate and accept distress using healthier behaviors.
Mood Disorders
We provide tailored, responsive treatment for clients in a way that is most meaningful for their condition, support them in investigating the underlying issues and experiences that may contribute to mood disorders, and help them establish new coping mechanisms in response to stressors. Our goal is to help each individual move toward improved self-image, find relief from suffering, and discover a greater ability to live a healthy, happy life.
Memory Loss
Treatment for memory loss depends on the cause. We will determine the origin of the memory loss and work collaboratively to create a treatment plan best suited to an individual’s specific needs.
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
This is a condition in which people feel the need to check things repeatedly, perform certain routines repeatedly, or have certain thoughts repeatedly. Treatment involves counseling such as cognitive behavioral therapy, which assists a client in increasing exposure to what causes the problems while not allowing the repetitive behavior to occur.
Psychotic Disorders
These mental health conditions cause people to perceive or interpret things differently from those around them. This might involve hallucinations or delusions. Most psychotic disorders are treated with a combination of medications and psychotherapy.
Psychiatric Consultations
Lakeview Behavioral Health provides comprehensive evaluations to individuals of psychological, biological, medical, and social causes of emotional distress.
Medication Management
Medication management is the monitoring of medications that a client takes to ensure that he or she is complying with a medication regimen, while also ensuring the client is avoiding potentially dangerous drug interactions and other complications.
Telepsychiatry (Telemedicine)
Telepsychiatry describes the delivery of psychiatric assessment and care through telecommunications technology, usually videoconferencing.
Genetic Testing
Genetic testing opens the world of psychiatry to increased understanding about clients and the effectiveness of treatments. With genetic testing, providers can better understand the reasons, factors, and risks associated with individuals, including medication reactions, to better predict successful outcomes and basic concepts of genes and how they can influence our health and response toward particular treatments.
Heal with Yoga
Yoga is being used more frequently in substance use treatment programs because of the practice’s many benefits including stress relief and emotional healing. It can help reduce cravings and provide a healthy outlet to cope with life in recovery. In this class, begin with a breathing practice and movements through simple and easy asanas (yoga poses). End the practice with guided meditation and rest. This is beginner’s yoga with gentle pose challenges and targeted muscle movement (somatic yoga) over the course of the class.
