Outpatient Support in a Calm Suburban Setting

Situated in a quiet office complex near Fort Washington’s waterfront, A Plus Counseling Center offers a non-institutional outpatient environment that serves adolescents and adults managing mental health and substance use challenges. Its location provides a sense of privacy and ease, with telehealth and transportation assistance supporting greater access to care.

Medications and Detox for Addiction Recovery

A Plus Counseling Center offers outpatient detox services for alcohol, opioids, benzodiazepines, and stimulants. Clients may access medications for addiction treatment (MAT), including buprenorphine and naltrexone, under the care of licensed professionals. These options are combined with evidence-based therapies such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, and the Matrix Model to support long-term recovery.

Trauma-Informed Programming for Co-Occurring Needs

The center’s trauma-informed approach supports clients with dual diagnoses, offering therapy for PTSD, depression, and anxiety alongside treatment for substance use. Programming includes family therapy, anger management, and counseling for individuals impacted by domestic violence or justice system involvement.

Services That Address Real-Life Barriers

Beyond therapy and clinical care, the center offers resources that help clients maintain stability during and after treatment. These include employment readiness services, recovery coaching, and peer-led groups. Transportation assistance and same- or next-day appointments reduce common barriers for those balancing care with other responsibilities.

Culturally Responsive and Inclusive Access

Services are available in English, Spanish, and Farsi, with programming designed to serve veterans, active duty military, and individuals involved in the criminal justice system. The center is experienced in supporting mothers, youth, and others navigating complex social or family dynamics during recovery.
