Flexible Outpatient Programs
Denver Mental Health and Counseling offers outpatient and intensive outpatient (IOP) programs that allow clients to maintain work, school, and family commitments while receiving structured care. This flexibility makes treatment accessible for people balancing recovery with everyday responsibilities.
Evidence-Based and Integrated Therapies
The center provides therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and interpersonal therapy. Individual and group sessions are supported by psychiatric services for medication management when appropriate. Integrated treatment also addresses co-occurring substance use and mental health conditions together, helping clients stabilize symptoms and strengthen coping strategies.
Medications for Addiction Treatment (MAT)
For alcohol and opioid use disorders, medications may be prescribed to reduce cravings and ease withdrawal symptoms. Combined with therapy, MAT creates stability so clients can focus on recovery goals and long-term healing.
Accessible Location and Continued Support
Located in Highlands Ranch, the center is within easy reach of Denver, Boulder, Fort Collins, and Colorado Springs. Beyond structured treatment, clients can connect to alumni programs and community resources that provide accountability and support after formal care ends.
