Accessible Outpatient Treatment in Spartanburg

Forrester Center for Behavioral Health offers outpatient services in a convenient Spartanburg location, designed for individuals balancing work, school, and family responsibilities. The smoke- and vape-free campus provides walk-in assessments and flexible scheduling options, including morning, evening, and weekend groups. As a private nonprofit, the center accepts Medicaid and most insurance, with individualized payment plans and assistance programs that ensure cost does not prevent access to care.

Medications for Addiction Treatment (MAT) and Whole-Person Care

The center provides medications for addiction treatment (MAT) for opioid and alcohol use disorders, supported by ongoing therapy. Clients work with a case manager and medical team to create tailored care plans, including medication management and behavioral therapy. Integrated mental health services and primary care coordination address co-occurring conditions and promote long-term stability in recovery.

Programs for Adults and Adolescents

Adult programs focus on outpatient counseling, trauma-informed therapy, and co-occurring disorder treatment. The center’s Greer outreach site extends access to these same core services. For youth, The Bridge Program supports adolescents aged 12 to 17 through family-centered therapy, case management, and prevention programs focused on healthy decision-making. The Adolescent Outpatient Program helps teens reduce substance use, strengthen family relationships, and find positive alternatives to peer pressure.

Peer and Community-Based Support

Recovery is reinforced through peer mentoring and specialized education programs. Peer Support Specialists draw on lived experience to guide individuals through early recovery and connect them with community resources. Additional programs include the Alcohol and Drug Safety Action Program (ADSAP) for DUI, Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) for minors, and a Batterer’s Treatment Program offering gender-specific domestic violence classes. Pregnant people and those who inject drugs receive priority access, reflecting the center’s commitment to timely, equitable care.
