Our treatment is effective for individuals with various problems including substance abuse/addiction, mental health issues or both (i.e. co-occurring disorders). It also works well for relationship and communication issues.

Our services include individual counseling and a variety of treatment groups as well as CD assessments, drug and alcohol information school, and court monitoring.

Rational Treatment Services (RTS) uses a cognitive behavioral approach.  Individuals work at their own pace to understand and change their thinking patterns, beliefs, and emotions.  Such restructuring facilitates behavioral and emotional change. People learn to take effective control of their behavior and begin leading more fulfilling lives.  Other techniques may also be utilized to enhance treatment including motivational counseling and techniques used in Rational Recovery.

We do not incorporate the 12-step program into our therapy.  However our treatment can compliment support group attendance whether it be AA, NA, Smart Recovery or other support groups.

At Rational Treatment Services, we strive to be non-judgmental and to create a supportive and safe atmosphere. Our treatment is also strictly confidential.
