By Grace Counseling Services provides outpatient care in Brooklyn, Maryland, helping people with substance use disorders while they continue living at home. The program relies on counseling, group sessions, and medication when a prescriber orders it, with the intensity set by the level of care each person needs. Many referrals come from probation departments, behavioral health agencies, and family services, so staff are accustomed to coordinating with outside systems.

Treatment plans are built around individual needs and may combine therapy, medical care, and education about substance use. Co-occurring disorders, trauma, and other health concerns are addressed alongside the substance use itself. The center includes specialized services for pregnant women, LGBTQ+ individuals, older adults, veterans, and people involved in the justice system. By Grace Counseling Services also works with people living with HIV/AIDS and those experiencing trauma.

This location offers outpatient detox, outpatient care and treatment for co-occurring disorders, with medication-assisted treatment for opioid use when a prescription calls for it. Outpatient detox and medication-assisted treatment for opioids are offered at this Maryland rehab, with clinicians providing oversight. Quitting alcohol or benzodiazepines can become dangerous, so a medical team should monitor the process rather than a person attempting it alone. Listed therapies are twelve step facilitation, trauma-specific therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, individual counseling, online therapy, group therapy, life skills and relapse prevention counseling.

Once the first phase ends, the center provides an intensive outpatient program, continuing care, outpatient treatment, recovery coach support, and support meetings, and its activities include AA and NA meetings. Maryland addiction treatment centers like this one build care around the needs of each person, so the weekly schedule changes as someone stabilizes. Should a higher level of care, such as residential treatment, prove necessary, the helpline can help you review other SAMHSA-listed choices in Maryland.

Setting, daily schedule, and languages

Stays are usually listed at 30 days, but since the format is outpatient, most people attend scheduled sessions rather than staying onsite. The center is in Brooklyn, Maryland, offers services in English, and includes online therapy among its options. For someone facing pregnancy, justice system involvement, or a co-occurring condition, or moving following a more intensive level of care, a stay may look different, so ask how the timeline changes. If travel or a work schedule makes weekly visits hard, ask the helpline whether online sessions or a program closer by would fit better.

Costs and coverage at this center

The center accepts Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance and state-funded plans, and it lists cash pay rates for people paying directly. What you owe and what is covered depends on your own plan and the level of care recommended, so a few minutes on the phone to verify benefits before admission is time well spent. The helpline can help you assemble questions for the center's billing staff if you are uncertain what your plan covers. The helpline is independent of this center and does not diagnose; it connects callers with licensed providers.

Questions worth asking before admission

• How many days each week does it meet, and what level of care does the intake assessment indicate?
• Is withdrawal management handled onsite, and who provides medical oversight during it?
• Does my Medicaid or private plan cover outpatient detox and medication-assisted treatment here?
• What does a typical week look like between counseling, groups, and AA or NA meetings?
• How does the center coordinate with probation, family services, or a behavioral health agency already involved?
