New Horizons CounselingThe Basics

New Horizons Counseling Services provides substance abuse and mental health services for men and women ages 18 and above. Located in Miami, New Horizons Counseling Services has been helping addicts and alcoholics in southern Florida since 1992.  With outpatient treatment using evidence based methods, New Horizons clients participate in traditional therapy methods in intimate group settings.

Treatment and Staff

Potential clients must first schedule an assessment facilitated by a licensed therapist. Once evaluated, clients are placed in either the Intensive Outpatient (IOP) or basic outpatient program.

IOP clients meet three days per week for group therapy and once a week for individual therapy, totaling 10 hours per week with the option of morning or evening sessions. Groups utilize CBT and discuss topics including facts of drug and alcohol use, re-framing thoughts, emotional stability, stress management, family dynamics and relapse prevention. Groups vary in size, but are limited to 12 participants.

Duration of the IOP is six months to one year, depending on individual progress. Clients are drug tested weekly and must attend at least three AA/NA meetings per week. In addition to groups and one-on-one sessions, clients with co-occurring disorders are seen by the staff psychiatrist monthly for medication management.

Traditional outpatient clients attend groups twice a week with individual therapy on an as-needed basis. Groups meet on Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 5 to 7 pm. Topics are similar to those in IOP and duration of outpatient is three months and longer if necessary. As with the IOP, clients are encouraged to attend outside 12-step meetings and many choose to attend together at a location within blocks of New Horizons.

The treatment team consists of psychologists and LMHCs with certifications in parenting, domestic violence and anger resolution. Services in Spanish are offered as well.

Extras

As an add-on service, New Horizons offers a Neuro-Endo-Immune (NEI) assessment, which can help clients discover which medications and supplements may best complement their substance abuse treatment.

In addition to substance abuse treatment, NHC offers anger management counseling, a divorce recovery program, help for co-parenting issues and conflict resolution counseling all utilizing DBT.

In Summary

New Horizons Counseling Services provides low cost outpatient counseling for adults with a strong emphasis on the 12-steps. Both the IOP and basic outpatient tracks provide long-term treatment with a customized step down process which may suit those who need additional time and support in creating a new sober lifestyle.
