The Counseling Center at Millbury

The Counseling Center at Millbury provides outpatient behavioral health care for people facing mental health conditions and substance use. The clinic offers several levels of structure, ranging from a partial care day program to intensive outpatient services and standard counseling. Every person's plan is built around their situation and their own diagnosis.

Staff help clients look at what may be driving their substance use, including mental health conditions that occur alongside addiction. Therapy draws on cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior therapy, with practical work on stress management and life skills. Medication management and medication-assisted treatment are also part of what the clinic can provide.

There are dedicated services at the center for veterans and those close to them, and it partners with nearby VA institutions for detoxification, residential care, and outpatient treatment. Among the services listed are case management, support from internal medicine, and rides to and from the facility.
