About Lourdes Counseling Center

Based in Richland, Washington, Lourdes Behavioral Health—formerly Lourdes Counseling Center—specializes in mental and behavioral healthcare for clients of all ages, and their families. Founded in 1974, this organization has been supporting its local community for decades as a trusted health facility. They’re pretty close to the Columbia River.

In terms of payment, they accept Medicaid, Medicare, and various private insurance providers. Financial assistance is also available to those eligible.

The center’s outpatient programs are always preceded by thorough assessments and evaluations so the team can get to grips with the severity of clients’ condition, as well as their specific needs and preferences. From here, they can then recommend and refer them to relevant outpatient services like medication management, therapy, or case management.

Individuals can also access specific addiction treatment services, which involve similar treatment services, as well as relevant life skills training. Therapy is offered as either individual or group sessions, family counseling, or a mixture of both. Therapy here is primarily solution-focused, and highly educational.

For addiction treatment specifically, clients can access varying levels of care depending on where they’re at in their recovery journey. The center offers intensive outpatient (IOP), standard outpatient, and specialized support for dual-diagnosis individuals. DUI deferment assessments are also available for those who may have experienced legal or criminal trouble as a result of their substance use.

The center also offers community outreach outpatient services, and support for homeless individuals through its Project for Assistance in Transition from Homelessness, or PATH program. They have monthly forums to improve your health that are open to all.
