Treatment & Programs

Levels of Care

The journey to wellness at this facility spans multiple settings, adapting to where clients are in their recovery. Services range from standard office-based outpatient therapy to more hands-on environments like Supervised Group Living for those needing assistance moving toward independence.

Therapies

Treatment plans combine clinically informed therapy with evidence-based interventions like Medication-Assisted Treatment. Group therapy sessions are a frequent offering, tackling everything from mood management to grief and loss in a supportive, supervised setting.

Addictions

Addressing substance use disorder is a core pillar of the holistic care provided here. The clinical team utilizes a customized blend of therapy, medication-assisted treatment, and case management to help clients across central Indiana navigate the complexities of addiction.

Valley Oaks - Otterbein provides comprehensive mental health care for a wide spectrum of behavioral diagnoses. Clinicians build personalized treatment plans to support individuals managing ADHD, depression, anxiety, trauma, and specific life challenges like psychosis or sexually maladaptive behaviors.
