First Step Services offers professional alcohol and drug treatment services to adults and adolescents in Raleigh, North Carolina. First Step Services provides a thorough approach to recovery with an emphasis on outpatient treatment for drug misuse. Individual and family therapy are offered as part of their programs, guaranteeing that patients get care that is specific to their needs.
Participants in First Step Services’ Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) must attend three sessions each week for a duration of 10 to 12 weeks. The program is structured to keep groups small—roughly six to eight people per counselor—in order to facilitate effective therapeutic involvement and individualized attention.
First Step Services puts the requirements of its clients first. The facility takes great satisfaction in providing prompt, discreet, and competent services. Because assessments are usually finished 24 to 48 hours after the first contact, treatment may be obtained quickly and effectively. In keeping with its dedication to helping people through a range of life situations, First Step Services also has close relationships with the local community, including EAPs, lawyers, and medical institutions.
At First Step Services, accessibility and affordability are also fundamental values. There are no registration or upfront costs, guaranteeing that clients may get the treatment they need regardless of their ability to pay. In order to reduce the cost burden of treatment, the center works directly with insurance companies to streamline authorizations and define benefits.
