💙 January is Substance Use Disorder Treatment Month 💙

Substance use disorders (SUDs) can affect anyone regardless of age, gender, background, or income. Like diabetes, asthma, or arthritis, SUDs are chronic medical conditions that deserve compassionate, evidence-based care.

At Kaniksu Community Health, we treat substance use disorders the same way we treat any other health condition- with dignity, individualized care, and long-term support. 🌱

🩺 Our Substance Use Disorder Services (SUDS) include:
• Outpatient treatment for drug and alcohol use disorders
• Individual and group therapy
• Collaboration with your in-house primary care team
• Integrated care addressing behavioral, physical, and social needs

Recovery isn’t one-size-fits-all, and it isn’t a journey anyone has to walk alone. Whether substance use is mild, moderate, or severe, we stay alongside individuals and their loved ones, adapting care as needs change. 🤝

🧠 Mindful Minute Monday 🧠
Our inner dialogue has a powerful influence on how we feel, respond, and move through the world. Taking a moment to notice your thoughts especially during stress) can help you understand what’s supporting you and what might be holding you back. 🌱

Awareness is often the first step toward change. When we slow down and notice our patterns, we create space to build healthier responses and coping tools over time.

🤝 If you’re looking for additional support, Kaniksu Community Health offers Behavioral Health group therapy classes designed to help participants develop coping skills, identify triggers, and practice healthier ways to respond—all in a supportive, guided environment.

🤔💬 Thinking about group therapy but feeling unsure?
That’s completely normal. 💛

Many people worry about sharing in a group, being judged, or feeling uncomfortable at first. What often surprises them is that group therapy is a supportive, respectful space where listening is just as valuable as speaking, and participation happens at your own pace.

Over time, many participants find that the benefits outweigh the concerns:
✨ Realizing you’re not alone
🛠️ Learning practical coping tools
🤗 Gaining encouragement, accountability, and connection
💬 Feeling understood without judgment

🧠💙 Behavioral Health group therapy classes are available at Kaniksu Community Health, guided by trained professionals who prioritize safety, respect, and confidentiality.
