VCS recognizes that addiction is a chronic, biological brain disease-and like many diseases, a simple and easy answer does not exist.

The VCS outpatient addiction treatment program helps adult clients gain insight and provides them with the help they need to learn new skills and ways for resolving problems while remaining employed and with their families. In a positive and professional setting, our skilled professionals, psychiatrists, nurses, licensed therapists and certified substance abuse counselors work with clients to develop individualized treatment plans, learn how to cope with cravings, and identify the root causes of their substance abuse.
