Chemical Dependency Professionals in  discreet "Private Practice"    
 
About Us

     Chemical Dependency is a chronic, progressive and potentially fatal disease that adversely effects all areas of a person's life.

     The treatment that Gateway Counseling offers is individualized to each client's particular needs. Treatment modalities include, but are not limited to, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Enhancement  Therapy, Reality Therapy and Person Centered Therapy. The 12 Step Recovery process is also presented.

     Each individual treated at Gateway Counseling enters the the process at their own level of understanding and awareness. Each treatment plan is specifically developed with the unique needs of the client as the focus.

     All prescribed treatment intensity levels are determined by the objective criteria of the American Society of Addiction Medicine (A.S.A.M.  ppc2r).
