Mental Health and Recovery
You do not have to know just which service you need before you call. Learn about Mental Health and Recovery, then talk with Choice about your goals and the support available now.

Start with the answer
Start with a clear next step.
Your first task is to describe both mental health and substance use concerns without assigning yourself a diagnosis. Admissions and Contact supports direct Choice questions, while the Recovery Resource Center offers basic context. Mental health experiences vary, and substance use treatment should be personal. A qualified professional can listen to what is going on, assess your needs, and guide the safest next step.
A direct talk can help you learn what this means for your needs. Substance use concerns may also interact with daily life and recovery needs. Share what you have noticed in plain language rather than relying on a label you are unsure about.
Call Choice and take the next step.
The admissions team can listen, explain current outpatient options, and help you begin without requiring you to know every program detail first.
