Options Treatment Programs

At its Appleton, Wisconsin office, Options Treatment Programs Inc. brings mental health and substance use counseling together through counselors who hold credentials in both fields. The practice helps clients address depression, anxiety, anger, and substance use disorders (SUD), including situations where mental health and substance use concerns overlap. Rather than placing everyone in the same program, counselors consider each person's circumstances and the areas they want to address.

Building Skills Through Counseling

Counselors begin with an evaluation to understand each client's difficulties, strengths, and current circumstances. They use evidence-based counseling and a solutions-focused approach to establish goals and identify practical ways to address problems. Sessions involve developing tools and skills that clients can apply outside appointments. Counselors also review what is and is not working, allowing treatment recommendations to reflect the challenges clients discuss during counseling.

Involving Families in Treatment

Family involvement plays a central role in the practice's counseling philosophy. Counselors encourage relatives to participate from the first appointment through the end of treatment, recognizing that each family has its own way of functioning. They emphasize respect, empathy, and individuality when working with clients and their families. For appointment access, clients can choose in-person counseling, telehealth, or a combination of both.
