About Tulua Health
At Tulua Health, the team views substance use as a mental health concern. This outpatient program for addiction treatment takes a distinctive path by focusing on the mental health factors that may drive, worsen, or accompany drug and alcohol use disorders. They emphasize that supporting conditions such as depression, anxiety, and trauma can help patients gain clarity and make healthier choices. Services include partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP), outpatient treatment, and transitional living options for people who require additional structure and support. Their PHP represents the highest level of outpatient care and is especially appropriate for individuals who need medically supervised detox or medication management, since those consistent medical services are not provided through their IOP and outpatient programs.
Tulua also provides modern, welcoming settings for healing, including both the outpatient office and transitional living homes. The center works to expand beyond the typical model of behavioral health care while still delivering effective treatment. Along with evidence-based approaches used in individual and group counseling, they incorporate a wide range of holistic services to support the whole person. Patients may take part in meditation, sound baths, fitness activities, eye movement therapy (EMDR), yoga, and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).
