About Community Concepts Inc
Oxford County Mental Health Services started in 1991 to support families and individuals dealing with mental health concerns and addiction. The center provides assistance to clients of all ages, addressing substance use, depression, and other emotional challenges. Its approach includes outpatient counseling, immediate crisis support available around the clock, and coordinated help from a multidisciplinary team dedicated to recovery and well-being. OCMHS provides dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), outpatient sessions, group counseling, and structured support for people working through substance use recovery. The care team typically includes case managers, nurses, and peer specialists. Together, they partner with each person to identify goals, develop practical coping strategies, and strengthen overall wellness. The goal of every service is to help individuals feel safe, supported, and able to move forward on their recovery path. In addition, Oxford County Mental Health Services helps clients address housing and everyday living needs through residential programs and peer support. These services are designed to strengthen life skills, improve independence, and support progress toward more stable living. With guidance from trained staff and peer mentors, participants learn how to access housing, find employment, obtain medical care, and connect with other key community resources.
