About NM Department of Health
Conveniently close to the Roswell Air Center and only minutes from U.S. Route 285, this state-run program provides a complete range of services for adults dealing with substance use disorders (SUD) and mental health conditions that occur at the same time. The continuum includes detoxification, inpatient care, and intensive outpatient programming (IOP), with particular attention to alcohol and drug addiction, trauma recovery, and dual diagnosis treatment.
The center uses evidence-based approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing (MI), and 12-Step facilitation. Its intensive outpatient program (IOP) runs three times weekly and blends one-on-one counseling, group therapy, and ongoing mental health support. The goal is to help participants improve emotional regulation and apply healthier coping skills in everyday routines.
Medication-assisted treatment is available, including naltrexone and clonidine, supported by clinical supervision around the clock. Support continues after treatment through discharge planning, help with housing, trauma-focused counseling, and participation in self-help groups, helping sustain progress with coordinated resources and continued involvement.
