About Sorec Behavioral Health
An outpatient center dedicated to supporting teenagers and adults through mental health and substance use concerns. Since 2018, Sorec Behavioral Health has offered a friendly, reassuring environment where recovery can feel attainable. By providing flexible, individualized treatment, the center supports people dealing with depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), bipolar disorder, and substance use. The goal is to help clients regain stability and self-assurance, strengthen their connection to the community, and move ahead with renewed direction.
Sorec offers a range of therapeutic services tailored to each person’s needs. Options include individual counseling, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), family therapy, and motivational interviewing. Together, these methods help clients better manage emotions, improve relationships, and set achievable, meaningful goals. For individuals struggling with alcohol dependence and substance use, medication-assisted treatment (MAT) provides a structured and secure route toward recovery. The center also promotes peer support groups and complementary activities such as yoga and meditation to help reduce stress and restore emotional balance.
In addition to clinical care, Sorec helps clients handle day-to-day responsibilities. Depending on the situation, staff may assist with building daily routines, managing finances, preparing for employment, and maintaining overall health. Family participation is encouraged, and sliding scale fees make services easier to access. By combining practical support with emotional guidance, Sorec helps clients create a solid base for independence while reinforcing the importance of strong support systems.
