Oklahoma Families First, Holdenville, Oklahoma

Oklahoma Families First Overview

Oklahoma Families First, located in Oklahoma, is a treatment facility that provides adequate care to individuals with substance abuse and chemical dependency issues. The treatment organization which currently operates nine locations and has been in operation since the mid-1990s. The facility constantly only offers substance abuse treatment (outpatient) in the Seminole and Holdenville locations. The website features the Ada Office location as a substance abuse treatment location but at this time, no longer offers such care here. Treatments offered in both locations are similar and both involve clients coming in for an assessment, getting a treatment plan, and getting a combination of case management. This case management incorporates all treatment schedules, group, individual, and family therapy.
The first stage of treatment involves clients coming in for an initial evaluation. This assessment is done to help the therapists and counselors discover the initial problem and the best course of treatment for the client. The evaluation involves assessing both the behavioral health of the individual as well as, substance abuse. This assessment will also help determine the intensity of treatment for the client, some clients might attend therapy multiple times a week, and some clients are only required to attend outpatient just once a week or month.
Some clients make it OFF and choose the facility instead of incarceration. This program is for clients who choose the facility as an alternative to incarceration via the Juvenile Drug Court or Drug Court. The facility at this time does not offer inpatient treatment to clients at this time, but clients requiring such intensive treatment will be referred to an outside behavioral facility.
The facility incorporates evidence-based treatment modalities during substance abuse treatment. Clients are offered both one-on-one individual therapy and group therapy, helping them find a balance and have accountability. Qualified therapists facilitate groups and “go with the flow” for group discussions instead of addressing a set list of topics. Different groups offer a wide variety of topics and group members. Some groups are tailored to client’s specific issues, and others offer a variety of addicts. Some of the groups are process-based, while others are more didactic. Clients and their loved ones can even participate in family therapy, and this therapy can take place either at home or in the counselor’s office.
The staff at the facility is made up of licensed professional counselors, licensed clinical social workers, marriage and family therapists, certified addiction and drug counselors, licensed behavioral practitioners, licensed alcohol and drug counselors, and many more.
