United Community and Family Services is a dedicated treatment center located in New London, CT, serving individuals and families seeking compassionate mental health and substance use support. The facility specializes in treating patients with co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders, recognizing that many people struggle with both conditions simultaneously. With a commitment to accessibility and cultural competence, the center provides services in Spanish and accommodations for individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing, ensuring that language and communication barriers do not prevent anyone from receiving the help they need.
United Community and Family Services offers outpatient treatment programs tailored to patients who do not require 24-hour residential care but benefit from structured, professional support. Their mental health services address conditions such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and trauma, while their substance use treatment addresses addiction and recovery. The facility specializes in co-occurring disorder treatment, which means clinicians are trained to address mental health and substance use issues together rather than in isolation, leading to more comprehensive and effective recovery. Outpatient care allows patients to maintain their daily responsibilities while receiving evidence-based therapy, counseling, and support from experienced professionals.
United Community and Family Services accepts a wide range of payment options, including self-pay, Medicaid, Medicare, private health insurance, and military insurance (VA/Tricare), making treatment accessible to diverse populations. Insurance coverage for mental health and substance use treatment is protected under federal law, including the Mental Health Parity Act, which requires insurers to cover mental health and addiction services at levels comparable to medical and surgical care. If cost concerns you, rest assured that the center works with patients to explore all available payment options and financial assistance programs so that affordability is never a barrier to getting care.
