Student Therapy & Mental Health Resources in Eugene, OR

College can be an incredibly exciting and pivotal phase of your life. For many people, college is a time to learn how to navigate life with newfound freedom and responsibilities. It can also be stressful, demanding and isolating. The excitement of new experiences, freedom and self-discovery can also bring up feelings of anxiety, stress and self-doubt.

Balancing academic pressure, a social life, homework and finals while also struggling with homesickness or loneliness can all be incredibly stressful.

What is Outpatient Treatment?

Our college student outpatient programs provide counseling, group therapy and peer support for individuals suffering from mental health issues, personality disorders, or drug and alcohol addiction in college. 

Our schedule at Insight Northwest Recovery’s outpatient center is pre-determined and varies based on the level of outpatient programs and the needs of our clients. These levels of treatment allow you to receive the care you need without having to reside at a facility and gradually help you integrate the skills you have learned into your life for long-term recovery.

Co-occurring Treatment for College Students 

College can be an overwhelming experience for anyone – not to mention if you are dealing with mental health issues and/or drug addiction.

If you are a student, you may be exposed to:

• New experiences

• Stressful routines and social circles which can lead to an increased risk of drug use and alcohol use

• Academic strains

• Social pressures

• Financial stress

These factors can all affect mental health and can make it easy to turn to substance use to cope.

While alcohol use remains the most prevalent type of addiction among college students, opioid addiction has also impacted this population. The rise in prescription opioid misuse, as well as the use of illicit opioids like heroin and synthetic opioids like fentanyl, has contributed to increased concerns about opioid addiction among college students. We are here to provide support and community resources to college students who may be struggling with addiction.

What is Integrated Treatment?

Cooccurring Disorder Treatment can also be referred to as integrated treatment or dual diagnosis treatment. It is an approach to treating individuals who have both a substance use disorder and a mental health disorder. These co-occurring disorders are very common, as students with mental health disorders may turn to substances as a way to self-medicate, which can lead to addiction.

At Insight Northwest Recovery, our approach takes into consideration that mental health challenges and substance use disorders are often intertwined and that successful treatment requires addressing both. Integrated treatment involves addressing both the substance use disorder and the mental health disorder simultaneously, while developing a treatment plan that supports your recovery long-term.

Who Outpatient Treatment Can Help

The pressures of student life can be a challenging time and struggling with mental health issues and addiction can make it feel overwhelming and difficult to navigate. Outpatient treatment is ideal for students who need extra support with overcoming addiction and mental health challenges.
