New Horizon Counseling Services

Coronavirus Update Regarding Services

New Horizon Care Centers WILL continue to provide services during these challenging times, with some minor modifications to how we provide those services.

Assessments, Group Counseling and Individual Counseling for Substance Use Disorders, Mental Health and Problem Gambling will occur through a HIPAA compliant, audio/visual web-based telehealth platform.. Individuals with limited internet access can still receive services over the phone or through digital communication.

Isabella House and Sun Ray Court are still accepting referrals. However, in accordance with social distancing recommendations, both facilities have reduced their patient capacity by approximately one-third.

Understanding Addiction

People start using drugs for all different reasons—curiosity, to have a good time, because friends are doing it, to improve athletic performance, to numb emotional pain, and more.

Drug use doesn’t automatically lead to a substance use disorder, and it’s often hard to pinpoint a single moment where drug use goes from casual to problematic. Often, drug abuse and addiction are less about the frequency in which a person uses and more about the reasons people turn to drugs in the first place and the consequences of their abuse.
