A Better Tomorrow Counseling Service

About A Better Tomorrow Counseling Service

A Better Tomorrow Counseling Service is an addiction treatment center and mental health provider in Meunster, Texas, offering counseling services for those in need of emotional and behavioral care. The practice is operated by counselor Kerri Kennedy-Reiter, who operates from the Meunster Family Medical Clinic and also has an office in Gainesville.

They provide mental health counseling, accepting Medicaid, private insurance and private pay at varying levels of care. Clients in the area appreciate their accessibility and the flexibility in payment options.

Abundant Specialties Beyond Addictions

This counseling center can help with drug and alcohol addiction, but that’s only the tip of the iceberg. They can treat a wide range of issues for their clients, like depression and anxiety, trauma and PTSD, and women’s issues. They also have a focus on major life transitions, with specialized counseling for new moms and for people who are going through a divorce.

They treat clients of all ages here as well. They have specialty therapy for kids using play therapy and other techniques, and they also have services for teenagers as well as adults.

Counseling Alongside Medical Care

I find it helpful that this counseling service operates out of a medical clinic. This makes it easy for your counselor and your primary care doctor to stay in communication and to manage your recovery together in a cohesive and holistic way.

Addiction Treatment Programs

Dual Diagnosis
Many people with addiction issues also have a mental health diagnosis, which is known as a dual diagnosis. Be sure to find a rehab in Texas that can treat both. A mental health diagnosis can feed into an addiction, making both worse. In a dual diagnosis program, these concerns are addressed along with typical evidence-based detox, inpatient treatment, and outpatient care.

Therapies

Individual Therapy
During individual therapy in Texas, clients work with a professional to address specific individual concerns. During individual therapy, you have the freedom and confidentiality to share personal issues and past experiences that may impact your substance use. Your therapist will help you work through those concerns and develop new ways of handling them.
Group Therapy
Attending group therapy in Texas is a way to overcome shame and isolation, helping you establish long-term recovery. Sessions generally last 60 to 90 minutes and give you a chance to discover others’ experiences, hear about the impact of substance use, and learn important new life skills.
Family Therapy
Attending family therapy in Texas is a way to address broken relationships and dysfunction, helping you establish long-term recovery. Substance use treatment includes detox, inpatient treatment, and outpatient care, and family therapy may be a part of each of these stages. The goal is to help families address past events and broken relationships and develop healthy ways of relating to each other.
