    Severe mental illness and substance use

    It is not uncommon for family members or caretakers of those suffering from multiple illnesses to seek out separate specialists for each condition. But when it comes to those grappling with severe mental illness and substance use, an integrated approach is often the best course of action. At WestBridge, we've casrefully combined treatments and therapies to address both of these problems with coordinated tactics, rather than treating them separately with therapies that might be contradictory. It's a proven approach to combating serious problems, and it's a job that we take very seriously. Whether we're employing our assertive community treatment ACT tactics or any of our other approaches, we're able to customize a treatment program that is designed for success.
