Medicine Wheel Recovery Services

MWRS offers comprehensive mental health services tailored for individuals diagnosed with co-occurring disorders, which include both a substance use disorder and a mental health disorder, as defined by the DSM-V-TR. These services are provided by credentialed or licensed professionals under direct supervision, ensuring that all aspects of care are delivered cohesively alongside substance abuse and problem gambling services when appropriate. The integrated approach includes thorough assessments, coordinated service records, and triaged service planning, all designed to support the individual’s journey toward sobriety.

MWRS emphasizes a collaborative approach, involving service recipients in their treatment planning and the creation of proactive safety and crisis plans. This participatory process empowers individuals to take an active role in their recovery, aligning with the organization’s commitment to supporting long-term sobriety.

The mental health services at MWRS encompass a variety of evidence-based therapies, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and trauma-informed practices. Specialized approaches such as the Trauma Recovery and Empowerment Model, Narrative Therapy, and support for historical trauma and unresolved grief are also available. In addition, MWRS offers training in suicide assessment and prevention through programs like ASSIST and Mental Health First Aid, incorporating tribal best practices to provide culturally relevant care. Through this comprehensive suite of services, MWRS strives to support individuals in achieving lasting mental health and sobriety.
