Elmhurst Home Outpatient

Elmhurst Home offers outpatient treatment for residents of Wayne County with substance use and mental health concerns in the Boston-Edison Historic District of Detroit. Elmhurst Home, Inc. is a non-profit organization and strives to make treatment accessible for all, so no one is turned away for lack of insurance or ability to pay. The 38 Plymouth and 29 Linwood bus lines stop minutes from the building, providing access to much of Detroit. Additionally, Elmhurst Home provides transportation for participants in its outpatient programs.

Levels of Care

Elmhurst Home offers traditional outpatient treatment and an intensive outpatient treatment program (IOP). The IOP meets more frequently and is a good fit for clients needing a higher level of care. Participants in both of these programs must live in Wayne County.

Treatment Methods

Elmhurst offers psychiatric evaluation and medication management for clients in the outpatient and intensive outpatient program (IOP). Clients participate in weekly individual therapy sessions, which incorporate cognitive behavioral therapy and drama therapy, using role play to help facilitate healthy change. Elmhurst Home offers gender-specific group therapy sessions, addressing ways that mental health and substance use affects men and women differently. Clients also learn through psychoeducation, helping them to better understand their conditions and how to cope in healthy ways. Elmhurst Home provides case management for participants in the outpatient programs.
