Ambulatory Care/

Therapy occurs individually and in a group setting by clinicians who are very experienced in their field, many who are licensed drug and alcohol counselors.  Lowell House offers substance abuse evaluations, conducted by licensed or specialized clinicians to assist in determining whether a substance abuse problem exists and identifying the correct level of treatment. Intakes or evaluations are made by appointment.
