Lifestance Health New York - 97th Street New York

This center provides outpatient care to people across a wide age range, from young children through older adults. Clinicians include licensed therapists, psychiatrists, and nurse practitioners. Each clinician concentrates on particular groups and particular conditions, so the care you receive is matched to your situation rather than delivered the same way to everyone. The clinic is one of 192 SAMHSA-listed facilities in New York City offering mental health and addiction services.

The focus here is therapy, with medication management added when a prescriber determines it is appropriate. Providers use evidence-based methods and help people develop practical tools for daily life. The setting is a clinic on West 97th Street, and sessions are offered in English and Spanish. For someone considering treatment for a substance use disorder combined with a mental health condition, the center addresses both alcohol and drug concerns. It is one of many outpatient options in Manhattan.

You can use our free helpline to compare listed information and confirm what this center truly provides before calling. We do not give treatment and do not make diagnoses. Trained advisors at the helpline link callers to licensed treatment providers; it is free, confidential, and involves no commitment.

Programs at this New York center

Outpatient care in Manhattan is available at this 97th Street clinic, where sessions come in several formats: family therapy couples counseling and individual counseling, and groups. The clinical approaches named here span cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, trauma-specific therapy, narrative therapy, and goal-oriented methods. Adult-child therapy also appears on the list, an option that can fit families sorting through relational strain.

Since care is outpatient, you go to appointments and then return home. A common program length is given as 30 days, and medication management may be part of the plan when appropriate. If you need withdrawal management or 24-hour monitoring, a detox or residential setting is the safer level of care, and our helpline can direct you toward those options.
