About Lokahi Treatment Center Hilo
Lokahi Treatment Center has five offices throughout Hawaii, including this one in Hilo, that serves adults, children and teens. They offer assessments, mental health and addiction treatment, and court ordered classes such as anger management.
The Center accepts most insurance plans, which may include Medicare, Medicaid and private insurance.
Outpatient Treatment for Mental Health and Addiction
Lokahi is focused on providing culturally appropriate care for those on the Big Island. They use evidence based approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) combined with existential psychotherapy.
Services include substance use and mental health assessments, addiction treatment and mental health counseling. They have individual and group therapy, including both gender specific groups and co-ed groups.
They provide family counseling as well. This can be vital, since substance use can impact family relationships in a big way. By getting high quality therapy, loved ones can learn more about addiction and recovery, communication skills and how to set healthy boundaries. As a result, your family can go from being estranged to being a solid ally in your sober support system.
Court Ordered Classes
I noticed that Lokahi also has classes that fulfill court requirements for various charges. The clinic offers assessments for anger management and domestic violence, as well as classes on both topics.
Court ordered classes have a specific number of hours you must attend, and Lokahi will send information about your attendance and progress to the courts. Once you meet the legal requirements, you’ll be done with the classes and able to take the next steps forward.
