When to consider help for cannabis use
An adult does not need to compare their cannabis use with someone else's before asking for help. Concern may arise when use is difficult to change, continues despite unwanted effects, or interferes with personal priorities and daily responsibilities. Some people may also have anxiety, depression, or other mental health concerns that should be considered during an assessment.
- Cannabis support can begin with a respectful conversation
- Your goals and current concerns guide the first discussion
River City Recovery approaches these conversations without stigmatizing the person seeking care. A first call can focus on what is happening now, what changes the adult wants, and whether an outpatient service may fit. Asking questions is a practical first step and does not predetermine program placement.
Levels of outpatient support available

Available levels include a Partial Hospitalization Program, Intensive Outpatient Program, evening IOP, and outpatient therapy. Each offers a different amount of structure while allowing adults to live outside a residential facility. Evening IOP meets on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 6:15 to 9:15 PM, although callers should reconfirm that schedule.

Building a useful outpatient care plan
Support for cannabis use may involve more than discussing the substance itself. River City Recovery provides individual therapy, medication management, drug testing and monitoring, family support, case management, and medical oversight. Clinical and medical assessments help identify relevant needs.
- Cannabis care can include mental health needs
- Your assessment guides which services fit the care plan
Care coordination and referrals can address needs that require another provider or a service outside River City Recovery's scope. No specific mix of services is promised for every participant. Instead, the plan should reflect the person's assessment and continued needs. Adults can review the mental health information when emotional symptoms are part of the reason they are seeking support.
