LIMA, OH (WLIO) - A new facility has opened to help people who are battling addiction and mental health problems.
Lighthouse Behavioral Health Solutions held an open house at their new location at 810 S Cable Rd., Lima, OH 45805. Lighthouse opened its first Lima location four years ago. Now they have renovated the former Knights of Columbus Hall into a new space that will not only allow them to help more people, but it also has an outdoor space where people can relax and garden and a peer center for clients to hang out.
Now they have renovated the former Knights of Columbus Hall into a new space that will not only allow them to help more people, but it also has an outdoor space where people can relax and garden and a peer center for clients to hang out.
"Yeah, it really gives us a great extra space. One side is for treatment, so we do group or individual counseling, and the offices are over there. And this side, having the peer, there's lots of different activities that they can do on the weekend and the evenings. You know that is when boredom usually kicks in, and you are more likely to make bad choices when you have that idle time. So, this helps fill some of that time for them," says Jamie Declercq, vice president of clinical operations of Lighthouse Behavioral Health Solutions-NW Ohio.
Besides treatment, Lighthouse also helps their clients overcome barriers to their recovery, like ride services to doctor's appointments, housing assistance, and other programs. For more information about the organization, log on to their website at https://lighthousebhsolutions.com/.
