Seeking help for mental health or addiction concerns is a courageous decision — and at C-Line Community Outreach Services, we make sure that first step feels supportive, clear, and stress-free.
Since 1998, our Admissions process has been designed to meet each client with compassion and respect. Whether you’re reaching out for yourself or a loved one, our dedicated team will walk you through every stage — from your first phone call to your first session — ensuring you receive care that fits your needs, goals, and schedule.
Starting treatment at C-Line is simple and confidential. Our Admissions team will guide you through three straightforward steps:

Once your plan is in place, we’ll help schedule your first session — whether in-person, via teletherapy, or during evening hours for convenience.
Our team is available to answer all questions, verify insurance, and provide support every step of the way.
