About Brandywine Counseling and Community Services Wilmington
If you’ve ever felt like no one really gets how complicated addiction can be, Brandywine Counseling and Community Services in Wilmington, Delaware, is the kind of place that truly gets it. This isn’t just a treatment center. It’s a hub for real, whole-person healing and it’s been helping people reclaim their lives for over 35 years.
More Than Just Treatment
What’s really great about BCCS is how much they offer under one roof. Whether you’re looking for outpatient counseling, medication assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid addiction or intensive support through their IOP program, they’ve got options for where you’re at right now. And if you’re living with a mental health diagnosis alongside substance use, their team is fully equipped to treat both, because those things don’t exist in isolation.
They also have a STARs mobile treatment program (yep, they’ll come to you) and a strong trauma-informed approach that makes sure every step of your care is built on trust and safety. That’s huge when you’re carrying the weight of past trauma while trying to build a better future.
Safe Spaces, Real Resources
Their Wilmington Drop-In Center is something special. It’s not just for appointments, it’s a warm and welcoming space for folks who might be experiencing homelessness or just need a break. There’s coffee, hot showers, clothing, food, job resources, and even health screenings.
Beyond their Wilmington Drop-In Center, BCCS runs a wide range of programs that meet people at every stage in recovery. Their RISE program helps at-risk teens with multi-layered support designed specifically for teens navigating trauma, substance use and mental health issues. They also operate an Infectious Disease Clinic in partnership with ChristianaCare. You’ll also find resources like GED support, parenting help, and educational groups that provide real-life skills people can use after treatment.
