Naturally You Counseling & Wellness

Naturally You Counseling & Wellness, based in North Myrtle Beach, SC, is one of the SAMHSA-registered treatment programs operating in SC. The facility's programming is outpatient (Outpatient, Dual Dx), not residential. What this page can help with is the frame — what to ask, what to verify, what to compare against.

Care levels at Naturally You Counseling & Wellness

On care levels specifically: Naturally You Counseling & Wellness is an outpatient-focused program (Outpatient, Dual Dx) — patients live at home or in sober living and attend treatment sessions. This level of care is clinically appropriate for mild-to-moderate substance use disorder, or for patients stepping down from residential. What that means in practice is that matching Naturally You Counseling & Wellness to the right clinical situation depends on whether you or a loved one needs the level of care this facility actually offers — which is a clinician's judgment, not a facility's sales pitch.

Insurance and payment

Naturally You Counseling & Wellness accepts both Medicaid and commercial insurance, which is the broadest payer profile and typically correlates with programs that operate at scale across the economic spectrum. The single most useful pre-admission move on insurance is requesting the facility send you — in writing, by email — the specific benefits verification for your specific plan product. That document is the answer to most post-admission billing disputes.

Specialty programming

The facility's documented specialty programming includes: Adult women, Adult men. If that matches what you or your family member need, great — and worth asking specifically about what the programming looks like day-to-day (how many hours per week of specialty-specific content, who leads it, what credentials they hold).

Before you call

Three questions to put to Naturally You Counseling & Wellness before admission: the specific ASAM level the facility is billing; the written Verification of Benefits for your specific plan product; the MAT policy (continuation of buprenorphine or methadone during residential, specifically). If the clinical situation involves opioid use disorder, confirm explicitly whether Naturally You Counseling & Wellness offers medication-assisted treatment — buprenorphine, methadone, or naltrexone. Programs that do not are operating outside the current standard of care. Getting answers in writing protects against the downstream surprises.
