Building Better Lives For All Ages

Counseling and Recovery Services of Oklahoma (CRSOK), is dedicated to providing comprehensive mental health, physical wellness, and substance abuse services to individuals and families in our community.  Our care coordination is designed to maximize the overall health of our clients, as well as to provide inclusive and accessible care for all. Contracting with the Oklahoma Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services (ODMHSAS), we are solely measured by our clients’ improved behavioral health and physical wellness outcomes.

We are the only behavioral health organization in Oklahoma certified in the internationally recognized trauma-informed model called Sanctuary. This model assumes that trauma, stress, and adversity are universal human experiences which shape our behavior. As a Sanctuary Community, we offer a safe environment where clients and staff learn to manage and change behavior and heal from these experiences.

Our wide array of services and support are inclusive and accessible to all. No two people are alike in their journey to recovery. Every client’s care plan is unique to their physical, behavioral, medicinal and community support needs.

140,000 Tulsa area residents have a mental illness. We screen and treat people for suicide risk, substance use and serious illness. Lives depend on us and we depend on you. Will you help us continue to make a difference?
