Care Options

Levels of Care

Substance use and mental health issues can occur simultaneously or as primary conditions. Effective treatment explores how mental health conditions contribute to addiction, and vice-versa. Many rehabs treat substance use disorders and mental health conditions with personalized care plans.
Residential
Residential programs for substance use and mental health with structured care and 24/7 monitoring. Treatment takes place on-site, with behavioral health professionals often providing care in group, individual, and family settings.
Sober Living
Not Offered at This Center
Transitional housing designed to support individuals recovering from substance use disorders offering a safe, supportive and structured environment for practicing long-term sobriety, while reintegrating back into daily living.
Day Treatment
In a PHP, patients live at home but follow an intensive schedule of treatment. Most programs require you to be on-site for about 40 hours per week.
Intensive Outpatient Program
An intensive outpatient program (IOP) falls between inpatient care and traditional outpatient services, with therapy and skills-building activities designed to support recovery and provide flexibility. IOP is ideal for those needing support but not the 24/7 care of a residential facility.
Outpatient
Outpatient treatment offers flexible therapeutic and medical care without the need to stay overnight in a hospital or inpatient facility. Outpatient care typically offers a range of therapies and medical interventions individuals can attend alongside daily life.
Virtual & In-Home Care
Not Offered at This Center
The delivery of therapeutic services utilizing technology such as video conferencing, online messaging or phone calls, allowing for flexibility, comfort and increased access to care.
Licensed Primary Mental Health
Some primary care providers offer mental health diagnosis and treatment. This can prevent patients from developing more serious conditions.
Co-Occurring Disorders
Substance use and mental health can occur simultaneously as co-occurring disorders. Treatment for co-occurring disorders involves therapy and other personalized interventions to address both conditions.

The facility is pretty amazing, careful, courteous, and sincere. However, some memory risks of ECT treatment were not addressed or followed up with. It was a nice environment for my loved one to receive care for substance abuse and dual-diagnosis.

Review from Rehabs.com

The staff was really pleasant and cared. You got to actually choose what you wanted from a list of items. They also would let your spouse and or children eat for free with you. They could have been a little more timely when medication was needed. We felt the staff was top notch, and they really cared. This visit was for a very close friend. They allowed whomever was on the list of visitors to come pretty much anytime of the day or night, which made it perfect to bring in my friends daughter. I firmly believe this facility really helped my friend tremendously.

I really appreciated the EMDR therapy for PTSD along with cognitive behavior therapy. I received a lot of growth from this program. I did outpatient for 3 months and it changed my life along with 12 step recovery outside the treatment center.
