Everyone's recovery journey is unique. Whether it looks like residential rehab for 30 days, an outpatient program, or virtual therapy, you can find a level of care that fits your needs.

Sober Living

Review from Rehabs.com

Promises, promises, promises, and none of them kept. The view of this facility from the outside looking in before attending is 180 degrees out of phase with the view from within the facility. The facility was pleasant enough, but, the promises for therapy and individual counseling were complete hogwash. Once inside, and once the insurance money began to flow for the allowed 31 days, the entire "game" by the staff became one of obfuscation, confusion and double talk. Hiding behind the ruse of HIPAA concerns, promises that were made on the way in were ignored, calls were not returned, messages were not passed on, and the dysfunction within became more and more apparent. Staff would say and do anything to prolong one's stay in the facility, but they would not lift a finger to actually help the person with one-on-one counseling. Assigned therapists or case managers were entirely inaccessible and/or unreceptive to what the guest said. As long as White Sands could bill (and be assured of payment) for each and every day, they had no incentive to perform active rehabilitation functions. In fact, very sincere folks who had stayed their entire insurance allotment of 31 days, and thus run out of funding, were summarily dismissed without a plan, without having developed a plan, and without appropriate counseling. This was observed as the modus operandi many times while there. It is not so much that the place is a horrible place to be, as it is probably more comfortable than your average rehabilitation center. However it is also entirely true that it does NO GOOD for the people who need the help. The only thing (and I do mean, the ONLY thing) that got any attention was to say, "I am leaving tomorrow at 9:30AM. Have my sign out paperwork and my personal items ready for me by that time." That got their attention. I am quite sure that no one leaves this place without an "AMA" (Against Medical Advise) scrip, because the number marching orders are: 1) keep billing the insurance company and 2) when that fails, cover your butt!

I just want to make sure that the Owner of White Sands knows what a Gem of an Employee Trey is! Without Trey, my son would not be in recovery right now. He is so prompt and dedicated in his work. He certainly needs to be recognized for his devotion to this company!!

Review from Rehabs.com

I came to White Sands in January to change my life for the better and get over my overwhelming addictions to alcohol and benzos. I've been gone for 5 months now and I've been sober for 6 months. White Sands was the best thing I've ever done for myself and my family. The staff is amazing, I met so many fellow recovering alcoholics that worked there and helped guide me on this journey and my new life. I am forever grateful and I recommend this facility to anyone looking for treatment here.

I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at this facility and my recovery is a testimony to the care and discipline of the staff at white sands. My case manager helped me to set up and develop an aftercare plan I am still using to walk out my new life today. I would suggest this treatment center to anyone who is serious and honest about their willingness to do what’s necessary for success.

We love hearing about your treatment experience
