Claim Profile

About Adventist HealthCare Behavioral Health and Wellness Services

Adventist HealthCare Behavioral Health and Wellness Services was a mental and behavioral health facility. Formerly based in Clarksburg, Maryland, they used to provide support for adults in the local area. They accepted most insurance options, including Maryland Medicaid and Medicare. The facility is now closed.

Outpatient Addiction Treatment Services in Clarksburg

Programs that were offered here included intensive outpatient programs (IOPs) and a structured outpatient program. These were available to adults aged 18 and older and used what’s known as a matrix model curriculum to support clients through intervention and group work.

Programs typically took place over three hours in the morning, which meant participants could spend the rest of their day working, studying or dedicating their time to other commitments alongside recovery. As part of these programs, participants would receive personalized treatment plans to see them through. Clients could also access case management services, group therapy, as well as drug testing services as needed. Relapse prevention workshops were also included, and support and education was available to clients’ families.

Referrals & Continuing Care

Once individuals completed the programs offered here, they would also have access to continuing care to support a sustainable and long-term recovery. For individuals who needed further support for more severe addiction or substance abuse issues, referral services were also available.

Accepted Insurance

Adventist HealthCare Behavioral Health and Wellness Services works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Other Forms of Payment

Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.

Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.

Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.

Military members, veterans, and eligible dependents have access to specific insurance programs that help them get the care they need. TRICARE and VA insurance can help you access low cost or no cost addiction and mental health treatment. Programs that accept military insurance often have targeted treatment focused on the unique challenges military members, veterans, and their families face.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient
Find compassionate care for mental illness at Adventist HealthCare Behavioral Health & Wellness Services’ Outpatient Wellness Clinics in Rockville, Takoma Park, Clarksburg, and Salisbury, Maryland. At the first appointment, Adventist HealthCare team members work closely with patients, family members and caregivers to perform a behavioral health assessment and develop a personalized treatment plan.
medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox
Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal.
intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient
If you, your client or a loved one who is 18 years or older experiences chemical dependency with or without a mental illness, turn to an Adventist HealthCare intensive outpatient program for help. Rely on them for assistance transitioning back into everyday life after inpatient psychiatric care, or choose intensive outpatient care to begin your behavioral health treatment. With intensive outpatient care, patients live at home and work or attend school during the day. Therapy sessions take place at night so participants can stick to their everyday routines as much as possible.
24-hour icon24-Hour Clinical Care
At certain points in the recovery process, it's important to have support available 24/7. 24-hour clinical care offers a safe environment in which to recover from drug or alcohol addiction in peace, knowing medical detox and other treatment will happen with professionals on hand.
inpatient iconInpatient
When children, adolescents or adults experience mental health symptoms that need immediate care, inpatient treatment can help. Adventist HealthCare’s inpatient programs stabilize behavioral health conditions so you, your loved one or your client stays safe, functions better and returns to the community as soon as possible. In a safe, structured setting supervised 24 hours a day, children ages 8–12 explore the relationship between their thoughts, feelings and actions. Youths ages 13–17 benefit from a secure, structured, therapeutic environment at Adventist HealthCare Behavioral Health & Wellness Services’ locations in Rockville. Adults get access to treatment 24 hours a day for symptoms of depression, anxiety and/or trauma.
12-step icon12-Step
12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).

Treatments

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

Once a person has become addicted to a substance, drug rehab in Maryland is often necessary to overcome that addiction. These programs provide the tools individuals need to manage the physical, mental, and emotional issues involved and begin a successful recovery journey.

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Take advantage of treatment for mental health conditions that occur with or without substance abuse symptoms. If your loved one or client experiences co-occurring disorders, the unit will provide recovery support and education.

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Programs

adult-program thumbnail image
Adult Program
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
young-adult-program thumbnail image
Young Adult Program
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.

Clinical Services

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

Creativity is inherently healing, and can help those in recovery express thoughts or feelings they might not otherwise be able to. Creative arts therapy can include music, poetry/writing, painting, sculpting, dance, theater, sandplay, and more. Unlike traditional art, the final product matters far less than the experience of creation and expression itself.

Eating disorders include anorexia, bulimia, binge eating, and dysfunctional eating patterns. Many psychologists and other mental health professionals consider eating disorders to be food addictions, meaning food is being used in an addictive way (similar to drug or alcohol addiction). Certain substance abuse treatment programs will have treatment for eating disorders as one of the services offered. An eating disorder may also present as a co-occuring disorder or dual diagnosis alongside drug and alcohol addiction.

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.

Nutrition therapy, aka medical nutrition therapy (MNT), is a way of treating physical, emotional, and medical conditions through diet. Specific dietary plans are designed by professional nutritionists or registered dietitians, and patients follow them in order to positively affect their physical and mental health.

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.

The tech who drew my blood was great, quick and painless. The bathrooms in this facility are disgusting. No soap or towels and the toilet was covered in feces. I'll spare you from any photos of that.

I really like this place. Super fast and very professional. I have very invisible veins and it normally takes at least two tries in other places to draw the blood. But they did it without any difficulty. Love the service. Hope they re-open soon.

Even though there were several people ahead of me, the women who checked me in were working hard to get us all taken care of. When it was my turn, the woman took my blood and I felt absolutely nothing! Terrific!

What a fantastic experience! Arrived early for my appointment and I was taken back almost immediately. Vani (or Voni) the technician was incredible. For the very first time, I didn't even feel the needle for go in for my bloodwork. Incredible! Words cannot express how great she made this experience. Place is clean, bright and a nice waiting room. Plenty of parking.

I arrived at 7:15 only to find the waiting area full, but I wasn’t in a rush, so I patiently waited. The two ladies amazed me because they were calling me back within 20 minutes and I was out by 7:45. They are very efficient and cleared that waiting area quickly. When I left, there was only 1 person waiting. I am very pleased with my visit!

The lady there was so sweet, warm and welcoming! It’s 11-28-23 and she’s working all by herself. She did my blood work and it didn’t hurt at all!! I hope she knows that the kindness she provided made my day and helped me to not be so afraid of needles.
