Worst experience of my lifetime. If other options are available please explore them. This place is nothing but degrading certain ones. And allowing others to do things that are “against the rules” with no problem. Playing sides is not how to run a business. They’re not helping anyone. In my opinion.

Healing Transitions has a deeply concerning history of rehiring staff who were previously terminated for inappropriate relationships with shelter participants. In one particularly disturbing case, a re-hired employee entered into a romantic relationship with a participant and was later charged with domestic violence against that individual. Despite the seriousness of these incidents, the facility has no clear policies in place to prevent or address these ethical violations. These failures have been consistently ignored by both leadership and the board of directors. The lack of accountability is further reflected in the actions of Executive Director Chris Budnick, who is currently in a relationship with a former participant who later joined the staff. This raises major concerns about the organization’s HR practices, ethical oversight, and the professional boundaries upheld by those in leadership roles. I have repeatedly raised these issues directly with both the board and executive leadership. Despite these efforts, they have refused to adopt even basic policy changes that would protect both participants and staff from further harm. I possess extensive documentation—including audio recordings—in which members of the leadership team openly acknowledge these ethical breaches. I have attempted to share this information with local media outlets, but have received no response, likely due to Healing Transitions’ media partnership with WRAL. If you are considering this facility for a loved one—especially someone under the age of 25—I strongly urge you to reconsider. Healing Transitions is not a safe environment for vulnerable individuals, particularly young adults in early recovery. I am willing to share this documentation with anyone committed to advocating for this underserved population and demanding accountability from this institution.

I'm sure Healing Transitions have helped a lot of people, and free will is a thing, but: Before you send a loved one here, be advised this is a no-cost homeless shelter focused on recovery, with zero medical staff, only peer counseling.The staff seems to be doing everything they can... BUT: Incorrigible drug addicts and ex-cons often come to Healing Transitions freely, to mainly relieve themselves of legal and real-world responsibilities. They cannot be trusted. Your Alcoholic loved one, if not already introduced to the evils of opiods, Meth, homelessness, and IV drug users, surely will be beckoned and tempted after attending Healing Transitions. There are plenty of attendees who will most willingly drag them down with them - with needles, hard drugs, felony larceny, and homelessness - even though your loved one had never touched hard drugs or a needle before arriving at HT. They may even be eventually found homeless, deceased for over a month and skeletonized in a tent off Poole Rd. as a result, and no tox screens can even be administered. Be advised.

Other Forms of Payment

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.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

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.

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.

There are many types of drug rehab in North Carolina. To receive treatment for addiction, you can choose from many inpatient and outpatient programs. Often, participants start with detox and work through a full continuum of care that continues with ongoing support for long-term recovery.

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.

Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

Programs

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 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.

Rehabs for women provide a safe, nurturing space for female clients to heal. These treatment programs consider the specific obstacles that women can face during recovery and place a special emphasis on mental, social, physical, and reproductive health. They explore how each woman's experience has shaped the trajectory of their substance use, addressing issues such as sexual abuse and past trauma.

Clinical Services

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.
