We thank the TWI team from the bottom of our parent hearts. The team helped our family, saved our child's life. When you are considering Turning Winds, you are likely going through a very rough time in your life. We were looking for options to find help and struggling to navigate mental health care in the US. You want your child to be safe and well! When we visited Turning Winds site, they opened the doors and let us see everything. We have friends there for life. Our worries disappeared and we knew were in good hands. Our problems didn't magically disappear, but we got the help we desperately needed. I encourage to make a visit, talk with the team, see for yourself. Thank you TW team!

Turning Winds helped my son understand his behaviors and truly helped drive his growth and self worth. They consistently were a resource for him and his family and always made sure both him, and his family, were taken care of. Would definitely recommend.

Accepted Insurance

Please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Turning Winds works with several private insurance providers, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

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

Clients enrolled in outpatient rehab typically reside in their own homes and many continue to work and/or attend school while receiving addiction treatment. The frequency and intensity of outpatient treatment varies based upon the clients' evolving needs. Many programs offer a full continuum of outpatient care, including partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP), sober living/halfway housing, and standard outpatient services. The most common treatment modalities are psychotherapy, life skills training, and medication assisted treatment (MAT).

Clients participating in a rehab aftercare program have typically already completed detox and/or intensive inpatient treatment and are reintegrating into their home, workplace, and community. Rehab aftercare services generally include outpatient counseling, recovery education, holistic care, and medication assisted treatment (MAT). Many clients also continue to receive recovery support after being discharged from outpatient treatment. Case managers and care teams help clients access the services they need at each phase of the recovery journey.

Addiction recovery based on 12 step program models emphasize emotional, psychological, and spiritual growth. The 12 step recovery strategy depends on intensive peer support, including regular attendance at group meetings, which are anonymous, free, open to the public, and available 365 days per year in most communities. Participants also receive one-on-one mentoring from a self-selected peer sponsor as they work through the 12 steps of recovery, which relate to self-awareness, forgiveness, accountability, and acceptance.

A successful drug intervention in Montana requires careful collaboration between family members and intervention services. An intervention specialist helps the individual understand how their substance abuse is affecting themselves and others and understand how treatment can help. This professional may be certified as an interventionist or possess other mental health qualifications. They walk everyone through the intervention step by step, then provide follow-up services for treatment.

Often referred to as "day treatment," a partial hospitalization program (PHP) provides structured therapy and support while allowing you to return home each day. PHP treatment is often used as a short-term alternative to inpatient hospitalization or a step-down option after a residential program. With a minimum commitment of 20 hours per week for an average of 90 days, PHP treatment often provides relapse prevention, medication management, and behavioral therapy services. Most providers offer coverage for PHP treatment.

Withdrawing from drugs or alcohol on your own can be difficult and even dangerous. That's why detox facilities offer 24-hour clinical care in Montana to manage this process for you. Withdrawal symptoms can lead to heart palpitations, seizures, or other severe reactions. However, in a supervised clinical setting, medical staff are available to treat these symptoms and allow you to safely detox and overcome drug dependence.

Treatments

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.

Clinical Services

During cognitive behavioral therapy in Montana, patients learn to be their own therapists. They develop coping skills so they can change their thinking and behavior in day to day life. This helps them overcome mental and substance use disorders.

Your rehab program in Montana may include dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). This method helps you understand your feelings, accept them, and learn to manage them. With the skills you develop, you'll be able to make positive changes. Sessions include both individual and group settings.

Group therapy sessions for men and women are facilitated by trained therapists who incorporate evidence based therapies to help you recover from drug and alcohol addiction. Therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing help support lasting change and sustainable recovery.

Part of drug and alcohol addiction treatment is the use of individual therapy to encourage a collaborative process between the therapist and the patient. This helps uncover the root causes of substance use and address the personal experiences and emotional struggles that may drive addictive behavior. Ultimately, patients gain insight and develop new coping skills to support recovery.

The role of the counselor who applies motivational interviewing is to listen and reflect rather than offer advice or warnings. By expressing the client's own thoughts back to them, the therapist allows the client to reflect on their motivations and come to their own conclusions about their need for change.

Trauma therapy helps you process traumatic events that you may have witnessed or experienced. This is the first step to healing from these events, integrating them into a more coherent narrative, and improving your resilience.

Couples therapy is a form of talk therapy. The goal is to relieve distress in the relationship and improve interactions between the two partners. This often involves learning ways to manage feelings, communicate, and resolve conflict.

Family therapy offers a platform for open and honest dialogue about the challenges that addiction has created within the family unit. Using guided sessions, your therapist helps family members develop healthy communication skills and address unresolved issues. By working together, families can help support their loved one's sobriety.

Life skills are the foundational abilities you need to manage day to day life and stress. They are a set of interpersonal and psychological skills that allow you to navigate challenges and perform necessary tasks. Training in these skills is incorporated into drug rehab to equip you for success in recovery.

Typically, addiction leads to poor dietary choices, which leads to nutrient deficiencies. You don't get the vitamins and minerals you need for daily functioning, which can make recovery even harder. Nutrition therapy addresses these issues and gives you the dietary support you need to get on the right track for recovery.

Our son was struggling with some addiction issues in the fall of 2024. We sent him to a wilderness program, but once completed we knew he wasn't ready to come home. We did a ton of research and interviewed numerous therapeutic boarding schools and made the decision to have him go to Turning Winds. The decision wasn't made lightly, and we honestly weren't sure what to expect. We read all of the online reviews, and to be honest were concerned about whether he would receive the treatment he needed. And it took a while, but TWI was able to properly diagnose his issues and get him on the road to recovery. The staff is incredibly supportive, and we were treated like family. It wasn't easy for our son or us in so many ways- from the distance apart, to the tough therapy sessions we had going through difficult topics, to the cost. But we are so thankful for the people there who poured into him, and now he has moved on to a young adult transition program. We've seen a marked change in his life, and much of that is because he's learned about what has caused his problems, but more importantly how he can work through them. We couldn't fix him- we had tried everything (years of therapy, in-patient hospital stays etc.) before he went to the wilderness program. We didn't expect perfection but just seeing him begin to thrive as he's begun his transition program has been a huge blessing in our lives. And we're thankful to Turning Winds for helping our family. Life isn't easy, and when you see your own child struggling it's hard to know where to turn. We're thankful that we ran across Turning Winds, and we're thankful for how they helped turn our family around. We don't know what the future holds for our son, but we're thankful that TWI has at least given him a chance to succeed and learn more about his problems and given him the tools to manage them. I would encourage you to give Turning Winds a call and talk with them. It could help keep your family together.

Our family placed a great deal of trust in Turning Winds during a very difficult time. Unfortunately, what I witnessed left me deeply disappointed. Throughout my nephew’s time there, family members spent months trying to get answers regarding his care, records, insurance matters, and billing concerns. Instead of clear communication, there seemed to be ongoing delays, unanswered questions, and a lack of transparency. One of the most devastating aspects of this experience was watching my nephew be discharged after only three months, despite our family being told he would likely require six to nine months of treatment. Based on what our family was told, ongoing insurance issues and claim handling problems played a significant role in that outcome. Shortly after his discharge, he relapsed. No treatment center can guarantee success, but families place their trust in these programs to advocate for patients and communicate honestly when challenges arise. Our family was left feeling that financial and administrative issues took precedence over the treatment and recovery of a young person who desperately needed help. If you are considering treatment options for a loved one, I strongly encourage you to do extensive research and carefully explore all available alternatives and AVOID Turning Winds.

If I could give zero stars, I would. My family entrusted Turning Winds with someone we love during one of the most vulnerable times in his life. What followed was a complete lack of transparency and accountability. After being expressly authorized by my nephew's mother to obtain information and records on her behalf, I spent months trying to get answers regarding treatment, insurance claims, billing issues, and records requests. Instead of straightforward answers, I encountered delays, deflection, and an apparent unwillingness to provide even basic information. After being told that my request would be reviewed and that the documents would be gathered, I followed up weeks later seeking an update. Instead of receiving the requested records, I was informed that the documents would not be released to me and was instructed to cease all communication with the organization altogether. Not a single question was answered. No records were produced. No legal basis for withholding them was provided. After months of effort, the response was essentially: stop asking. I was also deeply troubled to learn that a scholarship awarded to my nephew was tied to leaving positive Google and Yelp reviews. In my opinion, requesting positive reviews in exchange for financial assistance raises serious concerns about the credibility of an organization's online reputation. Families deserve honesty, transparency, and respect. Based on my experience, Turning Winds failed on all three.
