They don't offer any kind of real treatment, they depend on clients who are court-ordered so don't make any kind of effort in providing quality service. They are only interested in the money and not about the people.
About Broad Ripple Counseling Center
Broad Ripple Counseling Center assists adults who have behavioral and mental health conditions, including substance use disorders and sex offenses. You’ll find them on North College Ave in Indianapolis, Indiana.
The center is in a suburban alleyway, but there’s plenty of parking behind the lot. The White River flows by the location, and the Vogue Theater is a local landmark. If you need to unwind between sessions, check out Dan Wakefield Park, which is only a couple of blocks away.
A Variety of Psychotherapy Services
This is an outpatient clinic that employs many different types of counseling approaches to get at the root of your addiction. They likely use behavioral techniques that can direct you to healthier ways of coping with stress. That way, clients will be less likely to use drugs.
I like that they also provide drug screenings and polygraph detection. Oftentimes, people end up relapsing. This happens quite often, and quiet enforcement can be useful to make sure you stay on track in your program.
They also address underlying factors that can impact substance abuse. Anger management is a specialized service, and they also help mend family relationships. They’re sensitive to different cultures, and they provide services in Spanish if need be.
Some Logistics
I saw that they offer sliding scales for those who may be underinsured or are short on funds. Reach out to them if you have any questions before starting out.

This is actually closed down. Had 2 places recommend this place and they had no idea that this was gone.
Mr Johnson was extremely helpful during a rough patch in my life. I will return when I need a tuneup to my mental health. I am very thankful to have found such a brilliant professional..
Dr. Michael Johnson collected $2500 for a psychological assessment for a relative and never completed it. Lied about its completion and delivery status. Seems to be a common scam for him. Kept telling my relative it was "almost finished" and told his attorney it had been emailed, but must have been caught in spam filters. He then said it was stored on a flash drive which had become corrupted and the data was unrecoverable. Contacted him requesting a refund, to which he agreed, but lied about actually mailing. Finally picked up a check in person. This seems to be a common scam for his office. Avoid at all costs. Highly unethical practices.

Accepted Insurance
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.
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.
Sliding scale payments are based on a client's income and family size. The goal is to make treatment affordable to everyone. By taking these factors into account, addiction recovery care providers help ensure that your treatment does not become a financial burden to you or your family, eliminating one barrier to care.
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 Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.
Treatments
Mental health rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and more. Mental health professionals at these facilities are trained to understand and treat mental health issues, both in individual and group settings.
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
When you participate in cognitive behavioral therapy in Indiana, you'll learn to recognize distorted thinking that has led to substance use. Your therapist will help you establish new patterns of thinking and healthy ways to cope with challenges that don't involve substance use.
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.
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.
Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.
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.
