The staff is too rude, the service is terrible, and the treatments are more dated than the grandmother's home remedies.

Latest Reviews
My father, Marcel Pittman, passed away at Bryce Hospital on June 4th.
I am 19 years old and hadn’t seen my dad in 16 years. The next and final time I’ll ever see him will be in a casket. No one deserves that and neither do I.
The staff at this facility were rude, dismissive, and emotionally abusive. They treated patients with no dignity. They claimed they found my father face down in a hallway, but nothing about that makes sense he was a healthy man no issues with his body what do ever had just talked to him the day before . He should still be here.
His social worker was unprofessional, never answered calls or emails, and failed to keep our family informed. The system failed him. Bryce Hospital needs to be investigated.
💗 Please — don’t send your loved ones here. Nobody deserves to be treated like this.
Rest In Heaven, Daddy. Marcel Pittman — your life mattered.
You deserved more.
I heard a lot of horror stories and when I found out my son was being transferred there a lot of folks had negative things to say that placed a lot of fear in me !! I just want to say and clear the air. Today I visited the hospital and seen first hand how well taken care of my son actually is and my visit today gave me the reassurance I needed ! The staff there was really helpful and pleasant they showed cared and compassion that is so hard to find now days ! When I went for my first visit with him today I was not sure how things worked so I came to the main entrance of hospital like I was instructed by my son to do ! Once there the second shift ladies who worked the front desk were very friendly and helpful walking me through visitation step by step ! I was nervous and had not seen my son in over year so a lot of anxiety coming in to visit for first time in such a long time ! The officer whitehead and the front desk ladies that were there to assist me was very understanding ,as well as patient with me ! This brought me a lot of comfort and relief in my option they are the type of individuals anyone would want to be taking care of a loved one ! Friendly and helpful and they made my visit the best possible for me and my son ! So if u have a loved one going for care or treatment at this hospital don’t believe the bad reviews or be so quick to judge go see for urself I am sure u will be amazed at what u find ! Like me u will see that they have great staff and this is a good hospital with great care for patients! Good job guys keep up the good work and thank u so much for ur service !
I went to Bryce in 2002-2004 I hated the place when I was there I was sent there for extreme PTSD. However I had went to 30+ places similar this was the final place the staff was great and they helped me overcome a psychotic breakdown. In one of the reviews some one said they were the youngest there is a minor ward I was only 14 but I wasn't the youngest. Everyone hates places like this however I would have never came back to reality without them. I don't know if they read these reviews and the staff is probably all gone but thank you for everyone who works there y'all are heros.

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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) is a way of getting nicotine into the bloodstream without smoking. It uses products that supply low doses of nicotine to help people stop smoking. The goal of therapy is to cut down on cravings for nicotine and ease the symptoms of nicotine withdrawal.
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.
