New Beginnings Rehab was a crucible of healing. I arrived broken—grieving, lost, and weighed down by relapse. Through structured therapy and unwavering support, I confronted my pain, unraveled old patterns, and began to rebuild. It wasn’t just recovery—it was resurrection.

I was not ready for what I was walking into, in a good way! The staff is the ABSOLUTE BEST! I felt welcomed, never judged, cared for and about! The staff was AMAZING... (in the order of appearance because I loved them all so much!) Wanda, Darian, Tess, Sadie, Paige, Shante, Frances & Kiki!! LOVE THEM! They made sure I had everything I needed to come down comfortably! The pictures of the rooms, that's what you get! A queen sized bed with a TV in your private room. Beds are comfy and the great lighting for whatever mood you're in! The entire facility is clean, really clean! The staff here really takes pride in what they do! The food, was amazing! They order in Door Dash for lunch and dinner from good places! Plus, they have things to eat in the kitchen as well as coffee, hot tea, Gold Peak teas, Gatorade, and way more! Fruits, toast, bagels! I could go on! I appreciated that they kept everything stocked. While there, they also helped me to line up what my next steps were, provided me resources on places/providers/therapists that were in network for me. I didn't expect that, but really appreciate not having to leave without a plan! Thank you lovely therapist Ali for all your hard work on that! I can't forget Dr. Welcher, she clearly knows what she's doing and how to handle this process! To barely feel any symptoms is unheard of! This is the way to go! No reason to be scared anymore!
One more shout out to the staff! I wouldn't be where I am today without all of them! I've been going through it pretty bad (like most people), but they were so kind, compassionate, attentive and truly have the biggest hearts! They also were fun to be around which made the time there so much easier! Thank you so much!!! I'm gonna send a card when I'm a year clean and enjoying life!
Not sure I need to say this, but I 10/10 recommend this place!

This place is amazing, I’ve been here a total of 6 times and every time I come back I feel better, when I got here I was in a severe state. Alcoholism drugs. And at first I hated this place but every time I came here I felt better and I think it’s safe to say I won’t have to come back after this time. Another thing, the support of loved ones may not always seem right but it may be because we don’t know what’s right. Lucky I was lucky enough to have multiple wonderful women in life but no one stands out as much as my wife. Anyway, getting cured doesn’t happen over night, takes work but most importantly trust in your family. They always got your back.
Hope this help 👍

They also have an acute care mental health unit called Bridge House located on South Santa Fe Drive in Littleton, Colorado. The organization accepts commercial insurance and Medicaid. AllHealth Network is a nonprofit organization treating substance us | Treatments Programs Payment Options | Let's face it, nobody *wants* to be in a Mental Health Facility, but when you need to be in one, I would suggest here ten times out of ten.
I was voluntarily admitted here and was expecting 3-5 days max. Welp, ended up I caught the start of a "breakdown." Not gonna lie, I was horrified when I first came in and the first few days. I became more comfortable, and all of my needs were always met. Sometimes, it took a little bit (when the unit was full or more complex and immediate attention was required for tense situations), but I always felt like I was cared for. Talking with a psychiatrist every day to fine-tune my meds was a lifesaver. The councilors and therapists were phenomenal. The other staff was all great. I can't think of one person who was rude to me or didn't want to help.
The unit is amazingly clean (I came from a very very dirty and rundown MHF that it was borderline scary), and the main janitor actually cleans things and not just "wipe down" and spot clean. The bathrooms stayed clean almost 100% of the time! Much higher than all the fast food places I've had to use the facilities.
I'm sorry I can't name staff... I know a few of them, but I would feel bad mentioning just the few when it was

Thank you all, and I hope this review helps someone decide in their time of need to come here. I'm getting released on my 11th day here and feel good about the extended stay for my well-being.

I voluntarily checked myself in when life became too overwhelming and aside from being cold all the time, they were amazing! The check-in process takes time and is intimidating, but once you are in, the staff is beyond welcoming and they helped make it an easy comfortable transition. I do feel like more transparency would have helped with checking in because after speaking with them via phone when I arrived with personal belongings, some items weren't allowed after all and they said family can bring outside food to you but that wasn't allowed either.
They allow you the free space to do as you please - meaning they don't force you to attend groups, but they have the days scheduled to keep you busy if you want to participate in group or social activities. They encourage you and your needs even if it is just a day of laying in bed or keeping to yourself. Everything is voluntary and the techs there made me feel accepted and more so that my feelings were valid. I felt safe and listened to. I finally felt human again. I was provided with A LOT of helpful information that I was able to take with me that will make coping with life more easy and was given the tools to best help my personal mental/emotional needs. I highly recommend this location for anyone in need - I was not suicidal and did not feel the need to hurt myself or others and they welcomed me with open arms while reassuring me that I was able to leave at any time. They are next to a beautiful green space with a nearby creek and we were allowed outside time which was huge for me. If I ever feel the need to take a timeout from life again, this will always be my first choice to go to for the help I need. They even helped me get appointments scheduled for follow-up after I had left their facility to ensure a smooth transition back into the real world.
They went above and beyond for me when I needed it the most and I can't thank them enough for it.
From what I saw while visiting, people feel negatively about these facilities when they aren't taking ownership of their own care. As the saying goes, you can lead a horse to the water but you can't make it drink. If you need help, tell them what it is you need to succeed - they aren't mind readers and can only help you with what they are made aware of! Even if you need more than they are able to help with, they can at least point you in the right direction.

They offer flexible outpatient addiction therapy allowing patients to live at home while receiving regular treatment. Addition | Treatments Programs Payment Options | 3 years ago I was introduced to 2xtreme as a resource to help my son who, at the time, was self-medicating with anything he could get his hands on. My son was lost and I wanted him back. I was referred to 2xtreme by a vice principal at my son's school. Upon my research, I found that they work with at risk young men and families who are in a crisis. During our first appointment, the approach taken by John Davis of 2xtreme, was extraordinarily different as he was able to pinpoint my sons struggles and name them. Taken back by what we had encountered that day, I knew and my son knew that this was the place for him to find himself and to begin to heal. Over these 3 years, not only was my son cared for, but my family was as well. A relationship that consisted of thoughtfulness, communication, experientials, care, integrity, humility, vulnerability and love is what brought not only my son, but my family closer. My son and I are both stronger mentally, physically and spiritually, and we are still evolving. I owe so much to 2xtreme and John Davis, the words Thank You just don't seem to match what they have done, sacrificially, for me and my family.

The costs of drug and alcohol rehab in Colorado vary widely and depend on several factors, including:
The costs of addiction treatment listed for cities and states are averages based on the cost of the treatment types listed above. These averages are high due to the cost of medical detoxification and residential inpatient rehab programs.
