Drug Rehab Centers in Littleton, Colorado

The staff couldn't have been better. Every Behavioral Health Technician was kind, professional, attentive, and...THEY LISTEN!! THEY TRULY WANT TO HELP! and it shows.I've been out of the facility for almost a year now. I'm doing much, much, better. My life is starting to have meaning again. Rather, it never "lost" meaning; I just couldn't see that.I don't know where I'd be without Highlands. I don't know if I'd be alive. I try not to think about that too much.Thank you all. From the bottom of my heart.

I was in PHP. It's set up as 6 hour a day group therapy 5 days a week for 4 to 6 weeks. I've never participated in any in/out patient mental health treatment before, so I don't have any prior experience to compare my time here to. Given my experience here, I think this program is worth every minute of your time that it demands.I could tell that all the staff care deeply about what they do and try their best to hold space for everyone in the room. There's a wide variety of personalities that you're bound to find someone you connect well with. There's an understanding that everyone is free to take the information we discuss and open up about individual issues at their own pace. There were dificult things I thought that I would rather take to my grave that I was able to open up about, whether they be in group or confided in one on one. They also helped us better understand the therapeutic process and mental health system. I'm grateful I took the chance to come here.The only part I did not like was that virtual and in-person therapy was held in the same room. It's impossible for any therapist, no matter how mindful and talented they may be, to manage both at the same time. It was a disservice to both the people online and the people who came in person to have both held in the same room. This is the only reason I can't give 5 stars.You might feel afraid and at times childish, but the program is well worth your time. Take a leap of faith

I've been through this facility's out patient programs twice. Both for different issues at different times in my life. I can with out a doubt say their teams have saved my life multiple times. I appreciate that they are always available. I recommend Highlands to all my friends and family who also struggle sometimes.

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 wasEverySinglePerson.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.-D

Marcus really makes this place the best mental health facility there is. I specifically request to come here because he's so kind loving and understanding. I just hope they pay him what he deserves because he puts so much effort into caring.

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.
