About Community Bridges

All incoming clients will receive a drug test and a psychiatric evaluation. If there are drugs in your system, you can detox at this facility. You will be assigned a case manager when you come in who will follow you every step of the way.

They have a medically trained staff that will monitor you constantly throughout your withdrawal. They have extensive training in each type of addictive drug. They will be able to provide you with medically assisted treatment if your discomfort from detox is too great.

Impatient services are gender specific here. People in recovery often feel safer and more comfortable in a single-sex environment. They work with many justice system organizations. Many of the clients are there because of drug related convictions.

You will receive both group and individual therapy. The individual sessions you have will be custom to your needs based on your intake information.

Drug rehab always relies heavily on peer support. You will have multiple group therapy sessions per day. Before you leave treatment, you will be referred to local 12-step meetings where you can find a sponsor.

Most psychotherapists who treat substance use disorder will use cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in private sessions with clients. This is a type of therapy that teaches you to think differently in order to stop destructive behaviors. They may also use motivational interviewing In which a therapist will ask you questions designed to help you find your own motivation to stop taking substances.

Horrible conditions. The facility is extremely dirty, overcrowded, and completely disorganized. There was no soap in the bathrooms, and there’s no separation between men and women, which makes the environment uncomfortable and unsafe. Many of the patients were acting inappropriately, smelled bad, and appeared to be under the influence of drugs. This place is disturbing on every level, and I would never recommend it to anyone. This establishment is more hurtful than helpful in every way.

CBI, Mesa, AZ, has some gall calling itself a hospital, No hospital would ever allow for remains of a woman who grew up her food to remain uncleaned up for many hours after the incident itself (in very small day room area). Gross violations of well established care care standards, and the typical line up of mid level managerial staff who know not one thing about the rights of Americans affected and disabled by serious mental illness. The worst managed in-patient psych care facility this writer has ever spent time in, including state managed mental hospitals. And, as per this writer's 2102-2015 exposure of the Arizona State Hospital, this writer will equally expose this facially in the same precise manner.

Accepted Insurance

Please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Community Bridges works with several private insurance providers, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Other Forms of Payment

Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.

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.

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.

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.

Inpatient rehab is designed primarily for persons in early recovery and those who are exiting detox programs. It's ideal for clients in crisis or at an elevated risk of relapse. Inpatient treatment centers provide housing and meals, allowing clients to focus on their recovery away from distractions and addiction triggers. Clients engage in intensive psychotherapy, and many inpatient programs feature recovery-focused life skills training and/or complementary therapies like meditation, creative arts therapy, and other holistic treatments.

If you're struggling with adjusting to daily life after inpatient rehab, a sober living home in Arizona may be a good option. These residences offer an in-between option where you can practice the skills you learned in rehab in a structured, drug-free environment. This transition can help you prepare to face the "real world" after treatment. You'll live with others in recovery and follow house rules such as contributing to chores and paying rent.

The initial phase of recovery treatment typically includes 24-hour clinical care in Arizona. This constant supervision ensures a safe detox process, which helps the individual physically stabilize from substance use. Patients will receive medications to curb withdrawal symptoms and cravings, as well as other necessary medical treatment. This period typically lasts up to a week, then the individual will receive medical clearance to begin inpatient or outpatient rehab.

The safest way to remove addictive substances from your body is done under the care of licensed medical professionals. Known as medically assisted detox, this level of care is typically in an inpatient setting with a team of medical experts that may include doctors, nurses, and mental health clinicians. Medications like Suboxone, methadone, or Vivitrol may be administered to help alleviate withdrawal symptoms.

Treatments

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

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.

Dialectical behavior therapy in Arizona focuses on acceptance of your reality and behaviors while also attempting to make changes in unhealthy behaviors. It has been shown to be effective for the treatment of anxiety, depression, PTSD, and substance use disorder.

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.

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.

I entered this facility on petition and it was hell. What helped me cope and ultimately get to a better place mentally and not dependent on some heavy medications? The staff. I hope I can remember them all by name. Shannon, Grace, Jean Paul (Jay), Robert 1 (sandlot) and Robert 2 (may 12, fellow Taurus), Morgan, Rick, Steve, Mark, Larry, James and so many more during 72 hours so I can only remember some names but absolutely every face. The many incredible fellow patients I connected with. My nurses🙏🏻 Tamani(I think she is of divinity and is/will be a Queen on High), Bridget(sp?)fought for me like family, Messi so kind and competent and handsome. Handsome isn’t relevant but couldn’t go without saying). The nature of a place like this is not immediately obvious. It’s loud, vitriolic, overwhelming, overstimulating, exhausting etc. So the fact that these wonderful people and their beautiful souls made me feel safe despite it all? That’s God. I love you all, who I consider are called to do this work. With all the gratitude in my heart and clarity of mind and spirit, Thank you, thank you and thank you.❤️
