It’s a walkin clinic that can be a lifeline when you’re struggling with your recovery or mental health and don’t know where to turn.

Accepted Insurance

Jane Westin Center works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient
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.
sober-living iconSober Living Homes
Sober living homes in California offers an intermediate sober environment that has less structure than inpatient rehab but more than typical home environments. This makes it a good option for those who have concerns about transitioning back to the "real world" after treatment. Residents can typically live at the halfway house as long as they want, if they are willing to follow house rules. These may include a curfew, chores, and maintaining a job.

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-program thumbnail image
Adult Program
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-adult-program thumbnail image
Young Adult Program
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

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.

Individual therapy for drug addiction includes a customized treatment plan that considers your history and life circumstances. During your therapy sessions, the therapist helps you uncover underlying issues and triggers for addictive behavior that support a holistic approach to recovery.

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.

Family therapy offers a platform for members to have an open dialogue about the challenges that addiction has placed on the family unit. Through guided sessions, therapists can help families develop healthy communication skills and address unresolved issues. By working together toward a common goal, they help to support their loved one's sobriety.

While in rehab treatment, you may work on developing various life skills to help you in long term recovery. These may include resilience, interpersonal skills, and self awareness. The focus will be on developing healthy habits for self care and relationships so you have the skills you need to manage day to day life.

I suffer from chronic depression and anxiety and was off meds for a little too long and found myself without a provider and couldn't get in anywhere for months. Things were looking bleak and I was referred to Jane Westin to get meds. I showed up in the afternoon and it was a seemingly slow day with only a couple people in the waiting room. I spoke with several different people including nurses, a social worker, and the psychiatrist (via zoom). Everyone was extremely professional and compassionate. I was there for several hours but was able to leave with scripts that day for a couple days and then their pharmacy delivered the remaining 30 days worth. I am so grateful as the meds are helping already and I have been able to get back to life. Thank you for all that you guys do!

I came to this facility because I was experiencing psychosis and my doctor was out of town so my clinic sent me here to get emergency meds. Every staff member I spoke to was extremely friendly, even the security guard who got up and opened the door for me a number of times as I went in and out. Danielle and Kat (spelling?) were so kind and compassionate. I feel really grateful to them especially. Unfortunately the wait time was really long (about 6 hours). I spent the majority of that time in the lobby and the television was constantly triggering my delusions. However, there was a sound machine going and that helped me relax quite a bit. Overall this is a great facility, just a bit understaffed.

The guards were kind and compassionate towards a lady with turrets. What upset me was that I went there with my wife and this female staff made her feel very uncomfortable by hitting on her! I leave to the car for a minute and my wife is urging me to come back because she was uncomfortable. Who does that? So unprofessional, I mean hitting on clients that are there trying to get mental help? So disrespectful!

If I Could I'd give this place a minus 5 stars. I went there in 2015 thinking I would get counseling for basic depression and ended being held on an involuntary 5150!!! There was absolutely nothing wrong with me other than a touch of insomnia from working the graveyard shift and mild depression. After sitting in their waiting room ALL Day Long, waiting to speak to someone and after getting off an all nighter at the job mind you, finally I go to the back and never voluntarily came back out. I was not a threat to myself or anyone else.... The doctor lady asked me to wait in a chair back there behind those locked doors. Next thing I knew the police came back there and handcuffed me. I was scared for my life. My wife waited in the waiting room for my return and they never let me go back out there to talk to her!! They tricked me into a life of failure as I was working as an Armed Security Officer at the time (I was not armed as I had gone home after work and changed my clothes).... They stripped me of my rights, my job and my dignity! It was a set up! Now my wife and I can't even adopt children because of this.... That doctor knew exactly what she was doing ! This incident hurt me more than helped me in so many ways. I did learn a lesson from this and the lesson is "This system can take away our freedom at any given moment and there is nothing that we can do about it!"

I updated street address to current location (using Suggest Edit option for Place, Place Moved option). Better, but there are still 2 Place items for 1 same real place/name/organization. The other Place item is more complete & correct. I left this Place with the older name, Jane Westin Wellness & Recovery Center, to help distinguish. Current real organization name is Jane Westin Center. They moved (a long time ago). Recommend refer instead to Google Maps/Place - Jane Westin Center @ 1045 9th Ave, San Diego, CA 92101. (9th Ave. & Broadway St.) (I have been to both previous & current locations.) Recommend Google should consider simplifying to 1 Place item. Combine/merge/move some of this Place listing's valid content (reviews) (that may still apply to the business), to the other current Place? Then delete this Place or else mark as closed permanently (however, this business is still open at this location. Marking 1 Place closed might confuse users to think the business is closed permanently, rather than just this Place iten. Google, what do you recommend as best way to update this in Maps? Google contact me of you want more info or help.) What do we do when there are multiple Place items for same real name/place/organization, but the Places are not exact duplicates in content? Differences in content, like reviews or photos split over the Places? Is there a way to merge or move selective content over?
