About Denver Springs

Denver Springs is a treatment center located in Englewood, Florida. At this facility, they specialize in helping children, adolescents and adults who are struggling with substance abuse and dual diagnosis disorders. The levels of care available here are detox, inpatient, partial hospitalization and outpatient treatment. They accept Medicare and Medicaid, and offer flexible payment options so you can get the help you need. This facility has a Help for Heroes program, and individualized treatment planning. They also offer the option of traditional intensive outpatient and outpatient telehealth.

When seeking services at Denver Springs, you have the option to call ahead of time to complete an assessment and they accept walk-ins. During the assessment, you will work with a social worker to have a better understanding of where you are and what you are looking for in regards to the help you need. They’ll help you connect to the level of care that will be most beneficial for you.

This facility offers a Help for Heroes program designed specifically for military personnel, healthcare workers, veterans and first responders. This program helps combat addiction and mental health disorders by providing a safe environment for you to get the help you need. They will also help with medication management and issues like PTSD. They offer both individual and group therapy so you can get the support, accountability, and help you need. They’ll also show you how to incorporate holistic therapeutic approaches to deal with day to day life.

Their outpatient services offer a little more flexibility than their PHP or inpatient programs. More often than not, once you complete treatment and begin to adjust to everyday life while maintaining commitments and responsibilities, finding time for inner healing can be a challenge. Their telehealth outpatient program helps you still get the care you need from the privacy of your own home while still maintaining your weekly schedule.

I only give it one star because of horrendous food being served. Not only is it of extremely low quality, it has no nutritional value and the portions are tiny. It literally would not qualify as prison or POW food. Yesterday we got a hard boiled egg and a pancake for breakfast. It unfortunate and really inexcusable. The entire staff agrees and is aware, but has no power to change it. You live on snacks from the refrigerator. It completely detracts from the good being done by the staff.The facility is clean and fairly new, and the staff is EXCELLENT!! They try hard and do what they can for you. It could be a reallytop level treatment center if they fixed the horrendous food. I d give it 5 stars on the treatment level. Thanks to all of the outstanding staff!!UPDATE: As you can see from the reply from the hospital, the food was not addressed. The food service is outsourced to a company that clearly intends to provide the cheapest food possible, and profit as much as possible at the expense of the patient experience. This is outrageous for a hospital. The hospital is owned and run by a company in Tennessee. THIS IS A FOR PROFIT treatment center. That s fine, but food service should not be viewed as a profit center.

This location is not favorable. The receptionist was preoccupied with crocheting and failed to provide a clear answer; she was quite impolite and condescending. I wouldn't suggest coming here.

Accepted Insurance

Denver Springs 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.

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.

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.

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 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.
inpatient iconInpatient
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.
intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient
Clients receiving care in an intensive outpatient program (IOP) engage in a minimum of nine hours of treatment per week on average. However, many intensive outpatient rehabs offer up to 20 therapeutic hours weekly. IOP services are ideal for those in early recovery or who are at an elevated risk of relapse. IOP may be chosen in lieu of inpatient rehab. Treatment modalities typically include psychotherapy, life skills training, medication assisted treatment (MAT), and holistic care.
partial-hospitalization iconPartial Hospitalization Program
A partial hospitalization program (PHP) is a short-term form of intensive rehab, usually for those with acute symptoms that are hard to manage but don’t require 24-hour care. PHPs have structured programming (i.e. individual and/or group therapy), and usually meet 3-5 days a week for around 6 hours (i.e. 9am-3m). Some PHPs are residential (patients sleep on site) and some are not, so patients sleep at home. PHPs can last from 1-6 months, and some offer transportation and meals.
medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox
Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal. The length of stay at the detoxification program is determined according to the specific needs of the patient.

Treatments

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

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.
military-program thumbnail image
Military Program
Serving in the military is both mentally and physically challenging, and can result in trauma that persists even after combat ends. Military programs are tailored to the specific and often complex needs of active duty personnel, veterans, and military families. Clients often access these programs through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).

Clinical Services

The main principle of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in Colorado is that substance use disorders are based on faulty thinking and behavior patterns. The goal of this treatment is to help the individual learn better ways of coping with challenges, which will lead to changes in thinking and behavior.

Dialectical behavior therapy is skills based and present oriented. You'll be asked to keep a diary of emotions and related behaviors and practice the skills you've been learning between sessions. The focus of skills development is on mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness.

Group therapy in Colorado offers you a platform to share your stories about drug addiction and co occurring mental health conditions. You'll receive encouragement and empathy from peers who understand your journey, fostering a sense of community and belonging.

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.

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.

Based on the couple's needs, couples therapy may take different forms. Your therapist will probably take an integrated approach, using techniques from several methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy and psychodynamic couple's therapy. The goal is to work through challenges and strengthen your relationship.

During family therapy sessions, family members in Colorado work with therapists to understand addiction as a disease that has affected the entire family. This approach fosters empathy and reduces blame on any one member. Promoting this collective effort helps to support the recovery process.

Addiction therapy uses recreation to provide structured activities that replace substance use with positive experiences. For example, swimming, cooking classes, and hiking trips encourage social interaction and improve physical health and emotional stability. This helps you rebuild your life without relying on drugs or alcohol.

Creative arts therapy can take place in individual or group sessions. It may include reading poetry, journaling, making videos, or scrapbooking. These expressive activities allow participants to tap into emotions and process challenges in ways other than talking about their problems.

Participating in experiential therapy in Colorado brings awareness to the emotions and thoughts that affect your behavior. As you engage in an interactive or creative activity, your therapist will help you reflect on and analyze these patterns and develop healthy coping strategies to use in the future.

Nicotine replacement therapy treats your physical symptoms of withdrawal so you can better focus on breaking down any mental or emotional addiction you have to smoking. Options include nicotine patches, gum, and lozenges, as well as prescription inhalers and sprays.

WORST and most DANGEROUS detox I have ever witnessed. My loved one was more drugged up than he was when we took him there in fact they OVERDOSED HIM on their DOC Adovan!! All staff is quitting so they are highly understaffed, you cant get through to the correct wing because their phone system in broken. Zero assessments, classes, help or treatment. Just zombies that are in the highest danger of relapse the moment they leave as they never get drugs out of their system. Warning to never leave anyone with these people. They should be shut down!

Took my son there for alcohol evaluation. They stated a 5 day hold was $6k. He was put in a suicidal ward with people who were at risk, never saw a therapist or given any medication, was frequently asked why was he even there, and After 3 days they released him, with no discharge information. Just received a bill for $11,683.00. Received a call from a staff member who reported to me this was a known problem they were working on and he would look into and call me. He never called me back. Guessing when they want their money they will call. Never take any loved one there. They need to b shut down and turned in for incompetence.

I wish there was a way to leave zero stars. This facility actively harmed my sister by neglecting her for a week, pumping her full of drugs and then discharging her without a care plan.

Would give 0 stars if I could. Don't tell someone to show up at a certain time and then make them wait 4 hours. Also, if someone shows up voluntarily, they should be allowed to leave if it is taking too long to be seen. Utter garbage. Also, they site there's "a statute" that requires the patient to stay until the provider allows them to be released, but can't tell you what that statute is. Don't come here misinformed or unprepared. Im sure the care is great once it's actually started, but if you lose trust before care is even started....

Can someone please provide me an email address so that I may document my questions and concerns about a loved one? No one via phone has been helpful or willing to do so. Also, I was told by a "supervisor" she would put me in touch with a patient advocate, but then she hung up without doing so. Thank you SO much for all that you do!

Kept me in the waiting section from 9pm-4am under the excuse of being understaffed. Didn’t eat, or have any form of help while unstable. I was legit left alone in that hallway for hours. The patients constantly provoked each other intentionally, and nothing was done about it. A staff member yelled, seriously yelled, at a patient bad enough to make me have a panic attack. Never go here, I heard UC health is much better.

Not good. There is no communication, no therapy, there is no plan. This is glorified lock up with an expensive price tag. Go to a hospital if you need immediate help.

Disappointed when they turned me down when I needed help the most they sent me to a different hospital in Parker that just locked me inside an empty room and staff treated me like I was less than a dog… the providers made an assumption and refused to help me now I’m still struggling with same symptoms and I feel like there is no hope anymore.. I’m really going to make sure people know about this

I had a visit back in October for a week, they were very short staffed and doing their best at the time. After I was released my psychiatrist never filled out my paperwork I needed to be excused from my time off work, and he never emailed me back at all after I requested that. I was never set up with a long term therapist or psychiatrist. I only had maybe 30 min total of "therapy" during my entire stay. It didn't really feel like they were setting patients up for long term success on their mental health journeys. Now I am attempting to donate plasma because I am in critical need of the money, and I need more paperwork filled out from a psychiatrist at the facility. I went in person to drop off the paperwork, the woman at the counter took my information and the paperwork and said they would email it back. It has been days now and I haven't heard anything. It feels very unprofessional and I am now worried I won't be able to donate plasma because I am not able to receive what I need from this facility as a patient. I left a voicemail with no reply and when I tried to email it said I could not send it because I am not on their email list, despite the fact that this email is publicly listed on their website. I feel hopeless because this facility that should be helping people get back on their feet has become a road block in my life and my efforts to create a better future for myself 4-11-25 An employee did finally reach back out and the entire discussion felt very hostile and unprofessional. I've worked in customer service for a long time and I understand the frustrations that come with that, but there is absolutely no reason to respond in such a rude way. They also made it seem as if they had no way to reach out to me because they didn't have my phone number. Despite the fact that I left my email and they could have very easily emailed me to communicate about this issue. It feels like the only reason I was even called back is because of this review. This whole experience has left such a nasty taste in my mouth. I do believe some of the employees here genuinely care about the clients, but do yourself a favor and do not seek business with this facility.
