I am deeply indebted to this wonderful program. The director Garrett is humble, approachable and willing to individualize your care. If you want a mother like therapist who is empathetic and comforting Veronica is a perfect fit. My favorite therapist is Jonathan for PHP. He creates a family like atmosphere, encourages and creates group communication. Jonathan shows he truly cares about each individual in his class and is attentive to our day to day needs. I feel like this program is helping me to change my life and support my desire to become more positive and keep a purposeful attitude. Saige and Georganna are the best cheerleaders and provide so much practical help. Thank you all so much.

My Intake and Start in PHP I am a 74-year-old male. When I was in crisis and at risk of suicide, my wife took me to Haven. After a mental health interview, I was admitted into the Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP). After completing the intake forms, I received a notebook with documents that helped me understand what to expect. I began treatment in the PHP group, and the amount of information I learned was amazing. The therapists were genuinely concerned about the patients and made sure we knew help was available whenever we needed it. The Care and Support I Received Haven offers a wide range of treatment plans and skills-based lessons to help patients deal with different situations. Topics included emotions, coping strategies, anxiety, fear, and understanding how I was feeling. As part of treatment, I also participated in yoga every other week and learned about meditation and calming sounds. I had some very difficult experiences with mental health treatment when I was 14 or 15 years old, and I was afraid I would receive the same kind of treatment again. Haven showed me that psychiatry today is very different from what I experienced when I was younger. Patients are not labeled; they are treated with respect, compassion, and dignity. Haven’s employees want to make sure patients are prepared to deal with their addictions and other issues before they are discharged. Everyone is willing to help, follow through on requests, and check back to make sure things are okay. What I Learned The program works best when you become involved in the group and actively participate in your therapy. Haven teaches the skills, but each person has to choose to use them and take part in the change. I can only say this: Haven saved my life. Remember: You matter. My Therapist, Jonathan My therapist in PHP was Jonathan, and I am moving to IOP this coming week. Jonathan helped our group understand how emotions, feelings, and words can affect the path to better health. He taught us about triggers, calming words, honesty, and taking responsibility for how much we learn from the lessons. Jonathan brings out the best in what I have learned. He is honest and direct, and he challenges people to look closely at their feelings, comfort words, choices, and the way everything fits together. He taught me that one action can lead to many changes. Jonathan is calm and patient. He offers support to anyone who needs it, and it is clear that this work is not just a job for him, it is his passion. He shows that in many ways, including checking in with me and asking how I am doing that day. He encourages honest conversations about feelings, difficult thoughts, and questions about how each person is doing. The group participates in these discussions, and Jonathan helps us understand different feelings and different ways to respond to them. He has also introduced words and tools that can create healthier reactions. Jonathan has made it clear that he is available to talk after group, during breaks, through scheduled times, and through Zoom meetings. He has supported me throughout this journey and is always willing to help when needed. He always asks the group to give him feedback, suggestions on lessons that the group decides it needs to have help with. Jonanthan will do his best to come up with a lessons to address these concerns He is the best therapist I have met. I cannot say enough good things about him or the lessons he presents. .

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.

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 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.

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 programs (IOP) provide robust support for clients who choose to remain in their own homes or who are reintegrating into their community following inpatient care. IOP treatment generally consists of a combination of individual, group, and family counseling, recovery-focused life skills training, and evidence-based holistic therapies. Many intensive outpatient rehabs also offer medication assisted treatment (MAT) for clients in alcohol and/or opioid recovery. Clients in IOP typically receive nine to 20 hours of treatment weekly.

Often known as "day treatment, a partial hospitalization program (PHP) offers short-term, intensive rehab during the day, allowing you to return home in the evening. PHP treatment is often part of a step-down service provided in the treatment of substance use disorders. PHP treatment provides structured programming that includes daily therapeutic services. Typically, PHP treatment sessions are 5 days a week for approximately 6-8 hours, offering intensive treatment during the day, allowing you to return home. The duration of PHP treatment varies based on your needs but averages 90 days.

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.

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.

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

When you participate in cognitive behavioral therapy in New Mexico you can expect to follow a structured four step process. This involves identifying life challenges, identifying inaccurate thinking about those challenges, changing those thought patterns to healthy ones, and changing the resulting behaviors.

Weekly dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) sessions involve one on one meetings with your therapist. Each session lasts about an hour. You'll work on identifying and accepting your emotions while also learning how to manage them. Additionally, weekly 90 minute group DBT sessions give you the opportunity to develop and practice coping skills.

Group therapy sessions in New Mexico are structured and led by professional therapists with experience in leading groups. This ensures that the group discussions are focused and productive and that therapeutic goals are consistently addressed during each session.

Individual therapy offers men and women a customized approach to explore the root causes of their substance use and develop healthy coping mechanisms. This improves the effectiveness of treatment and helps to foster long term sobriety. Sessions usually involve an in depth exploration of your life experiences, including harmful behaviors and thoughts that drive addictive behavior.

Motivational interviewing can help you resolve indecisive feelings and develop the confidence to make changes. It is a short term counseling method that offers empathy and practical support and is often used as part of drug and alcohol rehab in New Mexico.

The focus of trauma therapy is on healing the emotional wounds that happen after a traumatic experience. You may have witnessed the event or experienced it yourself. Your therapist will guide you through confronting those memories, which helps promote emotional regulation, resilience, and mental well being.

If you attend couples therapy in New Mexico, you can expect to work with the therapist and each other to identify emotions, explore your history, and learn new skills to help you better meet relationship challenges. These skills may include problem solving, conflict resolution, and anger management.

Therapists in New Mexico focus on creating a supportive network in family therapy sessions. This helps to support their loved one's recovery journey. By identifying dysfunctional patterns, your therapist can help you develop healthier ways of interacting with each other that significantly improve the overall treatment outcome.

Substance use disorders disrupt thinking and behavior patterns, which interferes with critical life skills. Drug rehab programs in New Mexico include life skills training to allow you to rebuild those skills. You'll relearn how to think, behave, and interact with others in healthy ways so you can successfully navigate daily life.

Garrett, Georgianna, Sage, Johnathan an Adrianna are amazing in the PHP and IOP program they help you in medication adjustment. After getting released from them as well as you get other perks, like yoga, meditation and sound healing. And there's tons of snacks throughout the day during classes. But you're able to meet people relate to them an heal at the same time.

I droped off my partner here. I’m a stable person. He needed help. We have children together I’m the bread winner. I thought he was dead because no one would tell me where he was I called the number back that was left bye Sarah Benavidez. She said he was being discharged. I didn’t receive this call until 4 days of him being gone so I called the police because the previous place said he was discharged. Sarah never answered my call again. The didn’t leave an Address or instructions just simply that he was being discharged the following day. I called the facility to check where it was because Albuquerque is Notorious for having out of date information Posted on Google and businesses. They offered no support. I understand that you have protocol but what about the mental well being of his family. I thought he could be dead for days.
