About Home on the Range

Located in Sentinel Butte, North Dakota, is the adolescent residential recovery facility, Home on the Range. This organization is state licensed as a qualified residential treatment program and supports boys and girls aged 12 to 17 who are experiencing behavioral health struggles that are negatively impacting their lives. Many of the children here have been the victim of severe trauma which has contributed to their delinquent behaviors.

At the heart of this program is their work therapy treatment approach that helps children develop coping skills so that they can overcome the traumatic instances that have influenced their early years. Within this program, there are also services that address struggles with drug and alcohol use.

Animal Assisted Therapy

There’s a therapeutic animal assistance recovery program that allows children to work through complex emotions, traumatic life experiences and other life struggles in an environment that is safe and supportive. Children have the opportunity to work on a ranch, work one-on-one with animals, and develop a sense of self and motivation to work through the challenges they’re facing.

There is an equine therapy program here that gives children the opportunity to connect with animals in a way that’s calming and peaceful. There’s also a canine program that allows children to continue building relevant skills for recovery. Children learn how to work as part of a team, problem solve and connect with the animals in a way that’s nurturing.

Drug and Alcohol Treatment Services

A component of the program is access to their drug and alcohol treatment services. These services apply both abstinence and non abstinence approaches, allowing children to get addiction education services while encouraging them to make the right choices for their lives. This is a 12 week program, and children will work in a group setting with other peers.

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.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

Outpatient

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

Inpatient rehabs primarily serve clients who have just completed detox, those who are in crisis and at an elevated risk of relapse, and those who have a strong history of relapse. They provide a highly structured and supportive environment and intensive supervision. Residents engage in extensive addiction counseling. Many programs also offer recovery-focused life skills training to support clients' sustained sobriety. Holistic therapies, such as yoga and meditation, are available at many facilities.

24-Hour Clinical Care

24-hour clinical care in North Dakota gives those in recovery immediate, constant access to medical professionals. This can be crucial if patients experience severe withdrawal symptoms during detox. Medical staff are on-site to deliver necessary treatment, which may include life-saving measures for symptoms such as heart palpitations or seizures. Mental health professionals are also available to address co-occurring disorders.

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

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

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.

LGBTQ Program

Recovery is most successful when clients feel accepted and validated by their peers and treatment providers. Facilities that offer LGBTQ-inclusive programming are committed to creating a safe space where everyone can grow and recover without fear of judgment or discrimination. They will have dedicated policies in place to create a safe and supportive environment that fosters free expression.

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 (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.

Equine Therapy

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.

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.

Couples therapy lasts an average of 12 sessions. Most sessions involve both partners; however, therapists may also meet with each partner individually. The focus of couples therapy is to address conflict and improve the way you handle challenges in the relationship.

Eye Movement Desensitization And Reprocessing

Family therapists in North Dakota use therapy sessions to emphasize healing the relationships that were strained by addiction. Your therapist will help each family member understand the role they played in addiction and their responsibilities in recovery. This helps foster a collaborative approach that benefits each loved one and the family unit.

Learning life skills in rehab is crucial to recovery. Addiction interferes with basic life skills, and many who are addicted are at a loss as to how to navigate daily life. Life skills training during rehab reteaches these skills so you can leave treatment with the tools you need to cope with day to day challenges.
