St Christopher was a wonderful experience for me to get sober, learn about Alcoholics Anonymous, and learn about the disease and about myself. The staff from the front office down were fantastic, before, during, and after treatment. I would recommend this place to anyone

I have been a professional interventionist since 2010. I was introduced to this program in 2012. I have been referring there since then. My clients have always had a positive experience and the clinical and support staff are the most responsive and knowledgeable. They want what’s best for the client and the family and have long term options. They do very well young adult males and most recently I referred a 69 year old man first time treatment. It was a family member and he’s doing very well and committed to 90 days of treatment. I can’t thank the clinical staff and administrators enough for the program they have created. Please contact me if you would like to know more. Thank you STC!!!

Going to Rise was the best decision of my life. Allison was a godsend to me at a dark point in my life and was able to get me into Rise’s treatment program with short notice. The team there is unparalleled. I wish I could name everyone that were members of my treatment team at Rise, but a few shoutouts to Nam for driving my sad sack self to Rise, baking amazing bread, and being an amazing support from Day 1, Shari & Zach from nursing for the care, fun, pep talks, and compassion, Dr Mark for his wisdom and pragmatic approach that I really resonated with, and numerous others (the chefs are next-level good, Tessa, Luke, Saber, Destiny, Cesar, Cat, Michael, Terry, Adrian, etc).
Outside of the fantastic staff, I’ll add that the house is gorgeous, the groups are varied and enriching, there’s a good balance between free time & groups, the rooms are comfortable and spacious, and they do a great job of ensuring that you have access to outside appointments - for example, I was able to go to Passover services while at Rise without having to go through a lot of hoops/bureaucracy.
The amenities are fun and obviously appreciated, but the heart of this place is really why I would recommend it to a loved one or friend in a heartbeat.
Thank you so much, Rise team!!!

I didn’t walk in expecting much, but this place really surprised me. Detox was handled professionally and the staff genuinely cared. Residential was structured and real—not just talk. I learned a lot and I’m leaving in a much better place.

Rise really means a lot to me. I’ve been to the Malibu location twice, and both times the team made me feel genuinely cared for, supported, and understood during some of the hardest times in my life. Dr. Mark was awesome to work with, and I also want to thank Ron, Sherry, Nam, Tessa, Zack, and Ryan. You all made a bigger impact on me than you probably know. What makes Rise special is that it never just felt like treatment to me — it felt like family. I’ll always have love for the Malibu team and a lot of gratitude for everything they’ve done for me. Also give my compliments to the chefs

As a clinical social worker running a local group practice, I regularly collaborate and refer clients to Mountainside Treatment Center. Their staff has always been exceptional, especially Courtney Hulse and Dan Sexton, who go above and beyond in tailoring their treatment plans for each client and family. Mountainside serves as a tremendous resource, providing quality substance abuse treatment that is critically needed here on Long Island. We are enthusiastic about continuing to work with Mountainside to best serve our community and families. Thank you for all you do Mountainside. Highly recommend!

My experience with Mountainside has been nothing but positive. Jessica Leone has been key in my recovery. She consistently has a positive attitude, provides great insights and experiences. Jessica listens well and challenges me. She is open whenever needed and feels like one of my biggest supporters. I appreciate all that she does.

What can I say? My stay at Gratitude Lodge was beyond my expectations. This was my first exposure to treatment so I was nervous; nonetheless, I was treated with the utmost respect and compassion. ❤️
From the start, the house was definitely a second home for me having traveled from the Midwest. I was warmly received on the first night and settled in comfortably.
So many staff members impacted my experience...from the start, Ryan, meeting my at the airport and providing sound advice for tlnext steps in my recovery, Peter for his fantastic music therapy sessions, James for his sincere commitment to my casework, Mario always for his listening skills, Trinity, Justin, Andrew...and everyone beyond.

Best experience of my sober life. I want to personally thank, Trinity, Justin, Mario, Ryan, Eli, Megan, Andrew, Lee, Kyle, James and Peter for everything and that they do. The best staff at any program I’ve ever been to (and I’ve been to a bit over my fair share). They actually care, they love you and they truly want to see you succeed. A special shout out to James, for always and I mean ALWAYS being in my corner. A shoutout to Trinity for being my confidant when I felt alone in the beginning. To Peter, who listened to all my bullshit with a smile on his face and some music in the background. The best place to get sober and the best people to ever be around. Truly a sober environment, where you learn how to be sober. Not just get sober but BE sober. I’ll forever remember my time here with love, respect and of course plenty of GRATITUDE!!!!!!!

I had such a great experience here. I've been to alot of rehabs and I cant say the same for most of those. I didn't know if I wanted to come in or even be sober and James and Megan stayed out front with me for a long while, patiently helping me to make the right decision to come in and I am so glad I did. They have such a great team of people and I couldn't thank you guys enough. Shout out to James for always staying late and convincing me to not AMA lol i even decides to stay longer, you can tell he really pours his heart into his job and wants to help. Same goes for Megan and Ryan you guys are really the best.

The Haven was a great facility for detox and the residential portion of my rehab process. The entire staff was extremely kind. The nursing staff was very thorough. The techs were so cool and caring. The administration team was extremely helpful seeing me through the process. And in my opinion,, the food was great which is always a bonus. I would recommend the Haven to a friend in need with no hesitation.

I was so scared asking for help and didn’t know where to go, but this place came highly recommended. The only bad thing is that the fact that I had to leave anybody looking to get help there is not a better place to go in here. the staff is absolutely incredible. I cried more just seeing how well I was treated here than even dealing with my issues. I cannot recommend this place enough if you want help come here.

The staff and provider here made my stay bearable and successful. Dr. Sierzenski, Samantha BHT, Derrick RN, Stephanie RN, Veronica BHT, Ingrid RN, Gabby BHT, Tanisha RN, and all of them! They were attentive, compassionate, helpful, professional, but most of all... they were kind to me when I was in a very dark place and a world of hurt. I did not ask for this to happen, but I am eternally grateful for the safety net Gallus provided me. I am 30 days sober because of you. And me. And the universe. Please keep saving souls, one person at a time. We need all the help we can get. Never, lose sight of why you signed up for this job! You all can mark one more life saved today. Thank you.

When my younger brother finally decided to seek help for his alcohol addiction, I spent countless hours researching treatment programs. From the moment I came across the website for Tree House Recovery PDX, I knew this was something special. A truly unique program that stood out from every other rehab facility I had seen.
Tree House’s focus on building a brotherhood grounded in mutual respect, compassion, and empowerment immediately resonated with me. My brother had spent years feeling isolated and disconnected, and I knew this kind of community could give him the sense of belonging he’d been missing.
The combination of strength training and mindfulness yoga was unlike anything I had come across before. Replacing harmful habits with physical strength and mental resilience was exactly what my brother, once an athletic, active teenager, needed to reconnect with a version of himself that existed before alcohol took hold.
The program’s one-on-one, group, and writing therapy, combined with the educational classes on the mechanisms of addiction, make it one of the most well-rounded and thoughtful approaches to recovery I have ever seen. In just three months, the transformation in my brother has been remarkable, not only in his body but in his voice, his confidence, and his spirit.
Tree House has given him tools to cope with disappointment and setbacks, develop healthier reasoning skills, and rediscover the strength that comes from brotherhood, from leaning on and lifting up others walking the same path. He’s learned how to have fun without substances and surround himself with people who genuinely care about his well-being.
Initially, I worried Tree House might not be an option for us financially. But then I saw the words at the bottom of their website:
“We strive to make sure that Tree House is an option for everyone.”
It felt like they were speaking directly to me.
When I reached out, Matt was incredible. He listened with genuine compassion, spoke with both my brother and me, and over the next week and a half worked tirelessly with the team, including the program director and finance department, to make sure my brother could be admitted. He arranged detox admission, transportation, and housing. Thanks to Matt, Brandon, Emma, Esther, and Rob, my brother was given a real shot at recovery.
Tree House Recovery PDX hasn’t just helped my brother get sober, it has transformed his outlook on life. He’s now enrolled in school, exploring meaningful work, and, most importantly, has hope again.
Our family will forever be grateful to the entire Tree House team for their compassion, creativity, and unwavering belief in the potential for change.

Our lives we had built over almost 40 years together were failing. We were scared, we were desolate and drowning, our family was tapped out, ashamed of our choices and finally desperately seeking help from anyone that would listen. No one was listening. We had waited too long thinking it was no problem, not really, we weren’t like “those people”, we knew that we could quit, he hadn’t relapsed he had had surgery and a month long hospital stay, we would easily just get a job, move in with family till we were on our feet, we’d done it many times before, he had been sober 17 out of 25 years, snap no worries….. we were so wrong about it ALL. Weeks later and my husband had been in detox for around 10 days in Eugene, the farthest place away my boys could find that would take and keep him, I had been making as usual, call after call, text chat after text chat, day after day, page after page, talking to each rehab, each place that said no, sent by them always to try another few and when they said no the search online would lead me to more. All of them said no for whatever reason, mostly full beds and even if there were available beds, they wouldn’t take our insurance since the Covid exceptions are all expiring. Or they would take our insurance but only for detox which he is already in. The luxury, lol, rehabs all offered self pay ofcourse, thousands upon thousands and we had no money. I had almost given up any hopes we once shared and I got a text back from someone. Not wanting to hear no again after pouring out our story through tears, I was frustrated and angry and I got to the point, “do you take our insurance or not?” No answer but they said I’d be chat contacted soon. Sure. Sure. Then I was, his name was Matt from Tree House Recovery, and he listened. I couldn’t believe he listened. My husband is 60, he is lost. I am lost. Matt gave me hope. Tree Houses Website and videos and links to YouTube gave me hope. Matt asked me if My husband was tired of self medicating and being in life long pain, were our lives unmanageable, were we on the bottom. We were way past that and we were going to die. He still was listening. We have nothing but we will give anything just to have a chance. Matt fought for us, fought for that chance, and through the Grace of God and everyone involved at Tree House, his chance at a NEW LIFE, his DAY ONE there, is this week. I promised to get my husband to the door, any door that said yes, he had to walk through it….. thanks to Matt listening and truly caring he is, and he will learn, and grow and rebuild his mind, body and spirit one minute, one hour, one day at a time. Our family is grateful and humbled and blessed. Thankyou isn’t enough.

This place goes above and beyond for its clients. Let’s just say I’ve been there more than once on my road to recovery. The staff have become my second family. They have an alumni person that’s reaches out to clients to follow up after treatment and I call her my guardian angel. This place saved my life more than once and I believe it could do the same for you or your loved one. Highly recommend!

This was my first time ever at a detox and what I could actually say is that this is the best detox. I’ve experienced lots of amazing food and the staff is great TJ Kathy Jen and Jonathan were my favorite out of the whole crew not saying that the rest of them weren’t respectful, but they were always accommodating me on my needs and checking up on me and making sure that I felt comfortable, especially with it being my first time ever at a detox treatment I definitely recommend this spot to people who are trying to get off drugs. I have lots of freedom. I’m able to have my tablet. They have amazing food. They’re super nice. They also give the shakes because I’m skinny. And it’s very well needed because I needed to gain weight and honestly, I’ve been here for four days and I’ve already gained 8 pounds

Yo this place has helped me tremendously when I was down and out. I successfully completed my detox and they assisted me into another facility for more treatment and made me feel as if I was taken care of and they would continue to support me although I'm leaving. I definitely recommend and will come back here specifically if I ever do need some more assistance with my substance treatments. #ughhh #hofrome #illughhhminati #igot

2 years later and I definitely got my moneys worth. Treatment is the easy/fun part... the hard part is following up on what they teach you here, when you leave.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Beacon Health Options Cover Drug and Alcohol Rehab?
Beacon Health/Carelon provides behavioral health benefits which include addiction treatment and mental healthcare. However Beacon/Carelon doesn’t decide the actual cover levels — the insurance plans do. So it’s important to understand the details of your insurance coverage even if you see Beacon/Carelon as your behavioral health provider.
All health insurance plans focus on covering medically necessary care so you’ll want to start by working with your doctor to create a treatment plan for your substance use recovery. This will help you focus on what specific types of care you need and will be used by insurance to prove medical necessity.
What Specialty Services Does Beacon Health Options Offer?
Beacon Health/Carelon offers several specialty services, including programs for substance use disorders and serious mental illness.
Its addiction programs include Changing Pathways which provides medically assisted treatment for opioid use disorder and Resilience through Information Support and Education (RISE) which is a case management intervention program.
Another specialty service Beacon Health/Carelon provides is for autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and includes medication management, peer specialists, proactive crisis planning, and care coordination.
They also have care for eating disorders and peer support programs to help you get through challenges by relying on the wisdom of those who have been where you are.
What Inpatient Addiction Treatment Does Beacon Health Options Cover?
Beacon Health/Carelon can connect you with inpatient addiction treatment programs through various insurance companies. However, Beacon Health/Carelon doesn’t control the coverage levels or requirements of your plan so be sure to review your plan before you start rehab.
While most plans cover medically necessary inpatient care, coverage levels will vary. You’ll want to work with your doctor to get a treatment plan that will show what’s medically necessary in your case. Your doctor may do an ASAM assessment to determine the level of care you need.
The most common inpatient care includes medical detox and inpatient or residential care. Medical detox provides medical oversight to help you manage withdrawal symptoms during detox. Residential care allows you to focus on recovery without distractions.
What Outpatient Rehab Does Beacon Health Options Cover?
Several different treatment options for outpatient rehab are available through Beacon Health/Carelon. Outpatient rehab may involve individual, group, or family therapy sessions, either in person or virtual.
Partial hospitalization programs (PHP) offer the most intensive outpatient rehab and usually require you to spend several hours a day in a treatment center five to seven days a week. Intensive outpatient programs (IOP) involve therapy sessions for nine to 19 hours per week. As you proceed along the path to recovery, you’ll transition to general outpatient treatment, attending counseling sessions once or twice a week.
Make sure you understand your insurance coverage and any referrals or preauthorizations you need before you begin treatment.
Does Beacon Health Options Cover Methadone & Suboxone (MAT)?
Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) combines counseling with medications like methadone and Suboxone to treat opioid and alcohol addiction. MAT can be used during medical detox to manage withdrawal symptoms and during longer-term treatment to help you stay stable during rehab.
Changing Pathways is Beacon Health/Carelon’s MAT program for treating opioid addiction. It uses medication along with peer support, education, and quality management assistance.
Does Beacon Health Options Cover Other Mental Healthcare?
Many insurance plans cover mental health as required by ACA but it’s still important to check your plan for specific coverage. Beacon Health/Carelon helps health insurance plans offer options for treating addiction and other mental health issues but it doesn’t determine coverage limits.
Mental health coverage allows you to get counseling for mental health disorders like anxiety and depression along with bipolar disorder and other diagnoses.
Underlying mental health concerns often accompany substance use disorders, so it’s important to address these co-occurring disorders along with addiction for you to be successful in your long term recovery.
How Long Will Beacon Health Options Cover Rehab?
Your specific insurance plan determines the length of rehab treatment, not Beacon Health/Carelon. Addiction treatment can be a long process and it’s essential to embrace the process and complete all the steps along the way. The length of your rehab depends on your individual needs.
Inpatient or residential treatment can range from one to three months. Outpatient programs are about 10 to 12 weeks but can be shorter or longer, depending on your needs.
Does Addiction Treatment Need to Be In Network?
Many insurance plans require you to use in-network providers to get coverage. If out-of-network providers are covered, you will pay a much higher cost in deductibles and copayments.
To get the most out of your insurance coverage for addiction treatment, it’s best to stay in-network if possible. Review your insurance plan to determine your exact coverage before using a non-network provider.
How to Verify Coverage With Beacon Health Options
You can verify your coverage by contacting your insurance company through its customer service phone number or online. When it comes to your mental health and drug rehab coverage, your insurance may have the information available or may direct you to call Beacon/Carelon.
If you have a specific treatment center in mind, you can ask representatives at the center if they accept your particular insurance plan. Insurance plans vary on the services they will cover so when asking a treatment center what insurance they accept make sure you use the exact plan name — not just the insurance company name or Beacon Health/Carelon.
Calls to any general helpline will be answered or returned by a paid advertiser.
By calling the helpline you agree to the terms of use. We do not receive any commission or fee that is dependent upon which treatment provider a caller chooses. There is no obligation to enter treatment.
