The hospital is on the Van Wyck Expressway in Richmond Hill, New York in Queens. They accept insurance from many major providers as well as Medicare and Medicaid.

The Advanced Center for Psychotherapy in Richmond Hill

Only 14 miles from Manhattan in New York City, Jamaica Hospital offers comprehensive counseling services through the Advanced Center for Psychotherapy (ACP). The therapists at the center are board certified or board eligible.

The ACP is affiliated with the New York State Board of Regents which charters the ACP. The staff includes social workers, psychologists, and psychiatrists. Therapists at the center provide individual and group psychotherapy. Additionally, they provide medications and medication monitoring and management for mental health medications.

Beyond counseling, staff at the ACP has group programs to improve your parenting and socialization skills. Additionally, they have groups for smoking cessation. If you’ve experienced serious trauma or grief from loss, you’ll be able to get the help you need to begin your recovery.

Multilingual Mental Health Services

The hospital has extensive language assistance services, including assistance for people who are hard of hearing, deaf, visually impaired, and blind. They have assistance for clients in multiple languages too including Spanish, Chinese, Haitian, Korean, Polish, Punjabi, and more.

One of the more unique programs is the Russian Family Program. The program is run from the Forest Hills location and offers comprehensive services for clients who speak Russian.

Connecting With Substance Use Disorder Services in Queens, New York

The staff at the ACP counsels clients in recovery from substance use who desire sobriety, better relationships, and to get their careers back on track. However, for more intensive SUD services, you can get a referral to one of two convenient locations, one in Forest Hills, and one in Jamaica Estates.

Whenever this hospital is ultimately sued and shutdown - i will be expecting my settlement. I hired a "lawfirm" called Brownstien Legal, who reached out to me directly at my address (wonder how they got that?) it turned out once i got into the hearings that my representation was very well known and friendly with the hospital representatives. I would never wish anyone to be subject to this institution, especially when in mental health crisis. I was roofied and got stuck here over my birthday in 2023 with my whole family across the country and it will haunt me for the rest of my life. I should have found justice but instead I found cahoots. This is a sinister and foul place. If you have had a similar experience please find a way to reach me.

Accepted Insurance

Jamaica Hospital Medical 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

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.

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

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.

Treatments

Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

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.

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.

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.
