About Lakeview Health Services–Lakeview Heights Supportive Apartments Program

Lakeview Heights in Seneca Falls, New York, is a transitional housing program for adults aged 18 and up, including seniors. They offer support for co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders. Care includes individual and group therapy, family counseling and experiential therapy, which uses activities to help process emotions and behaviors.

Comfortable Apartments with Essentials

There are 26 one bedroom apartments with open floor plans, central air, and appliances like stoves, refrigerators and dishwashers. As a resident, you’ll have access to free laundry, community lounges, a secure entry system and off street parking. The building is completely smoke free, but outdoor areas are set aside for smoking.

They help folks with severe mental health concerns, and staff is available 24/7 to provide medication management and personal help to build skills for independent living. They offer specialized care for active duty military, veterans, people with HIV or PTSD, those with eating disorders and LGBTQ+ clients.

Group Outings and Community Activities

A rehabilitation coach meets with each resident once or twice a week to help make a plan specific to them. You’ll get hands-on experience learning to manage medications, like how to store them safely, order refills and take them on your own.

They’ll help you connect with local doctors, therapists and other support you may need. Staff organize community outings, giving you a chance to attend sports events, festivals and fun activities.

Small Town with Hollywood Connection

Lakeview Heights sits in a quiet country setting, with New York State Route 5 and U.S. Route 20 running east and west through town, offering easy access to shopping centers and peaceful outdoor spaces that support recovery. Nearby Cayuga Lake State Park offers camping, fishing, hiking and a beach for swimming and relaxing.

There’s a museum and gift shop honoring “It’s a Wonderful Life” since many believe Seneca Falls inspired the town in the film.

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.

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.

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

Inpatient

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

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.

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.

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).

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.

Men and women in New York undergoing one on one individual therapy for drug and alcohol addiction treatment will address the unique psychological and emotional aspects that are often associated with addiction triggers. Your therapist helps you build a relapse prevention plan and set achievable goals to improve your mental health and achieve long term sobriety.

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.

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

Nicotine is an addictive substance found in cigarettes. When you stop smoking, your body experiences withdrawal from this substance. Nicotine replacement therapy lets you slowly reduce your nicotine intake so you experience minimal withdrawal symptoms. Eventually you'll be down to zero.

Took me a long time to think about posting this. Like two years long. TL;DR: In the end, it is fully on you whether this place can help you. But it can utterly break you if you are not ready/naive. I would absolutely not live here unless I was IN the program and needed it. It would be a nightmare to live here and be a functioning person. I think this program is good in theory. At times there are really cool people here really trying to fix their lives. Then there are absolute monsters, lurking around and waiting for you to show any type of weakness. Some of the people here will eat you alive if you are not prepared. Which you will, if you are living here you are living with a bunch of other struggling people you are likely struggling, too. There will be times that you want to get the office involved and depending on the person, eh... It will feel like telling a high-school teacher. It won't get you anywhere, really. You'll be wondering where the support is. You might find yourself thinking you'd be better off alone. You probably would be. You will be hounded and your space invaded and inspected weekly, sometimes more. The staff cycles pretty regularly. There are a few good ones, and most of the time if you really like someone they'll leave. I felt incredibly abandoned and kicked out. People had been there five years and at two years they kinda booted me. At the time, I was so unconfident and felt so angry and unstable. I really felt like a punted baby deer. It actually turned out to be one of the better things that happened to me. That place and SOCS was killing me. I am confident now. I can take up space, I can say "eh, I didn't like it." And not feel bad. This place is part of my history, and it made me the man I am today, but I would never set foot on the grounds again and I am so glad I never have to. What can I say, I'm still a little salty. 🤷‍♂️ You are close to a bank, Walmart, and a doctor office, a pharmacy, but also the dump is right there and it wafts right over most days. The building was built on a swamp and was settling really heavily when I was there. Work with Lakeview supportive housing and SPOA, they will help you get a independent apartment and a care manager, you will be much happier, eventually shift to section 8. Only go here if you will be homeless and go here knowing to distance yourself from other residents and protect your peace. You will save yourself before anyone else will.
