Our Methodology
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.
Sliding scale payments are based on a client's income and family size. The goal is to make treatment affordable to everyone. By taking these factors into account, addiction recovery care providers help ensure that your treatment does not become a financial burden to you or your family, eliminating one barrier to care.
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.

24-Hour Clinical Care 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.
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.
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.
Clinicians who apply motivational interviewing techniques engage with their clients as equal partners. This method avoids warnings and confrontation and instead allows clients to analyze their situation and explore their options. This technique is often used when the client feels unsure about their ability or desire to change.
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.
Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.
Eye Movement Desensitization And ReprocessingResearch 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.
Life skills training in Washington involves relearning how to manage daily living. It boosts your abilities and confidence so you can overcome challenges both big and small, without returning to substance use.
When your body is properly nourished, healing is much faster. That's why nutrition therapy is an important part of drug rehab in Washington. It helps you learn how to take care of your body so you can heal both mentally and physically from addiction.
Recreational therapy is a dynamic approach to drug and alcohol addiction treatments that integrates activities like gardening, music therapy, and sports. These activities give you a therapeutic outlet for your emotions and help you to reduce your stress levels. This protects your physical and mental health and helps you develop new skills that foster a sober lifestyle.

What Ryther did for me was showing me the path step by step to recovery. That was exactly what I needed, they taught me the basic stuff and also the most complex one and now here I am completely recovered.
My name is hunter i was at ryther in 2013-2015 I was abused by staff held down by 5 plus staff members till I calmed down as I'm in excruciating pain yelling for them to stop then throwing you in a room that's door is held shut a cover put over the window and can keep you there till they feel like it not to mention while they play on there phones and being only being let out twice maybe three times a day this place was absolutely horrendous I wanted to end my life there and I got no therapy for that got put on suicid watc everything stripped from me had to sit at a desk in a corner with nothing no shoes no nothing the staff would take everything from your room and watch you sleep
EDIT TO ORIGINAL REVIEW and lowered from two stars to ONE: they responded under my review within a couple days, with a contact. I contacted them immediately. It has now been over 2 weeks and STILL NO CALL OR EMAIL BACK (for the 7th time now, 4 phone calls (4 voicemails), 2 texts to the therapist and 1 email) and still no response! Wild how y’all respond faster to a bad review than your own clients calls & emails. Maybe a priority check is in order? Absolutely pathetic. I’ve reported Ryther to the Better Business Bureau for investigation. Original review: We love Chloe as a therapist, but unfortunately their billing department is incredibly slow, unhelpful and FAR from transparent. I was told the visits were covered and hadn’t heard anything in 3 months. 5-7 ish visits later we learn that it has not been covered at $180 a visit. I cannot get anyone to call me back or respond to me emails. Sucks my kids have developed a relationship with Chloe just to be tossed to the side like an unwanted piece of garbage. When Chloe was asked who we could contact to resolve this, she couldn’t even answer that. We’ve been searching for help from billing for 4 weeks now. Not a single call or email back. I have resorted to asking my caseworker to now start pestering Ryther to see if they can get an answer from someone… Something is seriously disconnected with this office. I do not recommend Ryther, I do however recommend Chloe.
Loved the staff. Amazing place for the help we needed. They are high in demand and there’s a waitlist but it’s great when you get in. Ryther has a lot of different options for help that I haven’t seen in other places.
Terrible staffing. Takes weeks to book an appointment that 80% of the time gets canceled.
I was told they don't see kids after 3pm. To me it's completely unreasonable to expect a working parent to take off half day from work every week, and they were surprised about that. How out-of-touch they are on this topic makes me question everything else they claim.
I ended up getting placed into ryther In 2012 or 13 by the courts for drug addiction. I spent 39 days there and graduated. Its hard to explain how much this place did for me At a time where everyone was giving up. Incredible place and staff. I doubt the ones that were there for me are still there but I hope they are all doing great.
My experiences with Ryther have been both personal as a foster parent in addition to professional as a community partner through a local non-profit. Ryther provided trauma-informed care to our foster child in a competent and caring manner while providing us with helpful parent education on behavioral and mental health challenges our child was experiencing. Although I was concerned that my foster child would resist participating in counseling, he really enjoyed play therapy and was able to learn coping skills through fun counseling modalities. In my volunteer work with foster children, I have also worked with a number of foster youth who were court-ordered to receive care at Ryther. The foster youths I volunteered with have all felt that the services they received at Ryther gave them positive coping skills and helped them make better life choices. I'm very thankful for the help Ryther has provided to my foster child and to the foster children I volunteer with!
The reason I found my reason to live, and the reason I graduated highschool. After a traumatic past of child abuse and toxic environments this was my last resort, and I told myself if it didn’t work I’d honestly end it all. First of all the therapists are GREAT and genuinely care, they are able to listen to your needs and act on them, and not once did I feel out of place there. My therapist was amazing personally, and she helped me talk through my past and think about my future. She helped me develop emotion regulation skills I never thought Id ever adopt, and I can truly say I wouldn’t be nearly as happy as I am right now if I didn’t go to Ryther. My miracle was finding a reason to go on, I was in a dark place and was very ready to put a stop to it all. It can’t of been easy hearing the weight of my past but my therapist stuck it through WITH me. And was real with me when I made mistakes in the emotion mind. This is the perfect place for treatment of PTSD and depression. Thank you Ryther for everything!
