About The Meadows Outpatient Center, Scottsdale
In Scottsdale, Arizona, The Meadows Outpatient Center provides an intensive mental health and addiction program that emphasizes personalized care and holistic healing. They offer supportive accommodations for trauma recovery, addiction treatment and mental health care. Their programs provide holistic, evidence based treatments that treat the entire person instead of just treating the symptoms of a particular disorder.
For mental health programs, Meadows Outpatient Center offers a well rounded course of treatment for anyone facing depression, anxiety, PTSD or any other emotional hindrances. Their emphasis is on treating the trauma that often underlies these mental health disorders. In individual and group therapy, you’ll work with licensed counselors to examine past experiences, develop coping mechanisms and grow in healthier ways.
Integrative therapeutic strategies are their mainstay in treatment. They use cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) as well as mindfulness practices to assist you in gaining better emotional regulation and insight. Family therapy is also available to give your family a chance to heal and recognize the importance of family dynamics and support in the healing process.
Their substance abuse disorder programs tackle the physiological, psychological and emotional effects of addiction. Dual diagnosis treatment will also address the addiction as well as any co-occurring mental health disorders. This treatment center has various phases of treatment to assist you through detox, counseling and ongoing support following completion. The recovery program is a combined effort of group therapy, individual counseling, and 12 Step support. It also includes yoga and methods such as paint therapy to offer treatment from all angles.
The Meadows Outpatient Center goes the extra mile when it comes to addressing trauma in its substance abuse programs. They recognize that many individuals who suffer from addiction have a trauma history that likely influenced their substance use, so they offer services such as somatic experiencing and psychodrama to help patients process some of these traumatic past experiences. The goal is to assist you in processing your trauma, so you don’t rely on a substance as a coping mechanism.
The Meadows also provides aftercare support, ensuring that the work doesn’t stop when your program does. It is part of their comprehensive plan because it helps you sustain the progress you made in treatment. The aftercare program features weekly check ins, online support groups and personalized relapse prevention.

We appreciate your kind works and feedback! We are always striving to provide the best care and foster growth for all patients.
I went to the Meadows intensive outpatient therapy and was under the care of Dr.Volfson who prescribed me an overdose of gabapentin. Prescribers start patients at 300mg and she prescribed me 1200 plus an additional 600mg 8 hours later. I began to experience seizures and convulsions and was transported to the hospital.I explained this situation to the director and she did not seem to care. I also wrote a letter asking for my medical bills to be covered which was denied.Their staff is inept at best and I would not recommend this facility to anyone who needs help with mental health issues. Dealing with this place made my issues worse. Do not go to them if you need help!!!!!!

In sending our son to iop we had high hopes. Unfortunately it did not pan out too well for us. The financial intake had no patience when requesting to use two payment methods, but I thought no problem, as she is not carrying for my son. About two weeks prior to our son leaving, we had some concerns and requested a family session to discuss transition and next steps. In that meeting we learned that there were some sort of family sessions...... what??? The Meadows took our money and we did not find out about family sessions until the transition meeting, that we requested. Now our son is out, and no place to go really. And once you leave, 'by by', they are done with you. No followup, nothing. Thank you Meadows, family sessions would have been helpful along the way. May have uncovered the issue that drained the blood from the therapist' face much sooner. We had more communication with the sober living facility he lived in. How does one one go through treatment without family sessions, we never heard of such a thing, the family is just as impacted. I'm still scratching my head.

Accepted Insurance
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.
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
Medically Assisted Detox Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal.
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.
12-Step 12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).
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.
Intensive Outpatient Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs.
Sober Living Homes Sober Living Houses (SLHs), aka sober homes or halfway houses, are safe, substance-free, supportive living facilities for those recovering from substance abuse. Ideal for those who've just been through inpatient or outpatient treatment, SLHs are supervised environments with rules that support sobriety, such as curfews, shared chores, and therapeutic meetings. Residents are also often trained on life skills and coping skills to make it easier to transition into society. SLHs also provide a strong sense of community that can lead to the kind of deep and lasting connections with other sober individuals that supports a new, healthy lifestyle.
Treatments
The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.
Drug rehab in Arizona is the process of treating individuals who are dependent on a particular addictive drug. Because addiction is complex, this treatment typically includes a variety of interventions that address the many physical and emotional issues involved.
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.
A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.
Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.
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
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.
EMDR is a therapeutic modality originally developed to help process trauma. In an EMDR session, a patient is prompted to undergo eye movements that mimic those of REM sleep. This is accomplished by watching a therapist's finger move back and forth across, or following a bar of light. The goal is repetitive sets of eye movements that help the brain reprocess memory, which can significantly reduce the intensity of remembered traumatic incidents. Associated memories can heal simultaneously, leaving patients significantly calmer, more stable, and more emotionally relaxed.
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.
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.
