The reason I’m giving this place a 5-star review is because of the amazing people I met while I was staying there. First, I want to give a big shout-out to a few of the PCCs and staff members who truly made a difference. Stacy—thank you so much for your patience, understanding, and kindness. I truly hope you achieve everything you’re working toward. You would make an incredible counselor. The way you treated us with respect, compassion, and genuine care says so much about your work ethic and your character. Ash and Mike S - thank you for your patience and for always treating us with love, kindness, and respect. You made us feel like human beings, and that means more than you know. Stephan, Johnny, Gary, and Antwo—thank you for everything. The list of people I appreciate could honestly go on. Joe—you’re the man! Thank you for helping me even when you didn’t have to. And to my counselor, James—I’m truly grateful that our paths crossed. Thank you for your guidance and support. To anyone considering coming here: if you’re serious about getting help, staying focused on your goals, and working on your sobriety, you can absolutely succeed here. One thing I learned is that treating others with respect goes a long way. This isn’t a resort, so don’t expect a different meal every day or luxury accommodations. Like any program, there are some downsides, but for me, there were far more positives than negatives. I left with valuable lessons, support, and hope. At the end of the day, recovery starts with you and with the mindset you choose to have. Thank you to everyone who helped me during my stay. I truly appreciate everything you did, and I wish you all nothing but the best.

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.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

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. The length of stay at the detoxification program is determined according to the specific needs of the patient.

A partial hospitalization program (PHP) is a short-term form of intensive rehab, usually for those with acute symptoms that are hard to manage but don’t require 24-hour care. PHPs have structured programming (i.e. individual and/or group therapy), and usually meet 3-5 days a week for around 6 hours (i.e. 9am-3m). Some PHPs are residential (patients sleep on site) and some are not, so patients sleep at home. PHPs can last from 1-6 months, and some offer transportation and meals.

Outpatient rehabs offer an intermediate level of care for clients who do not require the kind of intensive supervision and support an inpatient program typically provides. Many clients transition into outpatient care immediately after exiting inpatient treatment. Others enter outpatient programs upon completing detox. Some facilities offer ambulatory medical detox for clients who do not require hospitalization. Most outpatient rehabs offer a combination of services, including addiction counseling, life skills training, and medication assisted treatment (MAT).

Inpatient rehabs provide a space for clients to focus exclusively on their recovery while receiving intensive supervision and support. Inpatient treatment centers provide housing and food and most offer round-the-clock clinical care. Their primary treatment modalities typically consist of addiction counseling using various psychotherapeutic methods, including CBT, DBT, RBT, and motivational interviewing. Many rehabs also provide specialized services for clients with co-occurring addiction and mental illness. Recovery-focused life skills training and holistic therapies are other common services.

Clients who enroll in an intensive outpatient program (IOP) are typically either in early recovery or are experiencing a crisis that increases their relapse risk. These programs promote clients' sustained sobriety through robust support, including multiple, extended care sessions per week. Intensive outpatient treatment often encompasses an array of services, including psychotherapy, recovery education, and evidence-based holistic therapies, such as acupuncture and meditation. Many outpatient rehabs also offer medication assisted treatment (MAT).

Clients in rehab aftercare programs receive a customized portfolio of services designed to promote their sustained sobriety. These clients have completed high-level treatment, are typically exiting detox and/or intensive inpatient care and are reintegrating into their home, workplace, and community. Rehab aftercare services address addiction disease as a chronic condition requiring continuing care. Clients typically work with case managers and recovery teams to access necessary resources, such as peer coaching and 12 step program induction support.

What time is the last call patients are able to make?

L J

Disorganized & understaffed. Every staff member gives you a different answer about everything. The only accurate information I ever got was from other patients! My counselor was perpetually condescending, which made it difficult to work with her. She also knows very little about addiction and mental health. The combination of ignorance & condescension was frustrating. For example, at one point I mentioned that previous therapists have suggested I may have CPTSD. She had never heard of CPTSD, & therefore acted as if it was something I made up. Didn't even bother Googling it, even tho she was sitting in front of her computer. She seems to think a patient can't possibly know something she doesn't. She spent a week telling me there's a psychiatrist available. There isn't. Only a psych nurse. I was VERY clear about needing a psychiatrist, NOT a psych nurse. Either she doesn't understand the difference between a psychiatrist & a psych nurse, or she lied to my face. One AM, she scolded me like I was a child for missing group. I missed it because the nurses were 2.5 HOURS late for AM meds!! Our Care Coordinator told us to wait on line for meds, then go to group. I was last on line, so by the time I got my meds, group was over. My counselor told me I should've gone to group & waited for the nurses to come get me. Yeah, that's not how it works - if you don't show up for meds, you miss them. All the patients & CCs know this. Just the day prior, my roommate missed her afternoon meds because she fell asleep. My counselor refused to believe this, & INSISTED the nurses will come get you, again highlighting her frustrating combination of ignorance & condescension. Getting your meds is a nerve-wracking daily experience that no patient should have to endure. Many of the nurses feel entitled to arbitrarily deny meds. I take gabapentin 600 MG, 3x/day. My roommate takes gabapentin 300 MG, 3x/day. The day the nurses were 2.5 hours late, Nurse 1 refused to let my roommate have her afternoon dose, "because you got your AM dose so late, you can't take another so soon." Ma'am YOU are the reason she got her AM dose so late. More importantly: Nurse 1 allowed me to have my afternoon dose, even though I got my AM meds a full hour later & I'm on DOUBLE the dose! So this was a 100% arbitrary decision. I was a heavy smoker before checking in, & UR allows only 5 smokes a day, so the Medical Director approved me for a nicotine patch to make up the difference, as such a sudden & severe reduction would've been hell. Nurse 2, after giving me my patch, looked at her screen & said, "Wait, this says you go out to smoke. You shouldn't get a patch if you're smoking." I was lucky she didn't notice this until after giving me the patch, because it was clear from her demeanor & tone of voice that she would've denied me it otherwise - even though it's not her decision; it's the MD's decision. Right before giving me the patch, she told me, "You know you have to take it off before you go to bed, right?" I just nodded because I didn't want to argue, but...no. That's not how nicotine patches work. You change them every 24 hours. It says so right on the dang box! It's just that for some people, the patch gives them nightmares. For those people, AND ONLY THOSE PEOPLE, it should be taken off at night. Like ma'am, you have no clue how these patches work, you haven't even read the basic instructions on the box, so IDK how you have the audacity to think it's up to you to decide whether I can have them. The nurses are there to dispense meds, not prescribe them. Most of them had no clue how ANY of my meds worked - the level of ignorance was shocking. They're barely nurses. They're just walking pill dispensers, & they should keep that in mind, & not go around thinking they're qualified to decide if patients should be allowed to have their meds or not. Rehab is stressful enough without the constant threat of being denied your meds. This issue, plus the lack of psych services, is why I left after a week. My counselor treating me like a mildly stupid child didn't help.
