If I explained the horror that I went through at this recovery center years ago it would be a novel. They will milk your insurance for every penny. They use manipulation to keep you stuck there. Their doctors are quacks and the only thing that happens is non-stop AA meetings ...
About Watershed Treatment Program
By any name, this treatment center has programs for every stage of addiction recovery. They have medical detox, inpatient and residential rehab, outpatient rehab, and partial hospitalization programs (that’s an industry term for a program where you attend rehab sessions throughout the day but then live at home in the evenings). They have a sober living house too called Halfway House. It’s the perfect middle ground for people who don’t need active treatment anymore but still want a structured and sober environment before they’re ready to live on their own.
The Watershed is a state-licensed rehab center so you can count on quality treatment. Programs are basically what you would expect from rehab: therapy, group therapy, and classes that teach you about addiction and how to stay sober.
One thing The Watershed does that’s especially cool is offering specialized programs for certain groups. There’s a dual diagnosis program for people who have mental health issues on top of addiction. There are also gender-specific programs for men and women, a young adults program, and a professionals program that helps you balance treatment with your career. It’s a great way to make sure everyone gets the treatment they need.
Between their many levels of care and special programs, The Watershed is one of those rehabs where there’s something for everyone.

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.

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.
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.
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.
Nutrition therapy, aka medical nutrition therapy (MNT), is a way of treating physical, emotional, and medical conditions through diet. Specific dietary plans are designed by professional nutritionists or registered dietitians, and patients follow them in order to positively affect their physical and mental health.
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.
