Yes, we work with most major insurance providers. Our admissions team will verify your benefits and explain your coverage, including deductibles, copays, and out-of-pocket costs before you arrive.
We offer several payment options including self-pay rates, payment plans, and can help connect you with resources for financial assistance. Don’t let cost be a barrier to reaching out—we’ll work with you to find a solution.
Most insurance plans cover medically necessary detox and residential treatment for substance use disorders. Coverage varies by plan, but typically includes medical services, therapy, medications, and room and board during your stay.
We believe in transparent pricing. We’ll clearly outline all costs during the admissions process, including any fees for specific services or amenities not covered by insurance.
The appropriate level of care depends on several factors, including the severity of your substance use, your medical and psychiatric history, and your support system. Our admissions team will conduct a comprehensive assessment to determine the best placement for your needs. Generally, detox is recommended if you’re at risk for medical complications during withdrawal, while residential treatment provides 24/7 structured care and support in early recovery.
Our admissions process is designed to be simple and supportive. You’ll start with a confidential phone conversation where we’ll ask about your substance use history, medical needs, and treatment goals. We’ll verify your insurance benefits, conduct a pre-admission assessment, and coordinate your arrival date.
You can absolutely admit yourself. Self-admission shows tremendous courage and is often associated with better outcomes. However, family members or healthcare providers can also help initiate the process with your consent.
We understand that when you’re ready for help, timing is critical. In many cases, we can admit you within 24-48 hours, depending on bed availability and medical clearance requirements.
Medical detox is a supervised process where your body safely withdraws from drugs or alcohol. Our medical team monitors you 24/7, manages withdrawal symptoms with medications when appropriate, and ensures your safety and comfort.
Detox length varies based on the substance(s) used, duration of use, and individual factors. Generally, detox takes 3-10 days, though some substances may require longer monitoring.
Withdrawal can be uncomfortable, but our medical team uses evidence-based protocols and medications to minimize discomfort and ensure safety. Some substances (like alcohol and benzodiazepines) can cause dangerous withdrawal symptoms, which is why medical supervision is crucial.
We use FDA-approved medications tailored to your specific needs. These may include medications to ease withdrawal symptoms, reduce cravings, prevent seizures, and manage co-occurring conditions like anxiety or depression.
Detox is just the first step. After completing detox, we strongly recommend transitioning to our residential program to address the underlying causes of addiction and develop recovery skills.
Residential treatment provides a safe, structured environment where you live on-site while receiving intensive treatment. You’ll participate in individual therapy, group counseling, educational sessions, and therapeutic activities, all while being supported by 24/7 clinical staff.
Program length varies based on individual needs, but typical stays range from 30-90 days. Research shows that longer treatment durations are associated with better long-term outcomes.
Days are structured and purposeful, typically including: morning meditation or exercise, breakfast, group therapy, individual counseling sessions, educational workshops, lunch, recreational therapy, process groups, dinner, evening activities, and personal reflection time.
While we hope you’ll complete the full program, treatment is voluntary. We encourage you to discuss any concerns with your treatment team rather than leaving prematurely, as early departure significantly impacts recovery success.
