Every person on staff is remarkable! They were all supportive, flexible, and willing to help. They made a tremendous impact on my life and I am forever grateful. They took a hard life lesson and helped me make the most of it. I learned so much and gained so much perspective. This program allowed me to heal and grow in ways I never thought imaginable.

I have been attending the Friday night support group at A Good Life Counseling since March of 2013. The care team of Eric, Angie, Shaelyn and Balvina have been tremendously instrumental in my recovery from addictionto alcohol for over 8 years now. I highly recommend their program for recovery from addiction and mental health support. They genuinely care for the clients and will always go above and beyond what is asked of them.

Other Forms of Payment

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.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

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.

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.

Professional services are often necessary to recover from addiction. Drug rehab in Colorado provides the expert services needed to address the complex issues of addiction and help individuals start their recovery journey.

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.

Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

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.

Program For Men

Men face specific challenges and concerns when seeking addiction treatment. Gender-specific recovery programs help them tackle these issues head-on in an environment that's focused, targeted, and distraction-free. It also gives them the opportunity to connect with and learn from other men who have been through a similar journey and can offer support for the next step.

Program For Women

Rehabs for women provide a safe, nurturing space for female clients to heal. These treatment programs consider the specific obstacles that women can face during recovery and place a special emphasis on mental, social, physical, and reproductive health. They explore how each woman's experience has shaped the trajectory of their substance use, addressing issues such as sexual abuse and past trauma.

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

Men and women in Colorado have access to customized individual therapy sessions for drug and alcohol addiction treatment. These sessions explore your life experiences and patterns of substance abuse. Your therapist helps you recognize harmful behaviors and thoughts that empower you to make positive changes for lasting recovery.

I've attended meetings for years here. The counselors I have had experience with have all been kind and helpful. I attend out of personal choice, not because I am required. Without the weekly support group, I question whether I would have many of the good things I have in my life.

Thank you for the kind words! We are so lucky to have wonderful counselors. Thank you for all you do as well! We appreciate people like you who are always giving back and such a valuable part of our support groups!

Stanley Shaffer

Very competent, experienced, compassionate staff. I looked forward to my sessions and benefited a great deal from their program.

Thank you for giving us input on your experience at our agency! We appreciate it and we appreciate you!

Literally just got "thats rough, bro" when i mentioned that I was actively suicidal largely due to how my care had been handled by this company.

Two sides to every situation and you know our staff helped you until you needed counseling that our counselors are not licensed to provide. You were referred to another agency to get the help you needed. We are saddened to see you leave a poor review. We really do hope you were able to get the help you needed. We truly wish you the best.

During my time here I found that all of the counselors were very understanding and genuinely wanted to help their clients to avoid having the same problems in the future. The whole staff is very nice and made it so I didn t dread coming to class each week.

They'll tell you over the phone that you don't have to do UAs and can do it through probation instead. This is untrue- it's a requirement of their program and they will not inform you until you've already signed several papers and paid them for the assessment. Be wary of anything they say unless you can get it in writing. Also they did not inform me that I would have to repay the assessment fee if I wanted to do counselling elsewhere. Very dishonest and I am 100% sure I have the correct business in mind

Response from the owner5 years ago

It sounds like you have our agency confused with another agency . We always allow people to do a UA through probation. In fact, we make no money off UA s at our agency. We spend two hours minimum with every new client and make sure you know what everything is you are signing for and then provide you a copy. Sorry you had a bad experience somewhere but I can assure you it wasn t through us.

Mr.Peck,We would like to apologize for the incident that happened today. We understand that traffic can become an inconvenience there for making a client late. If there is anything that we can do to make up for what happened today we would love to try. If not then we wish you all the best and we are always here if you need us.
