About Amador County Behavioral Health

Amador County Behavioral Health is a public behavioral health facility in Sutter Creek, California that serves adolescents, young adults, men, women, the elderly, and individuals who are hard of hearing. This facility provides outpatient care to individuals seeking treatment for mental health concerns, drug and alcohol addictions, and co-occurring disorders.

Outpatient treatment at Amador County Behavioral Health is structured around addiction counseling and intentional therapy, including trauma therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). In some cases, more robust treatment via partial hospitalization programs (PHP) and intensive outpatient programs (IOP) can help an individual transition from inpatient care or detox.

Amador County Behavioral Health can connect clients with additional support through available community resources including 12 Step programs and family, group, or individual counseling. Structured and ongoing support can help minimize the risk of relapse.

Amador County Behavioral Health accepts Medicaid, Medicare, and private insurance from providers including Aetna, Amerigroup, Ambetter, BlueCross/BlueShield, United Healthcare, and Kaiser Permanente. Speak with your provider as out of network benefits may apply. Self-pay options and financial aid are also available to those who qualify.

We have been involved with Behavioral health for a few years and I have had several appointments scheduled where they write my date and time on a card that I save...only to show up and I have no appointment. I live pretty far from them so it was a serious inconvenience. Almost every time since we have started with them there have been medication hold ups. The Doctor(Dr. Hyatt) is kind but needs assistance with medication refills. The only person in my opinion who is on her stuff is the nurse. When you have a adopted child on anti-psychotics and call and hear things like...well the doctor is out we don t know what we can do....after you have been calling for over a week when she was there, it s very disappointing; a After which they say things like we never heard from you. I check my call log and see I have called several times....it starts to feel like gaslighting. I know many who seek treatment here including us don t have any other options...but please stay on these people if you are on life saving meds. We have been kind and patient for so long, I can t imagine others going through this and needing medication to keep them doing okay. You can t trust them to do what they say, you will need to call over and over. Stay on them and if they continue to not do what they need to do file a formal complaint. If enough people do this, I hope our most vulnerable population can receive proper treatment and a better quality of care.

Location

Accepted Insurance

Amador County Behavioral Health works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Other Forms of Payment

Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.

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.

Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.

Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient
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

Mental health rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and more. Mental health professionals at these facilities are trained to understand and treat mental health issues, both in individual and group settings.

Programs

teen-program thumbnail image
Teen Program
Teen programs are designed to address the unique pressures teens face, pressures that can drive them to experiment with dangerous, addictive substances. They need programs that meet them exactly where they are and give them tools for long-term recovery. Therapy can help teenagers understand and work through underlying issues so they can reclaim the life ahead of them.
adult-program thumbnail image
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.
seniors-program thumbnail image
Seniors Program
Nearly one million adults age 65 and older live with a substance use disorder. Treatment providers who specialize in senior care understand the social, psychological, and physical effects of aging and how they relate to recovery. They can help clients address particular challenges and risks they may face as they get older such as overdosing and medication interactions and dependencies.
hearing-impaired-program thumbnail image
Hearing Impaired Program
A sensory disability, such as hearing impairment, can compound the challenges of addiction recovery. Drug rehabs that are specially designed to accommodate the needs of persons with hearing impairments will include special accessibility features and accommodations to make treatment as comfortable and effective as possible. This may include access to American Sign Language interpreters.
young-adult-program thumbnail image
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.

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.

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.

If you actually need help, don't go here. Maybe you're like me and can't afford any better of a situation, but this place has been horrible. Both the "counseling" and "doctor" are such jokes. Expect for the therapist to miss several scheduled appointments and don't rely on the doctor to help you with a diagnosis or medication help. The "counseling" sessions (when she does decide to call you) are pointless meaningless meetings about "just letting go of any worries and it'll all be good." It's just very unhelpful, repetitive, pointless, and a time for the counsellor to tell you just to chill out and get over being sad and then take 15 mins of your appointment to schedule an appointment she's gonna miss the next month and long pauses where she doesn't say a word to you cuz she's typing something instead of talking to you. Is been over 2 years and I still don't have a diagnosis or any medicine or support with my mental health issues. I'm at the end of my rope and just done with it all. I'm sorry if you have to go here for "help."

when it comes to prescribing medication, they do not take their patients seriously. i was on a new medication for TWO months before i finally got a call, very disrespectful and inattentive, felt like they were just taking my money and never took me seriously. DEFINITELY would suggest trying a different place.

Individual bi-weekly therapy good, BUT (and this is a gigantic BUT), don't expect ANY professional medical help. Doctors are on teleconference overseas as will prescribe you medication based on an approved memo on their desk rather than what you be been preach ed, and what works, for 15 years. Totally bogus!
