Fantastic, and very knowledgable staff with experience about the different levels of addiction and alcoholism and how to treat them. The groups are run very professionally. They also get to help people on an individual/one on one level where honesty is key in a trusted environment.. Really getting to the root/core of the problem to offer the individual confidence in a fulfilling sober life that can now seem sustainable! Hope becomes real... Highly recommend.

When you re a high function person with mental concerns, this place is no use. The intake process was ridiculous, they made me come back twice for the SAME appointment. I was supposed to fill paperwork on one appointment then come back for the health portion yet they had me doing things I should ve did at the first appointment. I had Shannon as a case worker and she was no help at all. Whenever I was on the phone with her it felt like she was rambling and talking in circles like okay get to the point and let me get off the phone. Seems like all she knows how to do is give referrals and tell me I m on a wait list for employment help. Imagine waiting 5 months get to get help with employment. I already found one on my own. Her supervisor Curtis NEVER calls when you have concerns. I needed help with maintaining my current housing situation which I was told I d get assistance with to get a reasonable accommodation done. I ask Shannon the other day all of a sudden she doesn t have a response, then claims the office phones aren t working. But I called the location 3 times to speak with with a manager- the front desk answered and phones were working fine. Feels like I was dealing with illiterate people that just didn t understand common sense. Then Shannon would try to flip it on me as if I m not compliant like if you can t help me with NONE of the issues I am having why waste my time and call me for something unimportant so yes I would not answer because she doesn t get to the point. But when I had concerns about my housing she couldn t call. Swear these people at this agency are slow

Shannon smith. Case manager states she has no obligation to speak with family. Due to the fact of personality conflict. Mental health has everything to do with family. The peer specialist states she no longer wants to deal with my son, Daniella Wentz. The supervisor Curtis never returns calls, even after a year and a half. Snide comments is not professional and not responding is not professional. A lack of staff and nasty residential staff.They also thrw away everything he owned from their CRT program due to him being incarcerated and then to a hospital for placement. The boy has no one, mother lives in another state and father has had hard times unable to visit and they have all of his money. Appalled.

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.

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.

Sliding scale payments are based on a client's income and family size. The goal is to make treatment affordable to everyone. By taking these factors into account, addiction recovery care providers help ensure that your treatment does not become a financial burden to you or your family, eliminating one barrier to care.

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.

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.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

Outpatient

Outpatient rehabs encompass multiple levels of care to facilitate clients' progress through their recovery journey. Clients who are stepping down from inpatient treatment may require intensive outpatient (IOP) treatment, which involves more frequent and substantive therapeutic interventions than does standard outpatient care. Outpatient centers typically provide extensive addiction counseling, including individual, group, and family therapy. Medication assisted treatment programs (MAT) and recovery-focused life skills training are also common in outpatient care.

Inpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

Medically Assisted Detox

The first step of the recovery process involves the removal of all drugs and alcohol from your system while under 24/7 medical supervision. Known as a medically assisted detox, you are closely monitored by medical staff who can provide medications, if necessary, to help alleviate any potential withdrawal symptoms. Medical detox is usually followed by a period of inpatient addiction treatment.

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

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.

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

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.

During couples therapy in Florida, your therapist will take steps to get to know you, help you identify feelings, explore the past, develop solutions, and help you learn skills to manage relationship challenges. This process will allow you to work through conflict and strengthen your relationship.

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.

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.

This place had one of their case managers come to the home next door to me and they the case manager damaged my driveway on his way out and they refuse to solve the issue. I have called several times and was told by Maria who is Jose's manager they would call me back and then she was out of the office the next day. When I called back Carolyn told me to call my lawyer or go after my neighbors home owners insurance if i have an issue. Therefore I will be doing exactly that and speaking with my attorney.
