Latest Reviews
The intake was smooth and I was easily matched with a therapist. We met weekly for a few months, and then I cancelled a session due to a death in the family. During those sessions, I felt like my therapist talked a lot more than listened and could tell through the body language he was not invested in the sessions. In addition, starting and ending sessions early, it was beginning to be obvious. I had not given up and thought about getting matched with another therapist until it became obvious Bridges did not have interest in my therapy. I called and recommended they follow up with clients especially after they call cancelling due to a death. The lady on the other end said "oh does that mean you want to end your sessions." Do better Bridges! You are dealing with humans.
Buyer beware. Clinic requires two visits that are starting at at least $450 each prior to deductible being met. They are not very good at returning calls or reaching out to you for scheduling. I had previous history of medication, but it was disregarded
Response from the owner3 weeks ago
I'm sorry you feel your deductible is too high. Medications are not easily given and we try to be thorough. Fortunately, if you've now met your deductible, set by your insurance, you'll not need to do that again this year. We'll advise your provider that you are unhappy and forward your records to whomever you wish. 
This Kaylen Kelley is one of the folks you'll get if you go here. These photos are a good example of how she treats people. So go here at your own risk. I certainly wouldn't want to pay someone to treat me this way.

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.
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.
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.
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.
Inpatient
Inpatient rehab enables clients to focus exclusively on their recovery in a highly structured and supportive environment. Housing, meals, and recreational activities are provided. Inpatient treatment allows clients to engage in extensive addiction counseling and recovery education. The environment also provides clients with an opportunity to prepare for the transition to outpatient care or community-based recovery programs.
Medically Assisted Detox
The process of ridding your body of addictive substances under the 24/7 medical supervision is known and medically assisted detox. In an inpatient setting, a team of licensed medical professionals may include doctors, nurses, therapists, and clinical experts. The team will monitor the physical effects of withdrawal and help keep you as safe and comfortable as possible throughout the process.
Treatments
Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.
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.
LGBTQ Program
Recovery is most successful when clients feel accepted and validated by their peers and treatment providers. Facilities that offer LGBTQ-inclusive programming are committed to creating a safe space where everyone can grow and recover without fear of judgment or discrimination. They will have dedicated policies in place to create a safe and supportive environment that fosters free expression.
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.
Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.
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.
