So for the first time yesterday I called birnie ave which is the main office and was actually transferred to a VM during business hours!!! This is 100% unacceptable for any of the offices. These staff are clearly lazy because in any health care place under no circumstances should anyone be put to VM when the office is open unless you give the patient that option. Put us in hold, also they can't even get their patients names and phone numbers correct. Good to know I was also in their foster care system and residential homes so yes I have been with these people for years. Get it together seriously. Even healthcare doesn't seem to care for their patients anymore it's all about money smh

Worst Agency in the State. Top-heavy, greedy, unprofessional Corporate folks. Ridiculous management. The best Managers left because they knew they weren't working for an ethical Agency. Existing Management are the most embarrassingly unprofessional group of individuals you'll ever encounter. Beware.

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 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.

Child Program
The providers who specialize in the children's rehab space understand the specialized needs that this population faces. School-based and social services such as tutoring and family counseling are often central to treatment. Child programs may also address the needs of youth experiencing substance abuse in the home, including a parent's or sibling's 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 thumbnail image
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.

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.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.

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.

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.

Recreational therapy (aka therapeutic recreation) uses creative and fun activities to help with addiction recovery. Recreational therapists lead patients in entertaining and engaging activities like sports or games; art (drawing, painting, sculpture); drama, music, and dance; and/or community outings (field trips) to improve patients' physical, social, and emotional well-being.

CHD will not help if any potential liability might happen. If you need emergency, call 911 if less, good luck (your worth it, but this company blows).

Cindy N was one of the best women i ve ever met in my life. She helped me in the toughest part of my life. I thank her for her incredible knowledge and for always pushing me to do better, along with helping her with my small children who were all 3 under 2. Cindy is someone who truly takes pride in her job and loves every kid she works with.

States clearly in description of program to help adolescence in recovery who also have behavioral issues. This program discharged my son more then half way through treatment because of his behavioral problems. Mostly attitude, and negativity. Who took him into this program knowing his history. They claim they treat recovery not behavioral? Ummmm.... hes a 14 year old with substance problems. How can a treatment facility geared for adolescence with addiction issues not also treat for behavioral? They go hand in hand? It literally blew my mind. Also I know of 3 other children who were kicked out for relapsing?? Isnt part of recovery relapse? Its a shame that they dont exspect these things to occur. Adults relapse why would you exspect it wouldnt happen to kids? Also everytime i called my son i got attitude. And no communication. Very dissapointed. This is our youth and as a parent i feel like my son was thrown back to the wolves. Sad because its the only treatment place we have in western mass. Ive spoke to many Dr,s, lawyers, professionals..... they all agree. Clearly this program needs to be reevaluated.!!
