Not a healthy atmosphere I think. You are treated as if you had the plague. Note that I came here for help but instead was treated very poorly. These people don't focus enough on the attention that goes in ensuring patients are also improving their mental health

Avoid this company at all costs. Horrible horrible company. The designated crisis responders have lied through their teeth about me and take my rights away. If I was able to sue them for slander I would. If I could give zero stars I would.
The counselours here made my trust issues and my life way worse than it even was before, now that i have a counselor that's decent who has actually helped, I am just now starting to trust getting help in this kind of setting again (6 years later!!!!! That's how long it took for me to even think about seeing a counselor again after coming here) DO NOT come here, ever. They will leave you with more issues than when you came in. I can't even explain everything that happened and what they did to me, just take my word for it, please.
I have experiences with Compass Health as a patient and as a member of the public who lives with a client of their who is part of their outpatient program. As a patient I was never able to connect with the councilors I saw and I found what I needed elsewhere. It felt like they were trying to rush patients in and out. Some of my counciling appointments we're only 20 minutes long. I get the feeling that it's all about numbers and not spending as much time as possible with each patient. It shouldn't be about the total number of people seen but the total number of people who received the help they needed. Now as a member of the public I have witnessed first hand that their outpatient program is a complete joke. I live with a person is part of this program and Compass is responsible for finding a place for them to live and also pays their rent. From what I've read the program is supposed to have a very involved team of councilors for patients and councilors make frequent check up on their patients at home in between regular appointments. I have lived with this person for a little over 3 months and I don't know her councilor hasn't been able to see that this person is doing absolutely nothing to try to improve their mental health. Actually they really only do things that worsen a person's mental health. This person started smoking meth in the house just a few days after moving in. I am a recoving addict and know the signs and smell when a person is smoking meth. Most of the time the house is filled with cigarette smoke which is a common way to try to hide the smell but I've also smelled burnt meth on it's own. I've been told by a member of their family and by several people she has had over that this person uses meth and they even have offered it to our other roommate. They have also engaged in criminal activity and been arrested twice since living here. This person has broke into my car and stole several things which my other roommate has seen in this person's room. Stolen mail has been found open and in this person's room as well. They are awake for days and days at a time which has led them to go into meth psychosis. The police had to be called during one where this person kicked my door open in the middle of the night while I was asleep and began to scream at me. Everything was reported to our property manager and they started the eviction process against this person. For whatever reason Compass sent their rental assistance for the next month and because of a miscommunication between the property manager and landlord the payment was accepted and now the eviction process has to start over. Either she is a master liar/manipulator or her Councilor is blind or even worse doesn't care and just does the least amount of work required to keep their job. From what I've seen first hand Compass Health has done nothing but enable this person to continue to abuse drugs and commit crimes with the money the state gave Compass Health to provide housing assistance to people who need it. I've been living in hell because of this and my own mental health has been greatly affected because of it. I don't blame Compass Health completely but their a obviously serious flaws that need to be corrected for who is given this assistance and with how much time is spent ensuring patients are doing things to improve their mental health so they are not a danger to themselves and others.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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 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
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
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
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.
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.
