I do not like the new psychiatrist. He always gave a run around with appointments and is so unprofessional about our personal cases, all of this makes me upset.

Dr. P in dental is great. Went for a tooth extraction I was nervous for and couldn t have asked for a better job you can tell he really cares about his clients and works his tail off
DO NOT GO THERE. JUST DONT. They are not skilled enough. I tried for YEARS with this place! Made a bad situation worse.
Went here with my boyfriend so he could have a comprehensive exam done. The first lady at the front desk was nice enough, but contradicted herself multiple times. I told her that we were told he would have an x-ray and plan made up today (which is part of the comprehensive exam) and she says Yes, and then proceeds to tell me that the comprehensive exam is something different while explaining the exact same thing I just said and that he would need to pay for it on his next visit. Without insurance, this exam is $160. The visit today was $160 as well. So we pay it and wait 30 minutes past his appointment time (10) to be seen. When we arrived (around 9:40), there were only 3 other people there. So we go back and he has to get his weight and height checked. The assistant was very rude and demanding with how she spoke to him. He had to empty his pockets (he wanted to weigh himself as accurately as possible) and she shouted no, over here, when he was right there, just handing me stuff to put away quickly. Then, when in the exam room, he mentioned he didn t want to bite too hard on the plastic pieces because it bothered his top teeth (they are literally in half) and she says I understand , then proceeds to still put it in the same way. I had to be the one to tell him to use his lips for grip instead of his teeth. When the dentist comes in, he says he is going to do the comprehensive exam (something the front lady said he might have to make another appointment for, again, we had already paid the $160 for this exact thing, and now the dentist CONFIRMED he was going to do it!), and he proceeds. He made a list of everything needed done. Out of absolutely no where, the assistant says that what they do wont even matter if he isn t going to keep up with it himself. You are right, he does, but to come off judgemental like that is crazy. He had a rough upbringing and is deciding to do what he can now to better his dental care. To make a big decision about your health and then go to a place that should be free of judgement just to be spoken to like that is uncalled for. She then explains what plaque build up is like we were dumb. The dentist seemed nice. Unfortunately, the assistant even had an attitude with him. I feel sorry. When we leave, I informed another desk lady that he had the comprehensive exam, something she said we would have to come back and pay AGAIN for. I said, He did have the x-rays and plan made for care, and she said it was more than that. I said, Well, I heard the dentist say he was doing the comprehensive exam twice, 100% So she goes back into his chart and guess what it does, in fact, read? Yes, he DID have it done. They were going to have us pay ANOTHER $160 whether due to greed and/or incompetence, I m not sure, but patients DO NOT DESERVE THIS TREATMENT. It is already hard enough without insurance and so when someone does save the money to invest in their health, it should be taken seriously and they should not be given the run around or taken advantage of. I am very disappointed by the behavior I witnessed today and do not recommend anyone going here for dental services. Owensville dentist is much more accommodating, and even better, they are more than happy to answer any and every question you have for them without treating you like crap. Would also like to add this place charges before the appointment unlike other Compasses I have been to, and I understand why now.

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.
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 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.
Intensive Outpatient Intensive outpatient programs provide an intermediate level of care, often supporting clients' transition from inpatient rehab to outpatient treatment. Most IOP programs require a minimum of nine therapeutic hours weekly, but clients may receive up to 20 hours of care, with the intensity and frequency of care declining as clients grow stronger in their sobriety. Intensive outpatient treatment generally combines addiction counseling, recovery education, holistic therapies, and, for some, medication assisted treatment (MAT).
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.
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.
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.
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.
A complete course of dialectical behavior therapy typically takes six months. Skills training happens in a group setting. You'll also attend weekly individual treatment sessions to receive coaching from a therapist. You'll work on understanding and accepting your feelings and learn how to manage them to make positive changes.
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.
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.
Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) is a way of getting nicotine into the bloodstream without smoking. It uses products that supply low doses of nicotine to help people stop smoking. The goal of therapy is to cut down on cravings for nicotine and ease the symptoms of nicotine withdrawal.
