I was a client as a child for autism in both an after school program and therapy through four oaks and this place has left me with more damage than what i came in with. I think about the hellish ideas they tried to force on me and the lack of care when being harassed by other people in the autism groups and it was awful. Made my ability to socialize much more complicated and made it harder to make friends. I dont recommend going here at all for any autism related help. Especially after school groups.y life would have been better if i never stepped foot here. My therapist ignored my other mental health concerns and treated with meds i didnt need in third grade. This place left an awful ever lasting scar on my wellbeing. I dont recommend this place to anyone.

Other Forms of Payment

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.

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.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient
Outpatient rehab programs are designed to support clients who are exiting inpatient treatment and for those who prefer to remain in their own homes during active recovery. Clients in outpatient care typically integrate treatment into their ordinary daily routine, including work and school schedules. Evening, night, and weekend therapy sessions, recovery training courses, and other outpatient services are widely available to accommodate clients' needs. Many outpatient rehabs also offer medication assisted treatment (MAT), including medication induction and maintenance.
inpatient iconInpatient
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.

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 thumbnail image
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.

Clinical Services

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.

There are good things in everything bad. They helped me overcome my addiction but all this at the cost of spending the worst days of my life.

My daughter was placed here by a worker employed by the linn county department of human services. She went behind my back to obtain a certificate of need from a psychiatrist who had very little knowledge or interaction with my daughter. During her stay there were multiple incidences of her being refused to call me as a form of punishment. Although it was in her treatment plan to have her call me to help deescalate my child. They would often not answer my calls or return them for that matter. Because the department was involved I was treated as though I was not her mother and my opinion was not important. My daughter was also treated as more of a inmate then a mentally ill child. The psychiatrist on staff placed her on medications that did not help. This place is allowed to practice restraints as a form of subduing it's patients. Upon release and to this day its not uncommon for my daughter to ask for permission to use the bathroom, get something to eat or even a drink. It's ridiculous these are basic human rights. Nobody especially a child should have to ask permission for such things. This place needs to be shut down.
