If you have the option to get help elsewhere I certainly would.I first started treatment there after a hospitalization in 2017, I had the same psychiatrist for a while but my therapist changed regularly. About the time I'd start to make progress and feel comfortable the therapist would leave and I'd be given a new one, most of them weren't especially helpful to me anyways but the turn over didn't help. Towards the end I'd have a new psychiatrist/psych nurse every appointment.In 2022 after everything shutting down with a miserable lack of communication I was in a group session that was actually finally helping me a lot, the therapist leading it left and wasn't replaced immediately then apparently was and didn't call me to join it. I then found out I was supposed to have an assessment annually, which hadn't been done since 2017. I would have to come for first come first serve walk in hours to get the assessment before they'd let me join the group again.I came in for walk ins, at the same time as one other person, waited a couple hours and then was told that I had to fill out paperwork they didn't bother to give me when I checked in, so had to go sit back down in the lobby. Filled it out and watched other people be called back skipping me for a couple more hours before I handed the papers to the receptionist and told her to inform the therapist, who was the same person supposed to be running the group I was to join, that I wasn't waiting any longer. That same day I had tried to make an appointment with yet another new psych nurse and was told they'd have to call me because the computer was down. I didn't get a call back from either the therapist or the receptionist, until a couple weeks later when I got a message "reminding" me I had a psych appointment for the next day when I had a conflict. That was the moment I decided I was done with Freedom House doing more damage than help for me. If I had still been in crisis at that moment I hate to think what would have happened to me. They never called me again. I weaned myself off my SSRI and I will only be setting foot there again to make sure I'm not counted as a patient anymore because they won't pick up there phone to even tell me that much.TLDR, disorganized, rude, not good support network. Avoid if able.

Do not come here if you are a woman! In the fall of 20201 I came to detox from alcohol. I was targeted and eventually trafficked by a woman who "hunts" there named E.B. (Elizabeth Bland). She is dangerous, and they keep letting her in. This is NOT a safe place for women!Also, during the 2.5 weeks I was there one woman died of an OD and 3 others collapsed and were taken away via ambulance. There is no oversight, no medical training and no therapy; We literally watched Netflix all day everyday . Many people snuck in drugs and alcohol. The medical oversight is non-existent.The food is really good, though and the kitchen staff is super kind.But again, if you are a woman avoid this place at all costs!! It is a hunting ground.

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.

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.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient
Clients who are exiting detox or stepping down from intensive inpatient care typically transition directly into outpatient treatment. Outpatient programs are designed to allow clients to either re-enter or remain in their communities while receiving robust, personalized care. Many facilities offer evening, night, or weekend services to accommodate clients' home and work schedules. The most common outpatient treatment modalities include psychotherapy, recovery-focused life skills training, and medication assisted treatment (MAT).
inpatient iconInpatient
Clients receiving treatment at an inpatient rehab facility are typically in early recovery or are at heightened risk of relapse. Clients in inpatient care remain at the facility for the duration of their program, enabling them to focus solely on their recovery. Inpatient treatment typically involves extensive psychotherapy, often including group and family counseling as well as one-on-one sessions. Recovery-focused life skills education is another common service. Many rehabs also offer evidence-based holistic therapies.
intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient
Intensive outpatient programs (IOP) evolve with clients' changing needs and are often well-suited for clients exiting inpatient rehab and those at an increased relapse risk. These programs typically involve between nine and 20 hours of treatment weekly, with the intensity and frequency of care decreasing as clients stabilize. Most intensive outpatient rehabs integrate a variety of treatment modalities to maintain a high level of individualized care. Services generally include counseling, recovery education, and medication assisted treatment (MAT).
medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox
Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal.

Treatments

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

There are many types of drug rehab in North Carolina. To receive treatment for addiction, you can choose from many inpatient and outpatient programs. Often, participants start with detox and work through a full continuum of care that continues with ongoing support for long-term recovery.

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.

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

Programs

young-adult-program thumbnail image
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.
adult-program thumbnail image
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.

Clinical Services

You usually develop a strong bond with your therapist during individual therapy sessions. This helps you explore the underlying causes of your substance use in a safe and nonjudgmental environment. Therapists help you develop effective coping strategies you can use in the community and improve your self awareness so you understand your addiction triggers.

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.

During couples therapy in North Carolina, a psychologist helps you and your partner resolve problems that are occurring in your relationship. This licensed therapist uses talk therapy to help you both work through challenges together. The process involves learning new skills to better handle conflict and life issues.

Family therapy sessions address the emotional toll that addiction has had on the family unit and individual members. Therapists work with families to develop better coping strategies, which in turn create a stable environment for their loved one's recovery process.

I wish I could give a 0- star rating. The lady Jennifer that runs it, helps CPS traffic kids. Literally a court ordered program. Disgusting. Hope she gets what she has coming to her. YOUR KIDS ARE NOT SAFE THERE!

If you are serious about your recovery and want a team of people to support you then this is an amazing place to help you get your life together. Most of the staff are in recovery themselves so they know all to well how real the struggles are. If you're not too serious about your recovery then they will still help push you towards sobriety but you get what you put into it (as in many things in life). I know this place has probably saved my life. More than once. I will forever be grateful and highly suggest Freedom House to anyone struggling with their own addiction and/or mental health issues.

The director I think it is, he s a old skinny tall guy, the guy is very disrespectful, I was very offended by the way he treated me as if he was better than me and I was nothing, would love to give him a pop knot, and theirs a short black old lady nurse with a Afro that s worked their for years and she is very impolite, I take 3 subutex at one time and it takes 5 minutes for one pill to dissolve under the tongue so since I m taking three pills it will take 15 minutes, she told me to make it dissolve in 5 minutes or she wasn t going to give me my medication nomore so I had to make it dissolve and I didn t get the full effect from the medication because she was so lazy and in a hurry to clock out

A patient cured is a customer lost. This place is only about the money and not recovery. Go someplace else

Griff whatever his title is didn't introduce himself at first. Blew my son for being curious about a girl he met. Told him to go to the ER. No doctors on call. Director not very good at getting things done. They only give a prescription for a month so your locked in to coming back every month. Was given a very expensive prescription. Nurses and doctors keep changing. Just sucks.
