Newport Academy Outpatient

About Newport Academy Outpatient

Newport Academy is located in Rockville, Maryland, and they provide services to teenagers and young adults who are struggling with addiction, dual diagnosis, and behavioral health conditions. This facility offers so much flexibility with the options available to help your child get the most appropriate level of care they need and will benefit from the most.

At this location, residential, partial hospitalization, and intensive outpatient care are offered to help your child begin and continue their journey of healing. What sticks out to me is the multitude of therapies they incorporate for your child to not only recover but also have fun in the process. Yoga, adventure, mixed martial arts, fitness, and equine assisted therapy will be part of your child’s individualized treatment plan.

Adventure therapy is outdoors in nature and includes hiking, climbing, surfing, and camping with trained mental health professionals. This incorporates holistic therapies such as experiential learning and cognitive behavioral therapy. These therapies help your child manage emotions, increase self awareness and develop communication skills and problem solving with their peers.

Yoga therapy connects movement, mindfulness, and meditation all in one. This helps with pain management, creates self confidence, reduces anxiety and provides relaxation. It can be done alone or with the family.

My child was here for partial inpatient and then intensive outpatient between October 2022 and Feb 2023.Pros: The staff were incredible. Young, but caring and truly excellent. They helped bring my child kindly and gently back from the brink. They helped them build skills and step back toward normal life. It's lasted, and my child is in a vastly different place than they were a year and a half ago. Both we and our child feel deep reverence for the staff and my child remembers their time there with the deepest appreciation.Cons: We did have a protracted billing issue with them. (Just resolved, a year after my kid wrapped.) When I finally got connected with a supervisor, she was amazing and worked tirelessly to sort out the account.

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.

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

Clients who are exiting detox or intensive inpatient treatment often enroll in outpatient rehab programs to ensure a robust continuity of care. Outpatient programs allow clients to remain in or return to their homes and workplaces while continuing to receive treatment, which typically includes addiction counseling and recovery-focused life skills training. Clients in opioid and/or alcohol recovery may also receive medication assisted treatment (MAT), including medication induction and maintenance, at an outpatient facility.

Inpatient

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.

Intensive Outpatient

Clients who are leaving inpatient rehab often choose to transition into an intensive outpatient program (IOP) to receive high-level support as they reintegrate into their home, workplace, and community. Intensive outpatient rehab also benefits those at risk of relapse. Clients typically participate in nine to 20 hours of treatment weekly, with modalities ranging from psychotherapy to addiction and recovery education. Many programs also provide medication assisted treatment (MAT) and complementary care, such as nutrition counseling, and acupuncture.

Aftercare Support

Clients receiving support in a rehab aftercare program typically partner with their case manager and care team to identify and access the services that best align with their recovery needs and goals. Rehab aftercare services are designed to evolve with clients' changing needs to promote their long-term sobriety. Care modalities are highly customized and may include a range of medical, mental health, and social service resources, including peer coaching, career counseling, and 12 step program induction.

Intervention Services

If you think a loved one needs help with substance abuse, but they are not seeking treatment, it may be time for a drug intervention in Maryland. Intervention services can help you with this effort. During the intervention, loved ones share how their addiction-related behavior has affected them and encourage the individual to get treatment. The intervention specialist helps facilitate the conversation and explain how treatment can help.

Medically Assisted Detox

Quitting drugs and alcohol on your own can cause uncomfortable and even dangerous side effects caused by the withdrawal process. In medically assisted detox, a team of licensed medical professionals will monitor your health, provide medication for potential withdrawal symptoms, and work to keep you safe and comfortable. Most people transition to an inpatient program or a maintenance program that uses medication assisted treatment (MAT).

Treatments

Treatment for drug and alcohol addiction often centers on improving mental health. Inpatient care is ideal for people who need closer monitoring while receiving therapeutic and mental health services. Standard therapies include group and individual counseling, relapse prevention education, coping skills training, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing and family support groups. With all critical therapies combined, there is a greater chance for improving mental health and achieving sustained recovery.

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

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.

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 in Maryland emphasizes your current life rather than what has happened in the past. Your therapist will help you develop methods to deal with current and future challenges so you can cope in healthy ways that don't involve substances.

Cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing techniques are often part of group therapy sessions. These are evidence based techniques that address thinking and behavioral patterns that trigger addictive behavior. Learning how to address these thought patterns can help create lasting change.

Individualized one on one therapy allows the therapist to focus on your specific challenges and strengths. Using a personalized approach enables the therapist to help you develop effective coping mechanisms and build a more stable and fulfilling substance free life.

Four key principles guide motivational interviewing. These are empathy, self efficacy, rolling with resistance, and developing discrepancy. These techniques allow the client to examine their motivations for change, identify discrepancies in their current situation and future goals, and feel empowered to make changes to reach their goals.

The focus of trauma therapy is to heal the emotional wounds that occurred when you witnessed or experienced a traumatic event. Therapy helps you process this trauma emotionally and mentally so you develop healthier coping skills and improve your quality of life.

Families in Maryland address the impact of addiction during family therapy. Your therapist fosters open communication between family members to help resolve conflicts and create a supportive environment. By improving relationships, you aid the recovery of the individual struggling with addiction.

Life skills may be as simple as preparing a meal or as complex as interpersonal communication. They cover a broad range, encompassing the core skills you'll need for a successful long term recovery. Rehab in Maryland focuses on helping you develop or re learn these skills so you can live a healthy, independent life in recovery.

Active addiction robs your body of nutrients. You need to restore a balanced diet to sustain recovery. Nutrition therapy helps you do this. You'll learn about the best foods for mental and physical health and how to establish healthier eating patterns in your life.

Engaging in recreational therapy during your addiction recovery provides you with a sense of accomplishment and joy. Art projects, physical fitness programs, and outdoor adventures help support your physical health, improve your mood, and build a supportive community that will help promote a sober lifestyle.

Christine Bozarth

I went through an extensive application process to get my son into Newport. After weeks of communicating with them, they rejected him because he has issues with aggression at school. This seems like a Catch 22 since I was trying to get him into Newport BECAUSE of the behavioral problems at school. They insisted they wouldn't leave me hanging and would send me all sorts of resources to help me. They never did. I called and asked for these magical resources and, again, they assured me they would send them. They did not. Basically, keep in mind that this is a private company with their pocketbooks first in their minds.

During intake they never interviewed the patient and the person making the placement decision was a third person reviewer. They made a recommendation that is absurdly inappropriate and it has been almost a month and I am still waiting for a call from a clinician to discuss it. This is in violation of our patient rights and I will be submitting a formal complaint with the Maryland Behavioral Health Administration. Although I have yet to speak with a clinician the non-clinical staff has been very respectful and understanding.

A great treatment center for adolscent!My son has just completed a 2-month PHP program here and returned his high school life recently. Before that, he suspended his school life for one and half year, feeling anxious, depressing, and with no self-control each day. At first he felt unhappy to be settled in such a program, he also met many problems there time after time. But Northstar has the magic to change him, who later was reluctant to leave each day, and bid farewell to everyone the last day. He becomes more active, adjustable, and less anxious in most cases, and be hopeful to face the new school life.His primary therapist gave us the most powerful and effective guidance, who was trusted deeply by my son. She instructed him to solve each problem and learn to solve it by himself. the other staff are also quite professional, who always provided him effective instruction, great patience and warm response which made him aware, relaxed or amused.We really value the special period in Northstar, from when on my son's life will be changed dramatically.

NorthStar Academy is a FANTASTIC program! The leadership and staff are so well trained, patient and family focused, and compassionate and effective in their approaches. In addition to an impressive variety of therapy types (art, music, pet, individual, and group), the family support (individual family therapy, group family therapy, and parent support group) is invaluable. Our family is so grateful for NSA,. They have changed our lives for the better!

I was never as suicidal as I was when I was here. A complete money grab and scam, leaving children worse off than they were before. DON'T GO HERE!
