About Prestera Center

The Prestera Center is located in Hurricane, West Virginia. They’re devoted to serving its community by inspiring growth and hope for wellness. Part of this involves treating addiction in adults. Prestera Center can provide a full continuum of services specially tailored to support your recovery needs.

Their network’s services can include long-term residential addiction treatment, a medication-assisted treatment (MAT) program, a law enforcement-assisted diversion program, a DUI safety and treatment program, and short-term residential treatment. Not all of these services are at the Hurricane location, but you can speak with the center to confirm which location best suits your needs.

Other services you might be interested in that this center offers include a men’s transitional and residential treatment program, a crisis stabilization unit for if you need immediate drug or alcohol detox care, and a women’s residential living and treatment program.

The DUI safety and treatment program uniquely partners with the West Virginia Division of Motor Vehicles. If your alcohol or drug problems have caused you to be in trouble with the law, this program may be hugely beneficial. It focuses on intervention, education, and treatment, where you will attend 18 hours of education over 16 weeks to learn more about the harms of substance addiction.

Past patients have highly recommended the long-term residential treatment program at Prestera. If you require more personalized care, you should consider enrolling in this program. It’s not available at the Hurricane location, but can be found at their centers in Charleston, Huntington, and Point Pleasant.

An available service is the law enforcement assisted diversion program. This program is best for those who need low level rehabilitation instead of incarceration. If you’re enrolled in this program you could avoid jail and instead be placed in a recovery program that meets your rehabilitation needs.

I must say., Gale MacAllister is such sn understanding soul. She approached my situation with an open ear. Her understanding and professional nature and knowledge stands out as a practitioner. Her assessment of my medical issues, she approached with careful care and took the time to listen and engage with me to get a unique perspective which is rear these days.

Whatever you do, avoid this place at all costs. No matter how bad you are suffering, they will make it worse. You deserve better. Find somewhere else.

Location

Accepted Insurance

Prestera Center works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

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.

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.

Military members, veterans, and eligible dependents have access to specific insurance programs that help them get the care they need. TRICARE and VA insurance can help you access low cost or no cost addiction and mental health treatment. Programs that accept military insurance often have targeted treatment focused on the unique challenges military members, veterans, and their families face.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient
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.
12-step icon12-Step
12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).
aftercare iconAftercare Support
Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

Treatments

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.

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

teen-program thumbnail image
Teen Program
Teen programs are designed to address the unique pressures teens face, pressures that can drive them to experiment with dangerous, addictive substances. They need programs that meet them exactly where they are and give them tools for long-term recovery. Therapy can help teenagers understand and work through underlying issues so they can reclaim the life ahead of them.
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.
seniors-program thumbnail image
Seniors Program
Nearly one million adults age 65 and older live with a substance use disorder. Treatment providers who specialize in senior care understand the social, psychological, and physical effects of aging and how they relate to recovery. They can help clients address particular challenges and risks they may face as they get older such as overdosing and medication interactions and dependencies.
program-for-men thumbnail image
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 thumbnail image
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 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.

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.

Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.

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.

Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.

Definitely lacks professionalism. I usually do get my meds though because I don t leave messages on the refill line. I leave a message at the office. They changed psychos on me and I m not sure about this one yet. I think the problem begins way up on the ladder. And that is the main problem. There s no one capable to begin fixing the problems. I m pretty sure it s run by the state somehow and that right there is the root of ALL the problems. What a shock. Right?

We ve been attending here for 2 years, the first year and a half was fine. Then I had a doctor change, and was supposed to be scheduled with a new one, this never ended up happening. It got to the point where I needed a refill on my medication so badly we had to beg for a refill. Thankfully I got a refill. That was in April. Radio silence from them, the never set me up with a new doctor, and because of this I have to go in as a new patient and go through all the hoops again just to get my medication I am prescribed, what a waste of time. If you plan on going here proceed with caution, they might do this to you too.

My daughter has been a patient of Prestera Center for over 10 years. The customer service of this office is lacking promptness. My daughter is on a controlled substance, so the refill must be called in every month on the refill line. Almost every month she has to leave multiple messages to the office because the medication refill is not taken care of. She has ADHD and must have her medication daily. In these instances of no refill and no call backs, she suffers mentally due to the incompetence of the staff or leadership of this office. Maybe it's because they have too many patients, not really sure. My daughter is a college graduate, works full time and needs her medication daily to aid in her attention disorder, without this medication she suffers. Again, Leadership is at blame of this type of service.

This place is a joke! You're just a number to them. Everytime I need to REFILL my prescriptions it take up to 2 weeks to hear back from them. (And don't get me started on the wait time for an apt... months!) I will be finding a new facility w better service and friendlier staff. DO NOT GO HERE!!
