Levels of Care

Outpatient

This program focuses on education, self-diagnosis, defense mechanisms, development of a sober support network, and relapse prevention. The series typically runs for 26 weeks (if clinically appropriate) for adults who have experienced some negative consequences from their substance abuse. As a cornerstone of Project Chesapeake’s overall mission, they’re proud to offer this service to adults in need. Participation requires specific individualized treatment plan objectives be met prior to discharge.

Intensive Outpatient

In some cases, traditional outpatient care is not appropriate for individuals with more severe chemical dependency problems. When this is the case, they offer their Intensive Outpatient program, their most intense level of outpatient counseling. This service is a unique combination of group and individual counseling lasting a total of nine or more hours per week. Intensive Outpatient works to stabilize the client and to begin teaching the tools of recovery. In order to better accommodate the needs of the client, Intensive Outpatient groups are offered in the morning and the evening. This allows the client to access treatment while still maintaining family and work schedules and meeting obligations that solidify behavior change, thus breaking the cycle of substance abuse.

Treatment

Alcoholism

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.

Drug Addiction

Once a person has become addicted to a substance, drug rehab in Maryland is often necessary to overcome that addiction. These programs provide the tools individuals need to manage the physical, mental, and emotional issues involved and begin a successful recovery journey.

Mental Health and Substance Abuse

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

Clinical Services

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

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.

Group Therapy

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.

Individual Therapy

This is a process through which clients work one-on-one with a trained counselor, in a safe, caring, and confidential environment to explore their feelings, beliefs, or behaviors, work through challenging or influential memories, identify aspects of their lives that they would like to change, better understand themselves and others, set personal goals, and work toward desired change. People seek counseling for a wide variety of reasons, from coping with major life challenges or childhood trauma, to dealing with substance abuse and simply desiring personal growth and greater self-knowledge.

The Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) is a non-profit organization that specifically accredits rehab organizations. Founded in 1966, CARF's, mission is to help service providers like rehab facilities maintain high standards of care.

My boyfriend was a client here for what was supposed to be 6 months, they not only pushed him out at least a month early, but he's been calling for a week now trying to get a form from the doctor there so he can continue the meds he was prescribed and Stephanie won't call him back, he's left multiple messages, he's texted her, he's had other employees reach out to her, she hasn't even had the doctor herself reach out because there is no direct line to reach the doctor. How can they call themselves a treatment center if they just send people out without the help they ask for. Or complete them early because they don't want to deal with them anymore. This place is trash I wouldn't recommend them to my worst enemy. If zero stars was a thing, that's what I'd give this place.

All of the positive reviews on here are from employees and their friends pretending to be patients. Ray works in the office, and jon is his friend. At least one of the girls that left a five-star review works there as well. They do this because it's a sketchy place and they have nothing but bad reviews. Complete waste of time. Made an appointment as a new patient to help get treatment for my ADHD. Met with the nurse practitioner and explained I have a history with addiction so I wanted something non-stimulant specifically requested strattera she said there was no problem, she would put in the prescription for me after talking with her for about an hour going over my diagnosis and my symptoms and everything. Got a call a couple days later saying because I have a history with addiction she was refusing to prescribe me anything. I tried explaining to the office staff what was going on and got literally no help. Then I found out all my future appointments have been canceled with no heads up and I was more or less asked to never come back. Crazy

Project Chesapeake is a great IOP/OP treatment option. Not only does the staff genuinely care about you, they offer multiple services under one roof. I opted into this program for longer than required (crazy right?) and will continue to utilize their services regardless of my OP completion. I will refer my loved ones, friends, and/or acquaintances to Project Chesapeake if need be. Thank you for everything you guys do and keep up the good work! :)

Great staff and a great service to the community. Meeting Ray for the first time may have been one of the best days of my life!!

Today I celebrate 1 yr any 1 month sober; I really don't think it would have been possible without the help from everyone at Project Chesapeak. They have always gone above and beyond there obligations to me as there client. Especially Ray, who always took the time to listin, give advice when I needed it, and even arranged for his girlfriend to take me to a meeting. I would recommend Project Chesapeak to anyone that's seeking treatmemt!!

Can t give 0 stars or I would. This place is an insurance scam and the treatment quality is so beyond low I don t even know how they re JCAHO certified. First of all their IOP and OP is a video call with all the patients and one therapist Nobody has their camera on and more than half the patients don t even talk the whole group. You could literally sign in, keep your camera off, and do whatever during group. Which okay, you get out of treatment what you put into it. My boyfriend was doing their IOP, attending every session and reporting for urine test 2 times a week. That s the gist of the program. No one on one therapy, you aren t even assigned a therapist. You just sit in group online with other patients and pass the time. There is no actual therapeutic value, substance use disorder education, treatment plan, or goal. As long as you re logged in and they can bill insurance they don t care about anything else. My boyfriend is in the drug court program through the state of Maryland which requires an IOP so that s how he ended up going into this facility. Like I had stated, he was doing everything he was required to do. He failed a test at drug court one day after being passing the previous day and then passed his next test. Drug court ask Project Chesapeake to refer him to a higher level of care. Ray who runs project Chesapeake said he was clean at the point and didn t meet criteria for inpatient and it would be insurance fraud to put him on a higher level of care than he medically needed. Drug court then threatened to stop referring people to him, which meant he would loose the insurance kickbacks from whoever would ve been referred if he did not figure out a way for him to go into treatment. 3 weeks later Ray got him a bed in a Project Chesapeake inpatient. He didn t mean criteria the day after failing a drug test because he wasn t using and wasn t failing test but somehow met criteria 3 weeks later. Those 3 weeks he continued doing his iop meetings, going to AA meetings, doing step work, passing all his drug test, he even set up an appointment for an opioid blocking shot as a safety net. So whatever lies Ray spun the the insurance company to get them to cover inpatient is considered insurance fraud. He didn t stand up for his patient who was doing everything right for his recovery, he gave him the message that it didn t matter how well he was doing, project Chesapeake couldn t afford to loose their main referral source. He had no problem uprooting someone s life, making him leave his 4 kids with no one else to care for them besides myself, who works and goes to school with full time and and my boyfriends mother who s sick on an oxygen tank or social services. It doesn t matter what type of therapeutic progress or steps in recovery you are taking. If the payout is not high enough they make it worth their while.
