I want to stress how grateful I am for this place. I used heroin for years and thought that it was my only future. I tried any and every way to get off it and nothing worked. Finally I found Project and slowly but surely worked my way to where I am now. I ve been clean 2 years and going strong! If you read Champ s review, you should know that I felt a similar way when I was using. I hated anyone that tried to help me. I saw them as a threat and an obstacle to my next fix. When you re down that far you ll say and do anything. You see the people trying to help you the most as your biggest enemy. I relapsed a few years ago while I was a patient here, and they gave me chance after chance before they finally decided I needed a higher level of care. I was livid! I had to go detox at a hospital and do treatment elsewhere, but nonetheless they still took me back when I was ready. Today, I m so damn glad and thankful they made that decision. In fact, there were a few other times that I just stopped going and had to go through the intake process every time, but they never denied me. They don t give up on their clients. You would have to have done something dangerous or threatening to be told you can t come back. I know that Bret (my case worker/therapist without the official title ) has been my savior. He s professional, genuine, dedicated and compassionate. He never gave up on me when everyone else understandably did and he had every reason to. Bret truly cares about his clients. Because of past trauma, I don t like to be in a room alone with an older man, but I don t feel like that with him. His office is a safe environment and so is he. I ve never been treated poorly by any of the staff. They ve all been kind and professional. I have to give a shout out to Malik at the front desk. He s been there the entire time I ve been going to Project and I can totally see why they keep him. He is very good at and serious about his job. He not only does it well, but I can tell he genuinely cares about each of us. He says hi to us individually, asks how we re doing and engages in healthy conversation, every time! Thank you for always making me feel welcome and safe, Malik! I could go on and on with things to say about Project Reality, but I think what I ve said so far has shown how grateful I am for this place. Thank you for saving my life, Project!

Accepted Insurance

Project Reality 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

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.

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.

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 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.
inpatient iconInpatient
Addiction treatment at an inpatient rehab center is significantly more intensive than outpatient and community-based care. Clients remain at the facility for the duration of their program, though many centers offer supervised group excursions. Inpatient treatment typically consists of extensive psychotherapy, often including group and family counseling. Many programs also prioritize addiction education and recovery-focused life skills training. Holistic therapies, such as yoga, art therapy, EMDR, and meditation, are commonly available as well.
intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient
Clients often choose to enter intensive outpatient programs (IOP) when they exit inpatient rehab. Others turn to IOP as an alternative to hospitalization. Intensive outpatient rehabs offer high-level care for clients in early recovery and those at an elevated risk of relapse, typically requiring them to commit to between nine and 20 hours of treatment per week. The most prevalent treatment modalities include psychotherapy, recovery education, medication assisted treatment (MAT), and holistic therapies, such as meditation.
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.

When you enter a drug rehab in Utah, the process usually involves four stages: treatment initiation, early abstinence, maintaining abstinence, and advanced recovery. Treatment methods can rely on medications, counseling, or both, in either an outpatient or inpatient setting.

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

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.
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

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.

During individual therapy, men and women in Utah work with their therapists to build healthier daily habits and create coping strategies to manage stress. These are two components necessary for sustained sobriety and improved overall health.

Accreditations

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) is a branch of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Established in 1992 by congress, SAMHSA's mission is to reduce the impact of substance abuse and mental illness on American's communities.

I recommended choosing a different treatment center. THIS IS THE ONLY TREATMENT CENTER that will use your daily dose of medicine (methadone) against you as punishment. By refusing your daily dosage it becomes morally and ethically WRONG and it should be illegal. A doctor prescribes you the daily medication therefore no staff member or counselor should be able to take it away from or alter a patients usage of it. The only justifiable reason would be is if a patients health is in danger due to recent drug or alcohol usage. Then and only then should refusing a patients daily dosage of medicine be refused. Never, ever as punishment or control. In fact, in my opinion, it should be illegal for anyone to refuse to give you your daily dose of medicine especially if the clinic is responsible for distributing a patients medicine.There are many other treatment centers to choose from (even if you only have Medicare)

If you want help go somewhere else I was going to the Murry office and doing well then I lost my car and got covid had to start over and got stuck at the salt lake clinic where not only was I not given the help I was told was available but I was also ignored about everything I said I needed to recover and when I was a little tiered on morning and didn't have time to wait to do a breathalyzer because my 70 year old father w was waiting for me and had an appointment he had to get to not only would they not give me one more chance but because they wouldn't one of the people I convinced to go in stopped going and died of an infection a week later because they ignored him too please don't waist your time go to the Bart program

Project Reality helped me help myself, and I've now been clean for 15 years. It isn't always easy, there are rules to follow but if you are willing to combine the medication with therapy it will work for you. Thank you Project Reality.
