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

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.

Sober Living Homes

Most sober living homes in Maryland are located in peaceful, quiet neighborhoods. These private residences are designed to offer a low-stress but structured environment where residents can focus on their ongoing recovery efforts and receive support to maintain sobriety. Several individuals, all of whom are in recovery, share the halfway house. This type of communal living helps decrease relapse, increase employment rates, and helps individuals hone their recovery skills.

24-Hour Clinical Care

For intensive-level rehab treatment, 24-hour clinical care in Maryland is an essential tool. Medical staff are available around the clock to supervise the process, which involves cleansing the body of toxins. Close supervision is necessary due to the potential risks of withdrawal symptoms. Medical experts on-site are available to prescribe medications and other forms of treatment to address these symptoms and ensure a safe detox process.

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).

Treatment

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 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.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy

During dialectical behavior therapy sessions, you'll review the challenges you faced the previous week and the feelings you experienced during those times. You and your therapist will engage in problem solving, discussing how you can handle those situations in the future for a better outcome. This involves keeping a diary throughout the week to track your emotions.

Equine Therapy

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

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.

Motivational Interviewing

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.

Trauma Therapy

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.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) in Maryland is a trauma focused therapy that uses bilateral stimulation like eye movements, auditory tones, and tapping to reprocess and integrate disturbing memories from a traumatic event. This evidence based method reduces the symptoms of post traumatic stress disorder and fosters overall emotional health and well being.

Family Therapy

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.

Life Skills

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.

Creative Arts Therapy

The goal of creative arts therapy is to help you express complicated emotions or work through difficult situations. This happens through self expressive activities such as dance, drama, music, or art. The treatment provides a safe setting to process emotions and understand yourself better.

Experiential Therapy

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

Only some of the staff were good. Everyone else, including the director of the location was unresponsive to requests for extra therapy sessions and other matters. They fired the initial therapist for being unresponsive and uninvested. They never did anything to try and make up my son being behind in treatment. At the end of the 60 days , it seemed like they couldnt wait to get rid of him. We would send numerous emails and communication. It took me 2 weeks after contacting numerous staff via email, phone and in family therapy yo get my son his communication. Only received two responses from the director in 60 days. Staff would instigate with kids in treatment and say things "out of pocket". Kids felt triggered, unsafe and inclined to self-harm. Lack of communication to the family was a major concern the entire 60 day treatment. Had to reach out to Admissions team (which was excellent) to even get acknowledged most of the time. Shout out to the Admissions team for being the best part. Do not recommend this location to anyone. Can't speak for all Sandstone locations, but this one is a DO NOT trust this place with your children and your family treatment here.We sent our son to a different program after this and he did extremely well. He felt supported, cared for and safe in the new environment. It is clear that the staff at this location is the problem - starting at the top.

My son went here (Crownsville) last May- June 2023 and it was a horrible experience for both me as a parent and him. I don't write reviews often, but I think other parents need to hear this before sending their lived ones here.1) Communication was poor, at best. You couldn't get anyone to answer the phone or return calls. I sent daily emails that were supposed to be printed and provided to him, but he would only get them sporadically. They were supposed to be in touch with his high school to have his work transferred, and the whole academic program was a joke. The kids found loopholes to get on the internet and communicate with friends.2) Safety was less than a 1 star rating. My son had his chain/ crucifix taken from his neck by another child and while the staff knew who did it, they refused to get it back for almost 2 weeks and ignored my pleas stating they can't touch the other child who was WALKING AROUND WEARING IT. This child threatened my son and he made him feel very unsafe. Everytime my son called on the allotted days, he pleaded with me stating the environment was not good for his mental health and he felt unsafe. He was influenced to choke himself out until he passed out which is apparently what they teach each other to do. He injured himself when he hit the cement and when they called I was told, "we don't think he has a concussion". They were not being monitored while outside or this would not have happened. All of this happened in the first 72 hour period when I wasn't allowed to speak to him .3) Staff- understaffed and had one staff give my son the WRONG DOSAGE of his ADHD medication (double). They lacked compassion, with exception of a limited few, but for the most part were unimpressive, especially the Administrator.4) Runaways- every week kids would runaway and as my son described it, "was chaos and not a peaceful environment", which wasn't conducive to his treatment. Police and fire had to come, and it was very disruptive.5) Outings- they cancelled frequently due to staff shortages. This was something they looked forward to and the 5 weeks my son was there, maybe went 2-3 times.6) Individual therapy- I didn't receive any communication from his assigned therapist for the first 2 weeks. Nothing. They were supposed to check in with parents and send weekly updates and this didn't happen until I demanded it, after only finding out who to call from other parents.7) Inappropriate sexual conduct between teens- the house was coed and it was common for "hook-ups" to happen in the bathroom. This was very hushed and only admitted by one staff member that "it has happened", when I questioned it.The only positive thing I will say is that there was a parent group meeting, and even though communication on the timing and call-in link was lacking, when it was successful, it was nice to hear from other parents about their experiences.Overall, if you want a peaceful, nurturing environment for your teen to get better, DO NOT send him/her here. I waited for a year to write this review to see if my feelings about the facility would change or if there were any positive seeds planted or impact on my son. It made him worse: insecure, fearful, angry, mean (he had to learn to defend himself and develop a thick skin while there). He was never violent before Sandstone, but got in an argument and punched my daughter in the face the first day he was home. That was very uncharacteristic of him. I sent my troubled, but kind, and good spirited son to Sandstone and a different person came home. Stay far away from Sandstone.

if you want your child to get better, don't send them here. i was feeling unsafe because i was threatened by another patient they didn't care i was crying the whole time they wouldn't do anything about the way i was feeling. i told them that i feel unsafe and they told me other houses also don't feel safe and that we're the last house the patient was sent to and i was threatened and they didn't care. i slept in the hall way the whole night because i was so scared and they didn't care they neglected my needs some of the staff were so rude and insensitive and not empathetic at all, i was vomiting because i wasn't feeling good and the nurse didn't care she told me there was nothing to do about it. i have insomnia and it's hard for me to sleep so when i would feel sleepy finally they wouldn't let me go to bed because they were "short on staff" which they always are and then i wouldn't be able to sleep because i should sleep the moment i feel sleepy. the food was horrible literally prison food. i was only eating one bag of chips everyday because that was the only thing edible there the food is disgusting and all the other patients agree. me and 2 other girls were crying because we felt very unsafe and they made us sleep in the hall way. very unprofessional and insensitive if you want your child to be better, send them somewhere safe because this place is not safe. and my mom and my family were sending me a bunch of emails which they never gave me. my mom would call everyday to check if i ate and they would lie and said i did even tho i didn't. this place is horrible i'm traumatized for life.

Sandstone was probably one of the better residentials i was in but that s not saying much. I ve been in residential 3 times and while i was at Sandstone they treated me horribly i was one of the only 18 year olds and i expect at least a little respect but i recieved little to none. Of course like any rehab/residential there was good staff but majority of the staff were assholes who didn t care about your wellbeing whatsoever they would agree to listen and help but when you asked for basic needs like moving to a different house they ignored you or said they d talk to admit to which you get no response so you re stuck in the same drama filled house with people who provoke you 24/7 with no remorse and the staff doesn t do shit about it. They claim they care when all they care about was your money. When i was there i saw at LEAST 15 people runaway because they felt unsafe or unheard. I also saw a client stab two people with a pen they kept from school as well as somebody get slapped and jumped by multiple people. When i decided to refuse to go back to my original house they decided to kick me out of the program all together which to be honest i was ecstatic about because of how horrible my time was mind you i was only there about 2 weeks. There was more drama here than any other mental health facility i ve been to and it was dragged out by all the clients trying to get everyone to turn on each other. Overall i rate sandstone a 3/10 they definitely need to improve but Carmen, Maiya, Ashley, Autumn, and Edwin were the only tolerable staff fuck admin and whoever is the higher ups that make all the decisions were because they don t listen for anything i feel like the BHT s and nurses should be able to make decisions on our houses and groups since they are the ones watching us all day not admin but do with this what you will.

I was admitted to sandstone october of 2022 and left at the very end of november 2022. My stay was cut short due to my own actions, i was not in a good headspace and was a danger to myself, they noticed this and took the proper steps. i ended up leaving sandstone to go to a higher level facility, but that takes courage for an organization to admit that I needed more help than they were set up to provide. The nurses, BHT s and therapists there were amazing, some even life changing. while my stay at sandstone didn t go as smoothly as i had hoped, i learned more skills and life lessons there than any other rehab around the country. sandstone truly helped me grow as a person, and i am grateful everyday for it. I would definitely recommend this rehab for you or your teen, they are there to treat your individual needs, it s houses so you don t feel so institutionalized, helpful groups all day, great staff!!

My daughter recently spent 60 days in Sandstone teens rehab. It was hard for her especially in the beginning, but now we both glad that she did it. She changed so much, we understand each other better now and Sandstone gave her instruments to deal with her depression and cravings. Family session were a great help and eye opening for me. I am grateful to professionals in Sandstone for the hope we now have.
