About Thunderbird Treatment Center

Thunderbird Treatment Center is a CARF accredited private rehab in Glendale, Arizona. They provide integrated outpatient addiction care for adults. You’ll have access to individualized treatment with essential tools for recovery.

They take a comprehensive approach to care, blending counseling and medication assisted treatment. With counseling, you’ll receive nonjudgmental support as you work through the underlying causes of addiction and change them. They offer medications, like Suboxone and methadone, to assist in long term withdrawal and craving management. This harmonious approach can promote sustained recovery.

Previous clients who had good experiences reported wonderful staff interactions and a clean, comfortable facility. Unsatisfied clients described unprofessional encounters with staff and feeling a lack of concern for their wellbeing.

As always, recovery looks different for everyone, and what works for someone else may not work for you. Be sure to consider multiple treatment centers before making your decision.

Medical briefcase icon 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

Many addiction recovery centers base their treatment modalities on the 12 step program model, and those in treatment often transition to community-based programs. These programs can also be effective for clients who choose not to enter rehab. Traditionally, 12 step meetings are designed to provide intensive peer support whenever it is needed. In addition to group meetings and peer sponsorship, participants "work the steps" to achieve recovery through a systematic healing of the mind, body, and spirit.

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.

alcohol iconAlcoholism

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.

drugs iconDrug Addiction

Drug rehab in Arizona is the process of treating individuals who are dependent on a particular addictive drug. Because addiction is complex, this treatment typically includes a variety of interventions that address the many physical and emotional issues involved.

check iconDual Diagnosis

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.

opium iconOpioid Addiction

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-abuse iconSubstance Abuse

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.

inpatient-file iconCognitive Behavioral Therapy

Also known as CBT, cognitive behavioral therapy in Arizona is one of the most common types of psychotherapy. It offers a structured method of counseling that effectively treats substance use disorder and dual diagnosis disorders.

intervention iconGroup 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.

mental-health iconIndividual Therapy

Individual therapy for drug and alcohol addiction includes focused attention on the unique challenges that trigger addictive behavior. During individual therapy sessions, you have a safe space in which to discuss stressors and emotional struggles. Therapy fosters trust and open communication that helps develop personalized strategies to overcome addiction.

desert iconMotivational Interviewing

The goal of motivational interviewing in Arizona is to enhance your confidence in your ability to make changes in your life. It encourages you to commit to change and plan for the process of making those changes that will allow you to reach your goals.

house-medical iconTrauma Therapy

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.

couples-therapy iconCouples Therapy

Residents of Arizona who are experiencing relationship problems may benefit from couples therapy. This form of psychotherapy helps couples express their feelings, resolve conflicts, and increase intimacy and affection.

family iconFamily 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.

They don't care about you, they just give you some prescriptions and some medicines, and that's all.

Good clinic. Unless you want to get clean.and Just don't ask them for help with alcohol withdrawals when you're shaking really bad and your blood pressure is 213/120 because you haven't had a drink for19 hours and you're trying to quit drinking (after you've been drinking for 3 weeks straight because your son got murdered) you want to quit because your liver is failing; they'll with hold your dose that day. Theywon't offer to check your blood pressure or anything. Meanwhile, my car blew a gasket on the way there.

This place is a really nice safe clean and professional environment! They go out of their way to help you as long as your honest with yourself and them about your addiction! It s a pleasure to come in and be greeted by such caring individuals! The ones that get a bad rap are truly, nice and caring people! I think if you ve been in this field as long as them you have seen and heard more then your share of the nastiest people can be especially when your going through withdrawals! Their there to help not be your punching bag! Everyone has bad days we re only human, but if you can apologize for your actions that shows your truly there for help, not just a place holder til u get your next fix!Everyone I have dealt with there are truly great individuals and each help out in the best way they can! I want to give a special thank you to Heather, she has been a great listener without judgement, offers great advice and has given me strength through those tough times! It s a pleasure to see her every morning with a smile on her face! She has saved me many times from roller coasting into a dark hole she will never know how much her advice and just plain girly gossiping in the morning has made my day a little brighter! Thank you Heather!THANK YOU!! EVERYONE!!(May god bless and protect you all!!)

For the most part, TTC is staffed by nice, not unintelligent people and what s great, they are now taking Medicare in lieu of cash payment. Easygoing, friendly, no-hassle (for the most part) service and no long lines. Easy-in/easy-out! Clean, safe & located in a not bad neighborhood. If one stays clean, keeps on showing this to the staff then you ll get take-homes and that is a great thing- it is not fun to have to go everyday! If you have a week or two of THs you can go about your life and just go back to get more when you need to. They are a little short staffed, so the counseling part is not a big thing here, but they do have a couple of really nice people with whom one can chat if one has an issue for which they d like to get help and you don t need to make an appointment; they re usually free unless they happen to be dealing with another client , but that isn t too often. I know there s some who get down on methadone clinics - they ll say oh, those places don t care about you; they only want to get money & try to keep you from ever tapering down in order to get off it &, well that may be near the truth for some clinics but if you really are ready to start coming down they don t dissuade you or discourage you. They do the titrating in a consistent- i.e., they work with you to set up a schedule- and safe, necessarily slow fashion. If it seems obvious to the nurse or whomever you talk with about this that you don t seem to be ready to get off methadone yet they will tell you so but if you feel that you really do want to come off it and insist they re not going to force you to stay on: that s ridiculous! One last thing about Thunderbird: the clinic is in a nice, safe, clean neighborhood not like, say BHS , which I checked out when I moved here in 2017. That place was not the kind of environment in which I d want to be when staying clean and just maintaining on methadone; shabby inside and out. But at TTC they keep a clean shop & you don t see anyone hanging around in or outside in the parking lot. Very quiet, nobody talking much and never have I seen anyone yelling or otherwise complaining about hey, I was before him or something about whatever. Great staff. Not a lot of them but if you have an issue you want to talk about you can get with someone.Best methadone clinic I ve seen.

The Staff @ T.T.C. are very good people they for the most part care about your sobriety. Craig and Heather are the best will go out of there way to help you. Every Treatment center has its Pros & Cons I would say if you want to get clean and you can afford to come out of pocket 60-65 dollars a week this is the perfect place. In & out quickly open early and take home privlages if you continue to test clean. I would and have recommended this place to others.

I'm all for any place that helps others recover from their addictions. The staff here are all really nice and understanding. This is a CASH clinic and I'm not sure if they even take any forms of insurance. But when you think about it, it's cheaper than the illegal drug you're addicted to and you aren't charged more just because you need more medication. It morphs from illegal to legal and drug addiction morphs into prescribed medication. Say you were referred by me!

Kelly, Heather, Lisa, Craig, Gino... Thank you all for helping not only myself but my loved ones. It's astonishing that I can be a real person once again. In addition, those of you who do not like Kelly, haven't truly taking the time to talk to her.
