About Wedgwood Christian Services

Wedgwood Christian Services, in Grand Rapids, Michigan, is a faith-based drug and alcohol rehab for adolescents and adults. They offer dual diagnosis care, medication assisted treatment (MAT), residential programming for adolescents, and intensive outpatient (IOP), general outpatient (OP), and aftercare programming for youth and adults.

Their residential program allows adolescents to focus on their recovery in a highly structured and supportive environment. Adults and teens in outpatient care receive personalized, high-level care while remaining in their home, workplace, school, and community. Medical and mental health assessments, personalized care planning, and case management are included for all clients. Clients also engage in individual, group, and family counseling drawing on proven modalities, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and motivational interviewing. The program promotes clients’ sustained sobriety through robust, age-specific life skills training addressing topics such as coping, wellness, self-care, and relapse prevention.

Their aftercare services ensure a complete continuum of care aligned with clients’ evolving needs and may include step-down support, 12 step program facilitation, and referrals for additional medical, mental health, and social service programs.

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.

intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient

Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs.

aftercare iconAftercare

Clients engaged in a rehab aftercare program have already completed high-level treatment and have begun to develop essential recovery skills. Rehab aftercare services are designed to support clients' sustained sobriety as they reintegrate into their home, workplace, and community. Case managers, care teams, and clients design the customized service portfolio that will best support the client's long-term sobriety. Clients may receive peer coaching, 12 step program induction, vocational training, and relapse prevention services.

sober-living iconSober Living Homes

Sober living homes in Michigan act as a bridge between an intensive level of care and the freedom of independent living. The primary rule in every sober living home is to stay sober. If a resident breaks this rule, they can be evicted. However, this environment is designed to prevent relapse, with mutual support, 12-step meetings, a structured schedule, and drug screenings.

heart-hands iconIntervention Services

During a drug intervention in Michigan, family, friends, and colleagues share in their own words how a person's substance abuse has affected their lives. An intervention must be carefully planned, with the goal of encouraging the individual to get treatment for their addiction. Many rehab programs offer intervention services to help families prepare for this confrontation and guide them through the recovery process.

Heart icon Treatment

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 Michigan provides personalized treatment to help individuals break this cycle and regain control of their lives. Treatment methods are used in various levels of care, including inpatient rehab, partial hospitalization programs, intensive outpatient programs, and standard outpatient treatment.

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.

mental-health iconMental 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.

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.

inpatient-file iconCognitive 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.

dialectical iconDialectical Behavior Therapy

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers more intensive, skills-based counseling for adolescents and adults with patterns of self-harm behaviors, self-destructive behaviors, overwhelming emotions, and/or significant conflicts in relationships. This 6-month program involves participation in both individual DBT therapy and DBT skills group each week.

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

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.

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

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.

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.

life-skills iconLife Skills

To maintain a healthy and productive life, you need certain life skills. They help you make good decisions and build good relationships. Because they are key to long term recovery, most rehab programs in Michigan include integrated life skills training.

Wedgwood is a great place to work! People are so friendly, and there are quite a few events for connecting with coworkers. The therapists in the outpatient Bouma Counseling Center and Wraparound Services are skilled and professional. I'm so thankful to be part of what this place is doing to serve West Michigan.

There is a serious lack of communication within the company as well as those making referrals to the company. No psych dr, hasn't been for quite some time.Had an appointment in October to see a psych dr, an hr before the appointment I was called and told the appointment was canceled EARLIER that month when the policy changed.Dr's should recommend a place for psych meds if there's no dr there to see.

I was a patient in the Riebel program from June 9th 2023 to July 17 2023 when I ran away. There was never enough staff for the staff client ratio. Kids were never allowed to express emotions. You were told you were dumb, rude or disrespectful if you talked about your past, like we didn't know. We were there to get help and change, but they just made us feel worse. kids had been there for a week, 3 months, 6 months, 10 months, year and a half, three years nobody seemed like they were getting help. I saw the therapist 2-3 times in my 38 days of being there which was supposed to be 1-2 times a week. Staff stated they were only there for the paycheck "and it's not much anyway". They also filmed fights between the other girls in my program instead of helping. They filmed me having panic attacks and self-harming and repeatedly asked "are you done yet?" Made you wear sweatshirts and sweatpants if you had scars, you weren't allowed out of your room if you had open wounds. They told me one of my assaults was my fault and I should have prevented it. Would put on church services every sunday and made you pray before dinner even though they said they didn't force religion, but told you to "just ignore it" if you didn't want to listen. My plan was six to nine months and they told me they knew I wouldn't have been able to do it. I fought a staff, grabbed her keys out of her hand with another girl, broke 2 boys out and ran away. We ran from police and stayed in woods. They later found me at 28th and division and brought me home. I went to court and was sentenced to a juvie program. I got out in two months, was one of the top 3 to complete the program and am way better than before. i was terrible before, but I just got worse at wedgwood. If juvie was better than this place that's saying a lot because juvie was awful. Not nearly as bad compared to this place.

We have been VERY happy with Wedgewood until yesterday. My son was seen by a new doctor who was very unprofessional. She didn't answer his questions, messed around with her jewelry, acting like she didn't even want to be in the meeting. My son is 12, he was very upset at the end of the meeting as NONE of his concerns were addressed or answered. She also stated that she was leaving at the end of the month and didn't know who or when they would have a new doctor. Hoping whom ever they hire will be a better fit than this person.
