Levels of Care

Outpatient

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

Intensive Outpatient

Clients who enroll in an intensive outpatient program (IOP) are typically either in early recovery or are experiencing a crisis that increases their relapse risk. These programs promote clients' sustained sobriety through robust support, including multiple, extended care sessions per week. Intensive outpatient treatment often encompasses an array of services, including psychotherapy, recovery education, and evidence-based holistic therapies, such as acupuncture and meditation. Many outpatient rehabs also offer medication assisted treatment (MAT).

Aftercare

Clients in rehab aftercare programs receive a customized portfolio of services designed to promote their sustained sobriety. These clients have completed high-level treatment, are typically exiting detox and/or intensive inpatient care and are reintegrating into their home, workplace, and community. Rehab aftercare services address addiction disease as a chronic condition requiring continuing care. Clients typically work with case managers and recovery teams to access necessary resources, such as peer coaching and 12 step program induction support.

12-Step

Participants in 12 step programs maintain access to community-based peer support, which is the programs' primary treatment modality. 12 step recovery combines personal growth with paper coaching. Participants regularly attend group meetings, which are free, anonymous, open to the public, and available multiple times per day in most communities. They are also mentored by self-selected sponsors who guide them through the steps of recovery. Age and gender specific and other specialized formats are common.

Medically 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.

Cognitive Behavior Therapy

Dialectical Behavior Therapy

During dialectical behavior therapy in New York, you and your therapist will look for triggers and patterns that are guiding your emotions. This involves keeping a diary of your emotions and situations and sharing this each week with the therapist. This information will determine what you work on in each session.

Group Therapy

Men and women receive emotional support from their peers during group therapy sessions. These are typically people who face the same struggles that you do. This exposure fosters a sense of camaraderie and community while reducing feelings of isolation and loneliness that often accompany addiction.

Individual Therapy

Men and women in New York undergoing one on one individual therapy for drug and alcohol addiction treatment will address the unique psychological and emotional aspects that are often associated with addiction triggers. Your therapist helps you build a relapse prevention plan and set achievable goals to improve your mental health and achieve long term sobriety.

Motivational Interviewing

Introduced in 1983, motivational interviewing is a method to help clients commit to change. It's based on the philosophy that change is hard, and clients must explore their own options and come to their own conclusions rather than receive warnings or advice from the therapist.

Trauma Therapy

Trauma therapy involves working through the psychological and emotional impact of a traumatic event. You learn to identify the triggers and develop coping mechanisms that build a sense of safety and trust in yourself.

Couples Therapy

You can participate in couples therapy to focus on a specific problem in your relationship or for general strengthening of the relationship. This therapy aims to help you improve communication, address conflict, and grow in affection for one another.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) in New York is a structured therapeutic approach to help alleviate the distress that's associated with traumatic memories. Your therapist ensures you're in a safe environment and may help use relaxation techniques to prepare for each session. Therapy is a holistic approach to your emotional and cognitive healing after trauma.

Family Therapy

Family therapy helps individual members of the family unit navigate the complexities of addiction. Therapists provide you with the tools you need to improve communication skills and conflict resolution. When families work together, they can support their loved one's recovery and help to restore balance and harmony within the household.

Life Skills

Coping with day to day living is a challenge while in addiction recovery. Life skills training helps you learn how to manage daily tasks and deal with stress in healthy ways. This is key to long term recovery.

The care at Wholeview is second to none. I've been to several service providers like Wholview in NYC, and Wholeview is hands down the best. The clinicians are caring and compassionate. Drs. Ashley Hall, Hima Reddy and Isiah Sypher are all amazing and address each individual based on their unique needs. I have never felt like just "another patient" at Wholeview.For me, groups at Wholeview are the best experiences I've ever had. Also - the administration of the organization is effective, and efficient - billing is always accurate. My invoices are sent on time so that I can file with my insurance company right away.I can't recommend Wholeview enough.

Jennifer Sample

The best outpatient program in NYC. Sarah Church is the Director. She does a class called Mentalization. It's by far the best group to share and reinforce your feelings about what other people may think of you, what you want to tell them and explore feelings about what your family is thinking. It is the best group to calm you down in the early stages and tell people what you want and what you don't have to share. It helps you understand if they are thinking the way you intend them to and be open and patient and kind with them. They may be thinking something completely different than you think they are which is an exceptional tool and strategy to reduce drama with friends and family in the early stages of treatment. It's great open forum for others in your situation to help you change the way you think. Thanks! Jennifer

To echo another reviewer, Wholeview is hands-down the best addiction treatment to be found in New York City (and certainly among the best in the United States.) Along my path to recovery from severe opiate addiction (multiple years clean now!) I have been through 4 inpatient rehab stays, 8 different outpatient programs, and a handful of sober living residences. Despite my best efforts, I relapsed time and time again. It wasn't until I enrolled at Wholeview that I was able to successfully break this dangerous, painful cycle to remain drug-free and build the foundation of stable mental health that has afforded me my life back.Dr. Sarah Church, the program's founder who continues to be involved in everything from leading groups, counseling individuals, and case management, is both an angel and a genius. Wholeview utilizes the best evidence-based practices, with a staff composed of PhD level clinicians (a vast departure from most recovery programs). Every single psychologist I have encountered at Wholeview through my groups and individual sessions has helped me improve my life in measurable ways and provided unparalleled resources. Wholeview clinicians are as caring as they are intelligent. As a patient, I have consistently felt understood, attended to, and hopeful throughout my entire experience with Wholeview. I honestly believe I might not be alive today to write this review had I not been fortunate to come across Wholeview.And while I am not usually in the practice of writing reviews online, to not share my experience when it comes to such a life-changing experience as addiction treatment would be a disservice to others seeking help for themselves or their loved ones. In addition to Wholeview's main program, for individuals with Medicaid coverage there is Wholeview Direct -- another gem in the rather dismal landscape of addiction treatment. As someone who has seen firsthand a diversity of treatment options, I wholeheartedly recommend Wholeview to anyone and everyone (families of addicts included...check out their CRAFT program) in need of help with dependence and addiction.

Thanks so much for your kind review. We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experiences at Wholeview!

I saw Sarah Church to for anxiety and panic disorder. Through CBT, I was given tools to cope and empower myself through months of severe, persistent anxiety. She helped me understand the relationship between anxiety, unhelpful thinking styles, and over- breathing. The cognitive work that was done in our sessions uncovered the source of the anxiety and gave me the ability to process and heal from the root. I am in a MUCH better place after seeing her. Sarah is relatable, compassionate and truly cares for her patients. I will always be grateful for the time I worked with her. I strongly recommend her to anyone who struggles with depression or anxiety/panic.

I had the gift of working with Sarah Church for a year. She is super bright, caring and excellent at her craft. She helped me on so many levels. I was able to get to a place within that year to move on, as she had given me the tools I needed to deal with my life. Michele Rice

From the moment I entered Wholeview s beautiful office I felt welcomed and comfortable. Before going online, I looked forward to seeing Roger before my session. He is very sweet, friendly, helpful and has the most calming presence. I attend one-on-one therapy with Dr. Church and a weekly DBT group with Dr. Barris. Dr. Church is open, kind, and very knowledgeable. After a short while, it will be hard to miss the research-based approach of this incredibly professional and compassionate team. After a year and a half of weekly sessions my life has changed for the better. I have learned where my anxiety around strangers, depressive moods, difficulties with romantic relationships, and occasional over drinking comes from. With that knowledge, as well as the validation and skills I have learned from Dr. Church and Dr. Barris, I m living a much more peaceful inner life. Now, whenever I feel difficult emotions I can step back, understand them and deal with them in a healthy way instead of seeking distraction with bad habits. I feel very lucky I found and continue working with Wholeview.

Words cannot describe how thankful I am to have found Dr. Colley, as it was at a time when I most needed someone to come into my life and help show me the way forward when I couldn t see it myself. There is so much I could say about Amy and how she s helped me, but the thing that stands out most is just how much she genuinely cares about her patients well-being. That might sound obvious, but it s not, as most professionals simply care and put in work while they re on the clock, but Amy went so far above and beyond that it left me in awe on so many occasions. Even though we re no longer working together, she still checks in on me, both directly and indirectly (via my doctor).While we were working together, she would often text me to make sure I was up and getting my day started. When she recommended I find an ADHD coach, I was not motivated to do so, even though I knew it would benefit me. A couple of weeks later when I told her I hadn t pursued it, she told me that she found one that is highly recommended and actually called the woman to recommend me as a patient to her. It has worked out incredibly well and I m just so very thankful for Amy.If you are going through a tough time and don t know where to turn, I can say without a doubt that going to Wholeview will help get you on track. It might not happen right away, but if you continue to show up, things will turn around for you, just like it did for me.

As a parent of a son participating in the program at Whole view, words cannot express my appreciation and sincere gratitude I have for this facility. My son Jake began attending their IOP program this summer after many difficult years of living with a substance-abuse problem and nearly dying last year from his addiction.Wholeview provided my son with the environment he terribly needed, including an amazing support system made up of a professional staff of MDs, who are experts in the care and guidance of individuals with addiction problems.It was at Wholeview, where my son was able to share his experiences and gain acceptance of his problems.Roger, Director of Operations/Business Development, always made Jake feel comfortable, safe and secure, as did Dr. Church in small group settings, whom Jake spoke of often with the highest regard.If you, as a parent or significant individual have questions, Roger is kind and caring, and always responds promptly to telephone calls and emails. He has always read and returned my emails expeditiously with positive and supportive, comforting suggestions, updates and always presenting realistic goals for my son.We have surely found the right treatment center as Jake is preparing to transition, interviewing for jobs and optimistic about his future with a clear mind that is free of drugs.Thank you all at Wholeview for your exceptional psychological and social support. Because of you, Jake has truly been been given a second chance and new opportunities for his future survival.All of this can be directly attributed to the wonderful efforts and great work at Wholeview.Tina

This place with out a doubt saved my life. When I first started there I was a complete mess. I am glad I had the opportunity to find people that cared about my sobriety and this place was a great find. I think the small groups are great and makes it much easier everyone to be focused on individually. Dr. Church is a very caring person and I felt comfortable explaining my current situation to her from the very start. As well Roger who always is caring and makes sure I'm always attentive is a huge asset to wholeview and glad he is always there to assist me. Dr. Colley and Dr. Smith also have great groups and taught me how to cope with my addictions as well as deal with my panic attacks which happen much less frequently! Words can not express how much they have helped me and if you have the chance to go here I would definitely recommend Wholeview for any kind or addiction.
