Frequently Asked Questions
Is substance use treatment confidential?
Yes, all services are strictly confidential and follow federal and state privacy laws, including HIPAA regulations. Your personal information, treatment history, and participation are protected and only shared with your consent or when legally required. We prioritize creating a safe space where you can speak openly without fear of judgment or exposure.
Do you accept referrals from doctors or community organizations?
Yes, we regularly work with healthcare providers, social workers, and community organizations to coordinate care. Referrals help ensure a smoother intake process and allow us to better understand your background before starting treatment. However, individuals and families can also reach out directly to begin services without a formal referral.
Are virtual or telehealth options available for treatment?
In some cases, we offer telehealth services to increase accessibility and convenience. Virtual sessions can be especially helpful for individuals with transportation challenges or scheduling conflicts. Availability may vary depending on the type of care needed, and our team can help determine if this option is appropriate for you.
What should I do to prepare for my first appointment?
Before your first visit, it’s helpful to gather any relevant medical records, a list of medications, and information about your health history. Arriving with an open mind and willingness to engage in the process can also make a meaningful difference. Our team will guide you through each step so you feel informed and comfortable from the start.
Will my insurance cover substance use treatment services?
Coverage depends on your specific insurance provider and plan details. Many plans include behavioral health benefits that may partially or fully cover treatment services. Our administrative team can assist in verifying your benefits and explaining any out-of-pocket costs before you begin care.
