Rehab Facilities Denver Area

Program Overview
Healing First, adult intensive residential treatment, offers individualized care to clients who are 18 years of age or older.  Its purpose is to provide treatment to individuals whose substance use and / or co-occurring mental illness has resulted in disruption of their emotional, mental, physical or socioeconomic functioning.  This program is designed for those clients whose treatment in a less restrictive setting would be unlikely to result in changes in attitude and motivation sufficient to maintain abstinence from alcohol and other drugs. Its focus is on stabilization and preparing for ongoing treatment in a lower level of care.

Program Services
Individual, group and family therapy, recovery planning, psychiatric stabilization and medication management, recreational activities, educational groups, positive social support, 12-step meetings, and case management for linkage and referral into ongoing treatment services. Family services include a weekly education program for families and the possibility for individual family therapy sessions.

Admission Criteria
• The individual must be age 18 or older;
• The individual must have a substance abuse and/or co-occurring mental health problem;

• The individual must be free of psychiatric symptoms that place them at high risk to harm themselves or others.

People Most Able to Benefit from This Program
• Individuals who are unable to maintain abstinence between outpatient sessions;
