When you are putting money toward a family member’s health, happiness and wellbeing, you’ll want to make sure you’re making the best choice for your Ebony alcohol and drug addiction rehab program. While the most prudent course of action may still be to talk to our helpline advisors so they can discuss your personal needs, reading the ratings and reviews on some of the addiction treatment programs in your area is another excellent place to get started.

I had never been to a self-pay facility before but the biggest advantage was definitely in the experience, obvious strength and the closeness of everyone there. There were no, "I am better than you, or I know more than you" attitudes going on. We were all just one-addict-helping- another and each other. It worked for me because I stayed in contact with the staff and many people who went through the program. Best place I had ever been to, my 7th in a span of almost 30 years.
It's a great place, the counselor gives amazing lectures on how the brain works, and he's figured out things about addiction and how the brain changes as your addiction progresses and the possibility of basically rewiring the brain to enjoy other things to combat addiction. It's all very exciting to think about retraining your behaviors on that level, to feel hope about actually being happily sober. Most of the counselors are amazing, caring people, the living situation is awesome, and you learn and do so many cool things. The counselor that made me leave made did it arbitrarily and unfairly. I had my boyfriend and family in the living room because I thought you were allowed to show your visitors the home you were living at. I was made to leave, but my friend who had her boyfriend in our room was not even talked to about that. I really think that I could have gotten a lot from the treatment. I was so upset that I obviously relapsed... hard.
Treatment team communication, access to support groups, contingency planning, and medical modeling. Consistency in treatment are some of the great things about this place.
