About Belmont Wild Acre

Wild Acre Belmont is a community residential program that can provide care for up to 16 adults struggling with behavioral health concerns. It’s located in Belmont, Massachusetts.

This facility does not directly treat substance use disorder (SUD) but instead is formatted to care for people suffering from severe mental illnesses that might otherwise impact their ability to live independently. Belmont has plenty of beautiful natural retreats that residents can enjoy in their free time.

This includes the Belmont Victory Gardens at Rock Meadow which features gorgeous walking trails and community gardens. You can also enjoy the 87 acre Habitat Education Center and Wildlife Sanctuary which houses several breathtaking gardens or Pleasant Street Historic District in downtown Belmont.

Tranquil Residential Care

Because this facility is not a SUD oriented center, people struggling with addiction should work with an alternate provider to help stabilize their symptoms before transferring to Wild Acre’s residential program.

The program is designed to be a long term solution with some people spending years in the facility’s care. I think it’s nice that clients have private residences and have access to chef prepared dinners, common areas, a library, laundry facilities, and even an outdoor vegetable garden.

Mental Health Support

I like that residents are assigned a dedicated case manager who works with them to better understand their mental health and build the skills needed to manage their condition better. Along with weekly community house meetings, residents participate in health and wellness groups, art and expression groups, and weekly outings.

They’re also taught life skills education and daily living tips to help them eventually become self sufficient. For more information on payment options at Wild Acre, consider speaking with a patient care advocate there.

Amenities

Private Rehab

Private drug rehab provides a comfortable, secure environment that allows you to focus on doing the work to get your life back on track. Benefits include a higher staff-to-client ratio, increased one-on-one time with therapists and healthcare providers, private rooms for clients, and customized forms of therapy.

Residential Setting

Residential drug rehab provides the comforts of home with the therapeutic support needed to successfully recover. Benefits of an inpatient program include increased safety, a higher success rate, and the time and distance given to focus on recovery. Residential drug rehabs are often the preferred method of treatment, as they can be tailored to meet specific needs, offer focused therapeutic care, and provide the necessary tools to sustain recovery.

Private Rooms

In order to maintain a sense of autonomy, many private rehab facilities offer clients the ability to choose their own private rooms. The privacy and personal space ensure that the recovery process is as comfortable as possible.

Addiction Treatment Programs

Teen & Adolescent Program

Teen and young adult substance abuse can set individuals on a life-long path of destruction. A young adult program in Massachusetts can intervene in young adults’ lives to set them on a better path during this crucial stage of life.

Adult Program

Each adult program in Massachusetts is designed to help individuals over the age of 18 recover from addiction to drugs or alcohol. The length of the program and its intensity varies, based on the needs of the individual.

Men's Rehab

For men who want to stop drinking or using drugs, men’s rehab in Massachusetts offers help and hope. These treatment programs, designed specifically for men, help participants recover and rebuild their lives.

Women's Rehab

Women who are seeking treatment for substance use disorders can receive various levels of care at women’s rehab in Massachusetts. Programs include detox, partial hospitalization programs (PHP), intensive outpatient programs (IOP), telehealth programs, sober living, outpatient, and aftercare.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Cognitive behavioral therapy in Massachusetts is a hands-on method that engages participants in changing their thought and behavior patterns. Rather than a talk-listen approach, individuals are actively involved in working with their therapist to treat their addiction.

Senior Drug & Alcohol Rehab

Elderly rehab in Massachusetts addresses both addiction issues and common challenges faced by older adults. By dealing with grief, loss, social isolation, and financial uncertainty, participants are given tools to overcome addiction later in life.

Rational Behavior Therapy (RBT)

Addiction therapists apply rational emotive behavioral therapy in Massachusetts to focus on the interconnectedness of behaviors, thoughts, and feelings. The aim of therapy is for these three things to work together to improve your quality of life rather than lead to dysfunction.

Fitness Therapy

Fitness therapy is an evidence-based complementary approach to addiction recovery and mental health care. Based on mounting scientific evidence of the benefits of physical activity in improving mood, enhancing clients’ sense of wellbeing, and decreasing depression and anxiety, fitness therapy encompasses a wide spectrum of intensities, from gentle yoga, qigong, and tai chi to weight training, kickboxing, and other highly physical activities.

Assertive Community Treatment (ACT)

Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) is an integrative, community-based care strategy designed to address the needs of persons with severe and/or complex mental illness or behavioral disorders. ACT is typically provided by a multidisciplinary team of medical and mental health care providers, social workers, therapists, and other specialists, including addiction recovery professionals. These services are frequently provided in the home and community to clients in crisis, those who are clinically unstable, and those who are unable or unwilling to travel to a hospital or clinic for in-person treatment.

Levels of Care

Dual Diagnosis & Mental Health

If you meet the diagnostic criteria for two or more conditions, you have a dual diagnosis. Massachusetts dual diagnosis treatment is designed to address both conditions simultaneously, for improved recovery outcomes.

Inpatient Rehab

As the most intensive treatment setting, inpatient drug rehab in Massachusetts treatment involves 24/7 supervised care. At this level of care, you typically participate in individual, group, and family therapy sessions, and you may receive medication and additional recreational therapies.

Sober Living

In Massachusetts sober living, you will take on more responsibility than rehab treatment requires. You’ll pay rent and work or attend school. You’ll also contribute to household chores. The goal is to learn how to live independently, free from drugs and alcohol.
