About Glenwood
Glenwood is a behavioral health facility that specializes in supporting people who are on the autism spectrum, and it’s located in Birmingham, Alabama. This center treats children, adolescents, and adults, and also addresses individuals with severe emotional disturbances, as well as other behavioral health concerns. There is a diverse level of care available depending on the severity of a patient’s diagnosis and assessment.
Birmingham is a major city in Alabama with significant historic relevance that offers plenty of recreational outlets including shopping and restaurants. Near Glenwood is Oak Mountain State Park which is a massive nature preserve. Likewise, there are plenty of city parks that serve as green spaces.
Customized Care for Adults and Youth
A key feature at Glenwood is the fact that you can receive a variety of care solutions depending on your individualized needs. For example, this facility provides residential, outpatient and in home solutions but also works to connect its patients with community resources that can help to build independence. However, this facility does not focus on substance use disorders (SUD) or manage them as a co occurring disorder.
Experiential and Unique Therapies
I like that this facility thinks outside the box by offering a variety of therapeutic activities beyond traditional talk therapy and behavioral therapy. Residents can enjoy music therapy, therapeutic games, arts and crafts, and a variety of indoor activities. Likewise you can enjoy outdoor excursions at Turkey Foot Lake nearby.
A Holistic Approach
Autism can look different from person to person, which is why Glenwood understands the importance of having a supportive network in place for the individual who is neurodivergent. This means that families and loved ones also receive not just support, but training on understanding and managing autism. Likewise, programs are customized to accommodate different development stages or levels of functioning, and I think this is a valuable part of their facility.
This also means that the facility is formatted to be a comfortable and safe space for people with autism. This includes sensory friendly rooms, play areas or even outdoor activity spaces that are less likely to be a trigger. Glenwood accepts various insurance plans, state funding, and even private payment.
Amenities
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 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.
Recreational therapy uniquely combines therapeutic interventions with an activity, like horse-riding, hiking, wilderness therapy, basketball, tennis, or a full workout. Benefits of recreational therapy include providing a healthy way to work through the emotions of recovery, learning to build and maintain relationships, improving communication skills, and building self-esteem.
Art and music are mediums that connect with our feelings, making them a great recovery tool during addiction treatment. Studies show that combining art/music and drug rehab can have a greater therapeutic impact than drug rehab alone, as you’re able to access parts of your brain and body that you may not have access to during traditional talk therapy. Benefits of art/music therapy include lowering stress and anxiety, promoting healthy neurochemicals, and providing stress relief.
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.

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
Outpatient rehab in Alabama allows you to attend a few hours of counseling each week, spread out over several days. You can spend the rest of your time at home, working, or fulfilling other obligations. The length of time in this type of program varies by individual.
Alabama dual diagnosis treatment takes an integrated approach to substance abuse and mental health disorders that occur simultaneously. Since co-occurring disorders tend to have overlapping symptoms, treating both conditions at the same time is essential for recovery.
Residential or inpatient rehab in Alabama involves living at the rehab facility and receiving 24/7 supervised care. A combination of treatment interventions is offered, including individual and group therapy, nutritional counseling, experiential therapies, and medication.
Many drug rehabs in Alabama offer partial hospitalization programs (PHPs), a type of outpatient treatment that allows you to live at home while receiving addiction treatment at a rehab facility. A typical day is filled with individual and group therapy sessions, recovery education, periodic medical evaluations, and drilling aftercare skills to prevent relapse.
