About BHG Westerly Treatment Center

BHG (Behavioral Health Group) is accredited by The Joint Commission as an addiction and mental health treatment organization. They have treatment centers in 20 states, including one in St. Westerly, Rhode Island. I like that the organization was founded in 2006 and offers medication assisted treatment (MAT) for detox and maintenance, counseling, therapy and wraparound services for clients with co-occurring disorders.

Clients can pay for services using Medicare, Medicaid, and most major insurance plans. The staff offers same day or next day admissions for your convenience.

Convenient Location & Inclusive Treatment in Westerly

The facility is about one mile from the walkable, historic downtown area, the cultural heart of Westerly. Westerly has an abundance of public beaches and walkable shorelines, making it a beautiful place to start addiction treatment.

Programs are inclusive and welcome everyone, including veterans, pregnant women, abuse survivors and those in the LGBTQ+ community.

Medical Screenings & Care

In addition to addiction and mental health care, the providers offer medical screenings and assessments. The organization partners with other providers to offer extended care and support services. I noticed one client said, “The people here really do care and are here for you.”

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.

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

Many disorders and addictions can be treated at a young adult program in Rhode Island. Programs combine family, group, and individual therapies in an age-appropriate environment to treat alcohol and drug use disorders as well as co-occurring disorders such as anxiety and depression.

Adult Program

Each available adult program in Rhode Island offers a full continuum of care to those aged 18 and up.. Inpatient, outpatient, and sober living programs offer varying levels of intensity to meet the needs of every individual.

Men's Rehab

Men often feel safer in men’s rehab in Rhode Island and more comfortable without the presence of women. This allows them to deal with sensitive topics such as traumatic events and deep-rooted emotions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

During cognitive behavioral therapy in Rhode Island, therapists use role-playing techniques to help participants develop skills to deal with challenges without turning to substances. Treatment focuses on changing thoughts and related behaviors.

Senior Drug & Alcohol Rehab

While many facilities can help seniors with addiction, elderly rehab in Rhode Island offers tailored treatment for this population. Elderly rehab offers age-appropriate care that addresses physical, mental, and social concerns of older adults.

Rational Behavior Therapy (RBT)

Rational emotive behavioral therapy in Rhode Island teaches you how to replace dysfunctional thoughts with beliefs that help you stop abusing substances and achieve life goals. Treatment starts with identifying irrational beliefs and understanding their consequences.

Levels of Care

Outpatient Rehab

Outpatient rehab in Rhode Island involves less frequent sessions than inpatient programs. You’ll attend therapy and 12-step meetings, while maintaining other life responsibilities. This will help you remain accountable while learning to live a sober lifestyle.

Dual Diagnosis & Mental Health

Substance abuse and mental illness often overlap. If you struggle with addiction and a condition such as anxiety or depression, you need dual diagnosis treatment in Rhode Island. This will provide treatment for both disorders.

Aftercare & Alumni Program

Recovery doesn’t happen in 90 days. It’s a lifelong process. That’s why aftercare rehab in Rhode Island is available. This treatment picks up where initial rehab leaves off. It gives you ongoing support to meet challenges as you step back into your life.

Detox & MAT

When you enter drug rehab in Rhode Island, you’ll begin your road to recovery with detox. This is the process of slowly and safely ridding your body of addictive substances. The length of detox varies, based on personal history and type of substances used.

Payment Options

Self-Pay Options

In Rhode Island, you have the option to pay for your addiction treatment out-of-pocket, known as self-pay or private pay. Self-pay gives you the ability to take charge of your recovery journey, by providing access to all levels of care at alcohol and drug rehabs in Rhode Island because you don’t have to limit yourself to the restrictions of your private insurer or a state-run program.

Private Insurance

Your private insurance may cover the cost of alcohol and drug rehab in Rhode Island. The amount covered may depend on your policy and whether the treatment center is in-network or out-of-network. You may be left with some costs like a co-payment, or co-insurance. Check with your insurer for more information.

Medicaid Accepted

If you need help paying for alcohol and drug rehab in Rhode Island, you may be eligible for Medicaid. Coverage through Rhode Island Medicaid may vary, but it can assist with the cost of addiction treatment, including detox, inpatient rehab, and more.

Financial Aid

Financial Aid: If you need help with paying for alcohol and drug rehab in Rhode Island, financial aid may be a good solution. Financial assistance options include grants, scholarships, non-profit programs, personal funding, and health insurance programs to help you manage the expense of substance abuse treatment.
