Care that treats you like a person

Fair. Fresh wording, top to bottom:

In Aurora, the road to feeling better opens with something simple: a genuine human on the line. No pressing buttons through a menu, no salesperson reciting lines – you’ll reach an actual member of our staff who stops what they’re doing and hears you out. We pay close attention to that very first exchange, because it quietly signals the kind of care you can expect from us going forward.

Addiction and mental health don’t spare anyone based on their zip code, and residents of Arapahoe, Adams, and Douglas counties feel the impact like everywhere else. Overdoses claim more than 1,800 Coloradans in an average year, and at any given time roughly one in five adults around here is quietly managing a mental health condition. What breaks our hearts is the sheer number who never receive care at all – priced out, weighed down by embarrassment, or left guessing about where to even begin. Tearing down those exact obstacles is why this place exists.

So we shaped our services to bend around your schedule, not the reverse – outpatient groups gather during daylight hours and after dark alike. Healing was never meant to cost you your livelihood, interrupt your degree, or strip time away from your loved ones – it belongs woven into the Aurora life you’re already leading, not swapped out for it. And whatever you tell us stays protected, no exceptions, from the moment you first ring us to the day you wrap up.

Coverage worries won’t stop you here either. Before you decide a single thing, we’ll sit down together and walk through your insurance in language stripped of all the jargon – so what’s in front of you looks like a workable plan you can trust, rather than a heap of uncertainty.

You don't have to be at your worst to ask for help.

We’ll have someone who listens without judging call you right back!

Alcoholism, or alcohol use disorder (AUD), is a chronic condition where a person can’t control their drinking despite negative consequences to their health, relationships, or daily life. It ranges from mild to severe and is recognized as a treatable medical condition.

Common signs include drinking more or longer than intended, unsuccessful attempts to cut back, strong cravings, neglecting responsibilities, continued drinking despite problems, needing more alcohol to feel the same effect (tolerance), and experiencing withdrawal symptoms when not drinking.

There’s no single cause. Genetics, family history, mental health conditions, trauma, environment, and drinking patterns all contribute. Many people develop AUD through a combination of these factors.

Alcohol abuse refers to harmful drinking patterns, while addiction (dependence) involves physical and psychological reliance on alcohol, including cravings and withdrawal. Addiction is generally more severe and requires medical support to address safely.

Warning signs include drinking to cope with stress or emotions, hiding your drinking, feeling unable to stop, prioritizing alcohol over other activities, and experiencing withdrawal symptoms. If drinking is affecting your life and you can’t stop, it may be time to seek help.

Yes, it can be. Severe alcohol withdrawal can cause seizures, hallucinations, and a life-threatening condition called delirium tremens (DTs). This is why medically supervised detox is strongly recommended rather than quitting alone.

Some people recover with support groups, therapy, or medication alone. However, professional treatment significantly improves outcomes, especially for moderate to severe addiction, and medically supervised detox is safest.

Common program lengths are 30, 60, and 90 days, though some people benefit from longer stays. Research shows that longer treatment durations often lead to better long-term outcomes.

Inpatient (residential) rehab provides 24/7 care in a live-in facility, ideal for severe addiction or unstable home environments. Outpatient rehab allows you to live at home while attending scheduled treatment, offering more flexibility for work and family.

Costs vary widely based on program type, length, location, and amenities. Outpatient programs are generally more affordable than residential, and many facilities offer payment plans, sliding-scale fees, or accept insurance to reduce out-of-pocket expenses.

Options include medically supervised detox, inpatient and outpatient rehab, behavioral therapies (like CBT), medication-assisted treatment, support groups, and ongoing aftercare. Effective treatment usually combines several approaches.

Yes. Research shows that most people who receive treatment reduce their drinking and improve their quality of life. Like any chronic condition, ongoing management and support improve long-term success.

Aftercare is key to maintaining recovery. This may include continued therapy, support groups (like AA or SMART Recovery), sober living homes, and relapse-prevention strategies to help you stay on track long-term.
