Accessible Mental Health Support

Programs are designed for those seeking support for anxiety, depression, or other mental health challenges that may overlap with substance use. Care is designed to address both needs together, with individual therapy, group sessions, and access to psychiatric providers. Telehealth options make it possible to continue therapy even if attending sessions on site is difficult.

Move Through Levels of Care with Ease

Treatment is available at different levels of intensity so clients can get the right amount of support for their particular needs. The partial hospitalization program (PHP) provides four hours of daily group treatment for those needing consistent structure, while the intensive outpatient program (IOP) offers less intensive touchpoints with 10–15 hours of programming across the week. These options create a step-up or step-down pathway, making it easier to stay connected to care as needs change.

Building Connection with Those Who’ve Been There

Programs go beyond therapy sessions to help clients build coping skills and strengthen stability. Yoga, art therapy, mindfulness, and meditation help clients manage stress, while Recovery Support Specialists, who bring lived experience, provide added encouragement. The TryCycle mobile app extends connection between visits by offering journaling tools and alerts that notify staff when extra support may be needed.

Client Reviews

Clients describe varied experiences at this facility. Many highlight compassionate staff and effective detox that gave them a strong start in recovery, while others raise challenges with admissions, communication, and follow-through after treatment.

  • Staff & Care Experience (60% positive): Many reviewers describe kind, supportive staff. Others, however, felt staff were unresponsive or unprofessional. “The staff is compassionate and clearly cares for the well-being of their clients.”
  • Treatment Quality & Outcomes (55% positive): Detox is often praised as well-run and effective, with clients reporting it helped them begin recovery. By contrast, some inpatient and IOP experiences felt disorganized or unhelpful. “For anyone seeking detox and/or intensive inpatient, Rushford is the place to go.”
