Holden House

They offer inpatient residential and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Lansing has 8 other centers within 14 miles.

They do not detox. Withdrawal from alcohol or benzodiazepines in particular is a medical event, and the closest place set up for it is in Lansing, about a mile away.

No medication assisted treatment here. Some programs are abstinence based by design, which is a real difference rather than an oversight, and Lansing has 8 other centers to compare.

People dealing with past trauma are one of the 2 groups they offer a dedicated program for.

Lansing has 88 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.

Compare what each one actually provides rather than how each one describes itself. Referral services and treatment providers both answer the phone, and knowing which you reached changes the call. Ask what license is held by the person who would actually be treating you.

Nothing goes out without an authorization you sign, and that authorization can be narrow. The protection reaches further than general medical privacy does, which is why a center will not take a message for you either. Where a court or a license is involved, ask exactly what gets reported and to whom.

It is common, programs are built expecting it, and it is not a reason to wait. Where the first attempt had no medication and no aftercare, those are the two obvious things to change. Say what happened last time, because it is the most useful thing you can tell an intake worker.
