Admissions
We won’t coddle you, but we will walk with you — through the fear, the mess, and whatever comes next. Outpatient treatment in Ellicott City, serving Howard County and the wider Maryland area.

01
Call, message, or fill out a referral. We respond within one business day — usually the same day.
02
A 15–30 minute phone screen to make sure our programs match what you’re looking for. If we’re not the right fit, we’ll point you to providers who are.
03
Once cleared, we schedule an intake appointment as soon as possible — often within a few days.
Insurance & payment
We work with BCBS / CareFirst, Cigna, Aetna, TRICARE, Maryland Medicaid (HealthChoice), and most other commercial carriers. We’ll handle benefits verification directly and walk you through the financial side clearly — no fine print, no surprises. Self-pay is also an option; ask about rates when you reach out.
If you need immediate help outside our hours, call 911 for true emergencies, contact 211, your local crisis response team, or go to the nearest emergency room.
