Taking the first step is the hardest part. We want you to know exactly what will happen so you can walk in feeling prepared, not anxious.

This page is designed to demystify the process, providing a clear roadmap of what to expect from your initial contact to your first appointment and beyond. Our goal is to alleviate any anxieties you may have, ensuring you feel supported and informed every step of the way. We are committed to creating a welcoming and non-judgmental environment where your journey to healing can begin with confidence.

Our streamlined process ensures that you can access care quickly and efficiently. We prioritize your well-being by offering same-day or next-day appointments, minimizing the wait time for critical support. Each step, from the initial phone call to the comprehensive clinical assessment and personalized treatment recommendation, is handled with the utmost care and confidentiality. We aim to make your entry into treatment as smooth and stress-free as possible, allowing you to focus on your recovery journey from day one.
Call to Get Started: (419) 740-3022When you call (419) 740-3022, our admissions team will answer. They are warm, non-judgmental, and trained to help. They will ask a few basic questions:
Average call time: 5-10 minutes. Many clients are scheduled same-day or next business day.
Our clinic is located at 111 Clinton Street, Maumee, Ohio 43537. When you arrive:
Bring: Photo ID, insurance card, list of medications. Do not have these? Come anyway.
A licensed clinician will meet with you one-on-one in a private office. This is a conversation, not an interrogation. They want to understand:
Everything you share is confidential and protected by HIPAA and 42 CFR Part 2.
Based on your assessment, your clinician will recommend a level of care. This is a collaborative discussion — you have a voice in your treatment plan.
Many clients begin treatment the same day or within 24-48 hours of their assessment. Your first day of treatment includes:
Do not have ID or insurance? Come anyway. We will help you figure it out.
"I am scared."
That is completely normal. Most of our clients felt the same way before their first visit. Our team is trained to make you feel safe and comfortable from the moment you walk in.
"I do not want people to know."
Your privacy is protected by federal law (HIPAA and 42 CFR Part 2). We cannot share your information with anyone without your written consent — not your employer, not family members, not law enforcement.
"I have tried before and failed."
Relapse is a common part of recovery — not a sign of failure. Many of our most successful clients tried multiple times before finding what worked. Each attempt teaches you something. This time can be different.
"I cannot afford it."
We accept all Ohio Medicaid plans (no copay), Medicare, and commercial insurance. If you are uninsured, we can help you apply for Medicaid or discuss other options. Cost should never prevent you from getting help.
You do not need to have everything figured out. You just need to make one phone call. We will take it from there.
Fill out this quick form and our team will call you back — usually within the same business day.
