I went here in September 2021. At the time, I had been struggling with a severe alcohol addiction for 11 years. This was my first treatment center, so I had no idea what to expect. I was very nervous and unsure if there was any hope for me. I spent a total of 90 days in residential treatment and also lived in the sober living home. During my time here, I became well-educated about my addiction and learned essential life skills that I had never developed growing up. I discovered how to have real, meaningful conversations and how to live my life with rigorous honesty. The staff was incredibly accommodating, addressing my needs and helping to reassure my fears. The nutrition program played a crucial role in healing my body, and I can happily say that nearly four years later, I am still in recovery--thanks to this program and the amazing staff. If you're truly ready for change and tired of living in the same self-destructive patterns, I highly recommend this place. read more

Bridging the Gaps saved my life. I attended Bridging the Gaps for drug and alcohol treatment in 2017 and successfully completed the aftercare program in 2018. I am very fortunate to have been connected to their program and, BTG not only saved my life, but changed my life. I have found a new freedom and a new happiness thanks to the clinicians and staff at BTG as they supported my first year in sobriety. They taught me the biopsychosocial-spiritual model of recovery and I continue to practice the coping mechanisms and life skills I learned through attending treatment at BTG. I am about 7 1/2 years sober at this point in my journey and I have several peers in recovery who went through BTG's program with similar time. This program works, it's worked for me, and it's worked for countless others, especially if you are willing to follow their recommendations. read more

Well if you are looking for a dual diagnosis facility this is not that, even though they advertised themselves to be dual diagnosis. This is not about me; I am a relative of the patient and responsible for the patient. The patient had been in state care in another state and diagnosed there as much as 20 years ago as bi polar. This diagnosis did not change until the patient entered BTG at which point the powers-that-be there concluded she was not bipolar at all and did not treat this aspect of the patient's problems with any medication. The patient was in BTG for 2 full sessions to the tune of over $50,000 and then about 10 days into the 3rd session they unceremoniously kicked her out because as they put it, "the patient had become a liability." From what I can piece together from the patient and the staff at the facility, the patient had been moved from building to building several times and then from floor to floor in one building and complained to the director resulting in the director telling me "if (the patient) doesn't complete treatment she will kill herself." A direct quote. The only interaction I had with the director was over the phone with the admissions director in conference and the director became positively unhinged, yelling and making threats including the phrase uttered above. I am no doctor but I think the director has a screw loose. As well, since they booted her at over 10 days of the 3rd session they then required me to pay the balance. Yeah, they are not only incompetent but utterly shameless crooks. I ran this by a lawyer and he advised that we must pay according to the fine print. So within a week the patient was drinking again and why? I believe their ignoring of the previous stated and well documented diagnosis of bi polar disorder and its lack of treatment with medications set the stage for the patient's failure to stay sober. Not to mention the combative and unceremonious end to the patients stay at BTG. Like I said before, I'm no doctor but this is pretty obviously a rip off based on institutional hubris. I took the patient to BTG for dual diagnosis treatment and was misled by BTG as to the nature of the treatment. So ultimately I'm very disappointed in BTG. I believe they have problems stemming from the very top, the abusive director, and are certainly not as advertised a dual diagnosis facility. They are I suppose in the holistic sense but this was never explained to me, the responsible party, that the drugs that she truly needed were not going to be considered or administered. Worse, they told us "the patient is not bipolar" after 20 years in another state system with that diagnosis mentioned constantly as an important component of the patient's alcohol problem. I would not under any circumstances recommend BTG. Too expensive, abusive and volatile director, and after all, the feeling that they were most interested in keeping the patient to continue a cash flow, (especially since this was a self pay and not insurance) not to actually help the patient. Zero stars for effectiveness would have been picked if available. Phooey. read more

This organization puts lives at risk. It has violated the confidentiality of its participants. The staff gossip about the participants to people in AA meetings. It participated in shunning all the women of color from an AA meeting, because they did not have $1 to put in the basket. The women of color were from a competing rehab in town. This was very dirty. Many of the addicts that go to BTG relapse while they are in the program. read more

I was a client at BTG one year ago after being at a re-hab in Pennsylvania. I liked the way the process was managed. BTG was the only place that filled my needs to get clean. I am sober and because of BTG I am a productive part of society!! They were very professional and there treatments were top notch. BTG is one of a kind. I have to mention that two other people that I knew went there as well and are both sober for over six years! Thanks BTG!! read more

I was an inmate at Bridging the Gaps and I agree with Mike H. During the first 2 weeks I was there I saw 3 people return after relapsing and after already spending lots of $$$ and more than 90 days there. 2 of the people said they wanted to go to another rehab but came back because their families made them after working out a financial deal with BTG. The other guy didn't know where else to go. I left the next week after being accosted by the entire counseling staff for wanting to leave. I went to another rehab where I found true recovery. read more
