An excellent and comprehensive treatment experience for young folks early in recovery and through…read moremid recovery. I'm an addiction psychologist in Philadelphia and Bala Cynwyd so I often refer to Adolescent Advocates when a young client or patient is in need of group treatment or more treatment then I can provide. I prefer that most clients are followed by an individual psychologist as well as the addiction counselors in rehabs like A2 because the mental health component of young people using substances accounts for 70% of the population in treatment at any given time. In providing addiction treatment consultation and helping individuals decide whether they need outpatient, group or inpatient treatment, I base my evaluation of a program on whether it has evidenced based and researched best practices for treatment according to peer reviewed articles and literature. A2's foray into relapse prevention, Mindfulness Based practices and positive behavioral reinforcement of applied functional analysis may be responsible for their success. That said, I don't think they realize they're doing that work exactly but their approach is successful and I especially base that on the self report of clients I work with who have been there. - Jeremy Frank PhD CADC., Addiction Psychologist and Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor, Bala Cynwyd and Philadelphia www.Jeremyfrankphd.com

Calls before the intake appointment indicated that they were participating with our insurance for mental health issues. After the intake appointment and an in-person visit (with the owner), it turns out that this is not precisely the case. My son needed to be seen for mental health issues, and the facility and staff are only approved for substance abuse. They knew my son had no history of substance abuse. They are not approved for mental health due to the lack of a psychiatrist (I believe no psychologist either, only licensed counselor) on staff. The owner/counselor stated they thought he would be a good fit for the program, apologized for the coverage misinformation given, and would "work with us." We ended up leaving the practice after nine visits (a mix of in-person and group appointments) as they could never give us out-of-pocket costs/co-pays. They then called and stated they would charge my credit card on file, but they didn't have one. We refused to give a card over the phone, asked why there was no insurance submission, and asked for a statement. After which, we received a bill for full costs, with no insurance submissions and multiple calls for full payment. I didn't sign any paperwork indicating I am their billing office. The director of finance, also known as the entire billing department, refused to submit to insurance, claiming they were not legally able to. If you tell me you are a participating provider with my insurance (for mental health) and are not and know that you cannot submit for insurance reimbursement, I believe you are committing fraud. Stay away!
