<p><strong>ABOUT GENESIS PROGRAMS, INC.</strong></p> <p>Founded in 1993, Genesis Programs, Inc. operates two <strong>outpatient facilities</strong> northwest of Los Angeles, in Thousand Oaks and Ventura, for individuals struggling with substance abuse and <a href="http://www.recovery.org/topics/dual-diagnosis-recovery/" target="_blank">co-occurring mental health disorders</a>. The facility accepts both entry-level clients and those stepping down from residential care at another facility. Detox is not available on site. </p> <p><strong>TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT</strong></p> <p>Genesis Programs, Inc. focuses on providing outpatient care through various programs. Each client enrolls in the program that best fits their needs, and can use them as a gradual step-down process. The facility coordinates a preliminary bio-psycho-social assessment for each client to determine their individual needs at the beginning of the treatment process. </p> <p>At both of its locations, Genesis offers a <strong>partial hospitalization program (PHP) and an intensive outpatient program (IOP).</strong> The PHP meets for six hours, five days a week; the IOP for three hours, four days a week. The average length of stay in treatment is <strong>eight to 12 weeks</strong>.</p> <p>A "transitions" IOP program is also available for those who wish to re-enter community life more promptly, with 10- and 20-hour educational tracks that provide education about alcohol, drugs, and addiction, without any therapeutic component.</p> <p>Genesis prioritizes <strong>evidence-based practices, trauma-informed care,</strong> cultural diversity, and an unconditional positive regard for clients that's intended to improve self-esteem and a greater openness to experience. In the most fundamental terms, programs boil down to <strong>education, individual counseling, group therapy, and family counseling,</strong> consisting of a weekly multi-family session. </p> <p>All clients and their families are also encouraged to participate in <strong>12-step programming</strong> throughout treatment. <strong>Medication management</strong> may also be available for those with co-occurring mental health concerns.</p> <p><a href="https://www.recovery.org/topics/extended-recovery-programs/" target="_blank">Aftercare services</a> are partially provided by the alumni association. The group regularly hosts events for alumni members in an effort to keep their community together and accountable for sober living practices. It also promotes the reintegration into the community with the support needed to maintain a sober lifestyle. </p> <p><strong>STAFF CREDENTIALS</strong></p> <p>The treatment team includes a <strong>board-certified psychiatrist</strong> and licensed and certified addiction counselors. The organization is also part of the 28% of facilities in the U.S. that is <a href="https://www.samhsa.gov/data/sites/default/files/2016_NSSATS.pdf" target="_blank">accredited by CARF</a>. Genesis also operates an in-house counselor training program, ensuring that all staff members are operating from the same "spiritual and ethical principles." The single individual polled by Rehabs.com to date gave the facility four out of five stars for its staff's level of training and experience.</p> <p><strong>WHAT ALUMNI SAY</strong></p> <p>Rehabs.com has yet to receive alumni feedback to date. On Google, there are two five out of five star reviews without any written feedback and a single one out of five-star review.<small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a></small> </p> <p><strong>WHAT FRIENDS & FAMILY SAY</strong></p> <p>The single loved one polled by Rehabs.com to date would recommend Genesis to other. "Really helped my father out in battling alcoholism for about 9 months, which was one of the longer stints," the anonymous reviewer wrote, also providing positive feedback to the facility for minimizing clients' stress so that they could focus on recovery. </p> <p>They gave the facility four out of five stars or higher for the facility's holistic offerings, level of family participation, staff experience, and available counseling options. However, the reviewer felt the center left too much choice to the clients themselves, offering a three-star rating for overall treatment effectiveness.</p> <p><strong>FINANCING</strong></p> <p>Genesis is <strong>a contracted provider with most insurance plans,</strong> including Aetna, Anthem Blue Cross, Blue Shield, Cigna, Kaiser, and ValueOptions. For uninsured clients, treatment prices begin at $<strong>4,000 for a full course</strong>. The costs of treatment are discounted if insurance is not used. The single individual polled by Rehabs.com to date gave the facility three out of five stars for its affordability.</p> <p><strong>CONCLUSION</strong></p> <p>The alumni community and Genesis Program, Inc. work toward creating a stronger connection in the community. Genesis partners with <a href="http://www.genesisprograms.com/category/community/" target="_blank">local AA and NA groups</a> to raise awareness, as well as to give program participants the chance to connect with community groups that can help them after they leave the facility. </p> <p><small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a> <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=Genesis+Programs+ventura+ca&oq=Genesis+Programs+ventura+ca&aqs=chrome..69i57j69i60l3.1655j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#lrd=0x80e84d573ae25881:0xc45c308dff718f9,1," target="_blank">GoogleReviews</a></small></p>
