Your Road to Recovery
Begins Here

Every person’s journey is unique which is why we meet each of our clients where they are. This means that our medical treatment plans are not ‘one size fits all’, but are tailored to each individual client so they are able to achieve greater success.

The process of treatment begins with a phone call by you, an affected family member or loved one, requesting an assessment. Tellurian does not automatically assume a diagnosis of alcoholism, addiction or other problems, without first conducting a free, confidential assessment and evaluation by one of the center’s highly trained and certified staff.

When you call, you will speak with an admissions counselor who will guide you through a brief, confidential telephone assessment, followed by an appointment with a counselor. Once the free and confidential screening is completed, and if treatment is recommended, the counselor will determine the most appropriate level of care based on the individual needs of the patient.

If your loved one is not acting like themselves and you see signs like the ones listed below, please call our Patient Services department at (608) 222-7311 or email PatientServices@Tellurian.org.

Signs of addiction may include*:

• Sudden weight loss or gain
• Change in sleep patterns- sometimes sleeping to much and other times not at all
• Abnormal periods of extreme energy or chattiness
• Chronic upper respiratory issues (e.g., nosebleeds or sinusitis) which are signs of drugs being snorted
• Utilizing incense, dryer sheets or perfume to hide smoke or smells related to drugs
• Increased need for money
• Evidence of drug paraphernalia such as pipes, rolling papers, etc.
• Always carrying eye drops which can be used to mask bloodshot eyes
• Worsening dental problems which can be a sign of methamphetamine use
• Prescription drugs missing from family or friends

Tellurian accepts most local and national health insurance plans. Our Patient Services team is trained to work with insurance providers. They are experts at making a sometimes challenging system less stressful, and will help you navigate the benefits you may have available for treatment. They will guide you every step of the way. In order to do this, our team will need your full name and some basic information usually found on your insurance card.

Call Tellurian at 608-222-7311 for a free and confidential screening that will determine what type of treatment, if any, is most appropriate. From there, the Tellurian team will work with you to provide insurance and admissions information, and details related to your treatment plan.

We work very hard to get patients in to the appropriate treatment programs quickly. At times, there are short wait periods that are unavoidable. But, our staff will do everything possible to make
accommodations quickly, or help provide alternatives when necessary.

Tellurian offers many different treatment programs so that we can address the individual needs of every client. Once you have completed our free, confidential screening process, and a treatment plan has been established for you, an admissions counselor will walk you through costs, insurance coverages, and payment options.

Your length of stay depends on which programs you are enrolled in, and the progress you have while there. Our Residential Treatment is the most intensive form of care, and provides a safe, secure, and structured living environment on our Main Campus for up to 90 days. Treatment includes individual and group therapy, spiritual care groups, holistic healing and specialized counseling for problems such as anger management, domestic violence, and mental health issues.

Tellurian specializes in substance use disorders with an emphasis on co-occurring mental health disorders. Many patients struggling with substance use disorders have accompanying mental health or behavioral health issues, such as depression, anxiety disorders, or post-traumatic stress disorders. To support these clients and most effectively address their disease, mental health counseling is integrated into the treatment regimen. The Tellurian Medical Director, a specialist in addiction medicine and member of the American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM), provides medical oversight, including health screens and diagnosis of underlying health issues. Psychiatric care is provided as appropriate or recommended, assuring that any co-occurring mental health issues are identified and treated along with the addiction.

Once you complete our free and confidential screening process, your care team will provide a complete list of what you will need to bring to treatment. They will be able to answer any specific questions at that time based on the program that you will be attending.

Once our clients have celebrated certain recovery milestones, visitors are welcome during structured, pre-arranged, visiting hours only in designated areas, which may be outdoors for some programs. Our intake Coordinator will discuss this policy more in depth before admission, making sure all of your questions are answered. While we understand that relationships with family and friends are important and necessary to the recovery process, the health and safety of our patients and staff is our first priority.
