About Desert Recovery Centers – Glendale

Desert Recovery Centers runs a ten-bed residential home for adult men on West Frier Drive in Glendale, Arizona, and it is men only without exception, so a woman or an adolescent is not a referral this address can take. Arizona licenses the house as an adult behavioral health residential facility under license BH9449, with a capacity of ten, and the owner is a private for-profit company.

Ten beds in a 7,500 square foot house produce a different experience from a facility with a hundred: the published schedule runs twenty-seven to thirty hours of group therapy a week plus individual sessions two to four times, led by doctoral-level clinicians. An Nguyen, a licensed clinical psychologist, is co-founder and clinical director, and Dr Greg Carr is medical director.

Substance use is the focus, covering alcohol, opioids including heroin and fentanyl, methamphetamine, cocaine and crack and other stimulants, with trauma and post-traumatic stress treated alongside it. Medical detox is not provided on site but is coordinated through partner facilities, and the operator’s partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs run from a separate Phoenix outpatient center on North 108th Avenue.

Treatment Services at Desert Recovery Centers

Residential care is what this address provides, and the intensity is the selling point: twenty-seven to thirty hours of group work a week is a near-full-time schedule, and individual therapy two to four times a week is more contact than many residential programs offer. Doctoral-level clinicians, a psychiatrist and a clinical director carry the clinical load with an admissions team alongside.

The methods named are cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, EMDR, motivational interviewing, trauma therapy and family sessions, with nutrition and fitness support and psychiatric medication management. Medication assisted treatment appears among the program’s modalities without a named medication, so a man already on a prescription for opioid or alcohol dependence should ask directly whether it continues here and who writes it.

Admission is open around the clock on (623) 305-0496 or through the online form, and after a free benefits check and a conversation about payment options most clients start treatment within forty-eight hours of the first call. Anyone needing withdrawal management is detoxed through a partner facility first. Length of stay is not published as policy, so ask what is being proposed.

Desert Recovery Centers Address, Location and Contact Information

The house stands at 8105 West Frier Drive, Glendale, Arizona 85303, on a suburban Glendale residential street in Maricopa County, reachable at any hour on (623) 305-0496 or by email at contact@desertrecoverycenters.com. State licensing records list a different number, (480) 784-7884, for the same address, so the number published by the program is the one to use.

Phoenix lies twelve miles southeast and Maricopa thirty-six miles south, which puts the house inside the metropolitan area rather than out in the desert. That proximity matters on discharge, because the operator’s partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs are in Phoenix at 4160 North 108th Avenue, close enough that a man stepping down does not have to relocate.

The property is a 7,500 square foot home with a pool, tennis and basketball courts, a billiards room, a massage room, a gym, a gourmet kitchen and outdoor dining, and rooms are private or semi-private. Admissions run twenty-four hours a day, so there is no intake window to miss, and desertrecoverycenters.com carries the program description.

How Much Does Treatment at Desert Recovery Centers Cost?

No nightly or monthly rate is published, but the insurance position is unusually specific. Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield in both PPO and selected HMO form, Cigna and UnitedHealthcare are handled out of network, while TRICARE through TriWest Healthcare Alliance is in network for residential care, which makes this a serious option for a military family.

Medicare, Medicaid and other state-funded insurance are explicitly not accepted, which rules the house out for a man whose only coverage is AHCCCS. Cash-pay options exist and financing can be discussed. Before admission, establish the out-of-network reimbursement rate your plan will actually pay, the deductible still outstanding and what the house charges for the balance.

The admissions team will contact an insurer at no cost to confirm coverage, deductibles and out-of-pocket exposure and then explain the result, which is worth taking up given how much turns on out-of-network math. For context, statewide private-pay residential rates in Arizona run $6,000 to $25,000 a month and medical detox $7,500 to $24,000; those are state ranges, not this house’s prices.

Desert Recovery Centers Reviews

Arizona Department of Health Services records show license BH9449, an active adult behavioral health residential facility with a capacity of ten at West Frier Drive, which is the firmest fact on this record and settles both the bed count and the adult-only scope. The federal provider identifier is 1447077961 and the operator is a private for-profit limited liability company.

Accreditation is claimed rather than traceable: the operator states Joint Commission accreditation in its own material, and that is not established by a public register entry on this record, while CARF holds no provider page for the house. The year the program opened is not stated anywhere. Both are reasonable things to raise with the admissions team before committing to a bed.

Information here is drawn from Arizona licensing records, federal provider records and the program’s own published material. RehabSeekers hosts reviews, and none have been left for Desert Recovery Centers yet. In a ten-bed house the experience depends heavily on who else is there and on the group schedule, so a former client’s account would tell the next man more than any license entry.
