About Freedom

During their 4-week+ stay, clients receive clinical therapy sessions with their psychologist and addiction therapist, daily wellness activities and exercise, and unique excursions to Bali temples, rice fields, and other natural wonders.
Freedom strives to heal the pain from the past, provide effective treatment for addiction, empower individuals to cultivate healthy habits in the present, and pave the way for an exciting and fulfilling future.
Freedom’s masters-level clinicians include a psychologist, addiction therapists, and an on-call psychiatrist. Their support staff includes a yoga teacher, support workers, and talented chefs. Clients meet with their psychologist 3 times a week and their addiction therapist twice weekly. Freedom also provides educational sessions on addiction, recovery, relapse prevention, and coping strategies. Their Seven Pillars of self-care help implement skills and tools learned.
Treatment begins with a medical consultation and detox medications, if needed. Freedom uses a variety of evidence-based and holistic therapies to uncover and address the trauma behind addiction. Their evidence-based therapies include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and internal family systems therapy. Clients can also enjoy yoga, art therapy, and meditation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Freedom accept Medicaid?
SAMHSA data does not list Medicaid among this facility's accepted payment types. Call +61-3-6160-3523 directly to confirm — coverage may have changed since the last SAMHSA sync. You can also browse other IL centers that accept Medicaid.
What level of care does Freedom offer?

Specific therapy approaches are not listed in SAMHSA data. Contact the facility for clinical details.
How do I start treatment at Freedom?
Call the facility directly at +61-3-6160-3523 for an intake assessment. Our free 24/7 helpline (+1 (205) 973-2878) can also help you compare programs, verify insurance, and navigate options. No physician referral is required.
Is treatment confidential?
Yes. Federal law (42 CFR Part 2) provides strict confidentiality protections for substance use treatment records — stricter than HIPAA. Records cannot be disclosed without written consent, even to family, employers, or law enforcement.
What happens when you call? (general intake process)

Most treatment centers follow a 4-step intake: (1) confidential assessment — substance history, mental health, insurance, preferences (protected by 42 CFR Part 2); (2) insurance verification — facility contacts your plan to confirm coverage and out-of-pocket costs; (3) level-of-care recommendation — clinical staff match you to detox, residential, PHP, IOP, or outpatient based on severity; (4) admission typically within 24–48 hours. Timing varies by facility and bed availability.
