About Headwaters

At Headwaters, busy professionals facing substance use or co-occurring mental health challenges can finally breathe easy. Beyond addiction, they can treat sleep disturbances, grief and loss, and love & sex addiction. From physician-led medical detox and residential rehab, each level of care is delivered with rigor and compassion.
Headwaters understands the pressures faced by high‐stakes professionals, so every element of care is designed around discretion and efficiency. From day one, clients meet with the multidisciplinary team for a thorough assessment that maps their personal and professional stressors, then crafts a targeted treatment plan—whether it’s focused one‐on‐one counseling sessions scheduled around meetings or medication-assisted support to manage withdrawal safely. Throughout the week, professionals can recharge with mind-body breaks—like sunrise yoga on the private terrace, guided meditation between conference calls, or sound-healing sessions that reset focus.
After detox, clients regain full access to their cell phones and laptops with secure, high-speed WiFi—so vital emails and urgent calls stay within reach without disrupting healing. Between clinical sessions, guests can unwind with acupuncture, massage, and experiential therapies or enjoy five-star cuisine prepared by an on-site chef in private dining areas—and frequent beach excursions add a touch of sunshine and salt air.
Headwaters makes sure that support doesn’t end at discharge. They begin building an aftercare program for each client from day one. Based on comprehensive assessments, each client leaves with a personalized roadmap for recovery, complete with therapy check-ins, peer support, and guidance for families

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Headwaters accept Medicaid?
SAMHSA data does not list Medicaid among this facility's accepted payment types. Call (855) 608-2279 directly to confirm — coverage may have changed since the last SAMHSA sync. You can also browse other NY centers that accept Medicaid.
What level of care does Headwaters offer?
Does Headwaters have specialized programs?
SAMHSA data does not list specialized populations. The facility may still offer specialty tracks — confirm directly.

Specific therapy approaches are not listed in SAMHSA data. Contact the facility for clinical details.
How do I start treatment at Headwaters?
Call the facility directly at (855) 608-2279 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.
