Known for its blended suburban and outdoorsy scene, Lakewood, Colorado, is home to Jefferson Center for Mental Health Lakewood. For 66 years, this community behavioral health nonprofit has provided a full range of addiction, mental health, and wellness services. They welcome people of all ages, providing specialized programs, including medication assisted treatment.
They strive to make care easily accessible for all. They accept most major insurance plans, Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, and other government funded programs. If you don’t have insurance, they work with you to develop a personalized payment plan. You may also qualify for sliding fee discounts.
Specialized Care for Expectant Mothers
Another thing that caught my eye was their services for pregnant women. They help you build a healthier life for you and your baby. The staff can help pregnant clients safely undergo medication assisted treatment.
A great thing about this location is they have a pharmacy on-site. You can be prescribed your medication and pick it up at the same place, making care more convenient for you.
Mobile Medication Assisted Treatment
I like that Jefferson Center for Mental Health offers a Mobile MAT program. This grant funded initiative assists those aged 16 and older battling opioid addiction and other co-occurring conditions. They bring MAT to you, ensuring you’ll have access even if you can’t get to the Lakewood facility.
You can also access screenings, telepsychiatry, counseling, peer specialist support, treatment referrals, and more. The RV stops at towns nearby Lakewood such as Conifer and Black Hawk.
Wellness Classes To Promote Recovery
Their wellness classes also stood out to me. You can participate in holistic healing to promote overall wellness. These classes focus on stress management, budgeting, yoga, creative writing, healthy routines, and more. Each is available in person and virtually, and free under Medicaid.
Levels of Care
-
Inpatient
Inpatient and residential programs provide round-the-clock medical and emotional support as you live at the treatment facility. This level of care may be recommended if you have severe addictions or mental health conditions since it removes outside distractions and allows you to focus solely on therapy.
-
Outpatient
In outpatient therapy, you’ll attend therapy sessions several times each week while living at home. This is ideal if you have a strong support system and a lower risk of relapse. Outpatient treatment offers flexibility to maintain work, school or family obligations.
Detox Service Setting

Inpatient Detox
Inpatient detox occurs in a dedicated treatment facility. You’ll live there around the clock and receive intensive medical support and supervision to help manage your withdrawal symptoms. It is suitable for individuals with moderate to severe addictions as it ensures a stable detox environment.

Outpatient Detox
Outpatient detox gives you access to medically supervised withdrawal services while still allowing you to live at home. You’ll attend a clinic for treatment and monitoring. This flexible option is suitable for those with mild to moderate withdrawal symptoms who have strong support systems.
