VATP Admissions Process

How Do I Start The Admissions Process?

We understand that reaching out for help can feel overwhelming. That’s why we’ve made our admissions process as compassionate and stress-free as possible. Whether this is your first time seeking treatment or you’re returning for continued support, we’re ready to meet you with care and understanding.

To begin, simply call us at (866) 377-4409 or complete our online contact form. You’ll be connected with a knowledgeable admissions coordinator who will guide you through the next steps, including scheduling a free assessment with a licensed clinician. This initial conversation is confidential and focused on helping you feel safe and informed.

The First Conversation: What Happens When You Call

When you call Virtue At The Pointe, you’ll be greeted by someone who truly cares. Our admissions team is trained to provide compassionate, judgment-free support from the very first conversation. Whether you’re calling for yourself or a loved one, we’re here to listen and help—not pressure or rush you.

During this initial call, we’ll gather a few basic details about your situation, including your substance use history, any mental health concerns, and your current living environment. This helps us understand your needs and determine the right level of care. You’ll also have a chance to ask questions, talk through any fears, and learn about what to expect next.

If you have insurance, we’ll begin the process of verifying your benefits right away. If you’re paying privately, we’ll walk you through your options. No matter where you’re starting from, the first call is about making sure you feel safe, supported, and one step closer to healing.

Matching You With The Right Level of Care

Finding the right type of care can feel confusing, but we’re here to help you sort it out with empathy and clarity. When you begin the admissions process at Virtue At The Pointe, we take the time to learn your story—not just your symptoms—so we can match you with care that feels right for where you are right now.

Some people need the structure and stability of our inpatient program, while others may benefit more from outpatient support that fits into their daily routine. Whether you need trauma-informed care, dual diagnosis treatment, or simply a safe space to begin healing, we’ll tailor the level of care to your individual needs.

No matter which path is right for you, you’ll be supported by a team that listens, personalizes, and walks with you every step of the way. You don’t have to figure it all out—we’re here to guide you toward what’s best for you.

Your Pre-Treatment Assessment: How We Personalize Your Plan

We know how vulnerable it can feel to open up, especially in the early stages of seeking help. That’s why our pre-treatment assessment is conducted with care, respect, and confidentiality. It’s not about judgment—it’s about understanding who you are and what you need to begin healing.

During this one-on-one conversation with a licensed clinician, you’ll be asked about your substance use, your emotional well-being, and any experiences that may be contributing to your struggle. It’s okay if you don’t have all the answers—just sharing what you can helps us begin shaping your path to recovery.

This assessment is what allows us to build a treatment plan that’s truly personalized. From trauma-informed therapy to dual diagnosis support, every decision we make is based on you, not a generic protocol. You’re a person first—and your treatment should reflect that.

At Virtue At The Pointe’s Milwaukie outpatient center, getting help is as simple as making a call. Whether you’re stepping down from residential treatment or starting your recovery while balancing life’s responsibilities, our admissions process is designed to make that first step feel manageable. From the first phone call, our team is here to guide you into the care that fits your needs and your schedule.

We offer both Partial Hospitalization (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP), each designed to provide strong clinical support without requiring you to pause your life. After a free clinical assessment, we’ll help you determine which program is right for you based on your goals, substance use history, and mental health needs.

Our Milwaukie location provides flexible scheduling, allowing you to attend therapy sessions several times per week while maintaining work, family, or school commitments. Treatment includes individual counseling, group therapy, relapse prevention, and support for co-occurring mental health conditions, all tailored to your specific situation.

Are You Ready to Take the Steps Towards Recovery?

One of the most common concerns we hear is, “Will my insurance cover this?” And the answer is often, “Yes—more than you might think.” At Virtue At The Pointe, we want you to focus on healing, not finances, so we take the burden of insurance questions off your shoulders.

When you reach out, our admissions team will verify your insurance benefits for free and walk you through what’s covered. This includes everything from detox and residential care to outpatient treatment and therapy for co-occurring disorders. Every plan is different, and we’ll take the time to explain yours in plain, honest terms.

You don’t have to figure it out on your own. We’ll help you understand your options, clarify what’s included, and give you a full picture of how your coverage can support your recovery journey.
