At Maverick Behavioral Health, we believe people recover through people.

The strength of your healing is directly tied to the team walking beside you. That is why we built a program anchored in clinical expertise, authentic compassion, and a real commitment to seeing lives change. When you come to Maverick, you are met by professionals who understand addiction, mental health, and what it takes to start over.

A Team Committed to Real Change

Every member of our staff brings experience in addiction treatment, trauma recovery, and behavioral health. Just as important, they bring patience, humility, and respect for the process you are in. Recovery is not just about stopping a substance. It is about rebuilding how you think, feel, and live. Our team works together to create a safe, structured environment where that level of change is possible.

Medical Director

Maverick Behavioral Health is led by a board-certified MD who specializes in both addiction medicine and mental health. This medical leadership ensures that your care is not only compassionate, but clinically precise and safe from day one.
Under the guidance of our Medical Director, clients receive:

Having a physician who understands both addiction and psychiatric needs allows us to treat the whole person, not just symptoms in isolation.

Therapists

Our therapists provide the emotional and psychological backbone of treatment. In individual sessions, you will have space to unpack what led you here, understand the patterns that keep you stuck, and learn healthier ways to handle stress, triggers, trauma, and relationships. The focus is on real, sustainable change so you can build a life that actually works outside of treatment.

Group Facilitators

Group therapy is where connection and community begin to form. Our group facilitators lead structured, honest, and supportive groups where clients can share their experiences, learn from others, and practice new skills in real time. Many of our facilitators have walked their own recovery journey and bring a level of understanding that only lived experience can offer.

Support Staff

Our support staff are the steady presence you feel throughout the day. They help keep the environment safe, organized, and consistent so you can stay focused on healing. From day-to-day structure to encouragement when you need it most, they are a vital part of the Maverick experience.
How to Start Working With Our Team

Getting started should not add more stress to your life. We keep the admissions process clear, straightforward, and supportive from the very first contact.

Here is how it works:

  1. Connect with our intake team
    They listen to your story, answer your questions, and get a clear picture of what you are dealing with. They also help gather your insurance information and talk through financial options so you understand what is possible.
  2. Choose the right level of care
    Based on your needs, we help you decide the most appropriate path, whether that is detox through a partnered facility, outpatient services at Maverick, or a combination of support. Our goal is to place you where you have the strongest chance of success.
  3. Commit to the process
    We provide structure, clinical guidance, and support. What we ask from you is honesty, consistency, and willingness. Recovery is a partnership. When you show up for yourself, our team will show up with you, step by step.

Paying for Addiction and Mental Health Treatment

The cost of treatment can feel intimidating, especially if you are not sure what your insurance covers. You do not have to figure that out alone. When you reach out, our team can take your insurance information, contact your provider, and verify your benefits for you.

From there, we explain what is covered, what is not, and what your out-of-pocket responsibility might be. Many people discover that treatment is more accessible than they expected once their coverage is clearly explained.

Take the First Step with Maverick Behavioral Health

There is never a perfect time to face addiction or mental health struggles. There is only the decision to begin. Whether you are exploring outpatient care, therapy options, or support for a loved one, our team is ready to walk you through what comes next.

You do not have to do this alone. Our staff is not here just to manage symptoms. We are here to help you remember who you are, rebuild what was broken, and create a future that feels worth staying sober and stable for. When you choose Maverick Behavioral Health, you choose a team that takes your healing personally and is invested in your success long after you leave our care.
