About Redpoint

One team, six Colorado offices.

Licensed clinicians, a psychiatrist as medical director, and the admissions team you reach on the first call.

Our clinical model

Diverse in practice, unified in purpose.

The substance use and mental health team at The Redpoint Center is diverse in practice and unified in purpose. That is not a slogan about culture. It is how the clinical work is organized: no two people arrive with the same history, so the team is built to offer a range of therapeutic approaches rather than one house method everybody is routed through.

The evidence points the same direction. The National Institute on Drug Abuse notes that treatment should be tailored to address each patient's drug use patterns and drug-related medical, mental, and social problems, and that care has to address the needs of the whole person to work. Matching a person to the right clinician and the right modality is most of that job, and it is the reason this roster is as varied as it is.

Every part of a client's care is overseen by this team and delivered on site at our Colorado offices, rather than handed off to an outside provider you would have to find and coordinate yourself. Medical oversight sits with our Medical Director, Ryan Hashem, MD, a board-certified psychiatrist, so the medical side of a plan is settled inside the program rather than referred out.

We are not a hospital where therapists come and go each week. Clinicians here come from residential treatment, community mental health, and outpatient substance use settings, and between them the team holds more than two hundred years of combined treatment experience. That number matters less than what it produces: the person you start with is generally the person you finish with, and staff turnover is not something clients have to absorb.

Families are part of the work too. Redpoint runs family support groups for the people around a client, because recovery rarely happens in isolation. SAMHSA's guidance on family therapy in substance use treatment reports that family counseling is positively associated with increased treatment engagement and retention, and improved outcomes for individual clients and their families.

Credentials

What the letters after a name mean.

Behavioral health credentials are not interchangeable. Here is what our clinicians actually hold, and what each one takes to earn.

MD

Doctor of Medicine. Our Medical Director is a board-certified psychiatrist.

LCSW, LSW, MSW

Clinical social work. Trained to treat the person and the circumstances around them: family, housing, work, and the systems in between.

LPC and LPCC

Licensed Professional Counselor, and Candidate. Both hold a master's degree in counseling. The LPC has finished the state's post-degree hours and exam; the LPCC is working through them.

LAC and CAS

Colorado addiction counseling credentials. Licensed Addiction Counselor is the state's master's level license; Certified Addiction Specialist sits below it on the same ladder.

Supervision and candidacy

Clinicians working toward full licensure practice under a licensed clinical supervisor, which Colorado requires until those post-degree hours are complete. That supervision is the program's to arrange, not yours.

Training beyond licensure

Several clinicians carry additional training their license does not require, including EMDR and Motivational Interviewing.

From a client

Safety, care, compassion, understanding without judgment were all key factors to my success. The entire team was outstanding! From the moment you walked in the door and were greeted with a smile at the front desk, to all of the therapists, and even the unseen heroes in the background who are the administrators, and work tirelessly to make sure all of your insurance, medical processing is done to the highest level.
