Overview

he Bette Center is a 35-bed, long-term, residential intensive treatment program for men or women with addiction or substance abuse issues.  The Center is located in Albany, New York and serves a diverse clientele who vary by age, race, gender, and cultural backgrounds.
The Bette Center utilizes an underlying ‘Stages of Change’ model that enables clients to take the steps necessary to live successful, substance-free lives.
Stages of Change
Stage I  Pre-Contemplative
? When clients become acclimated to the treatment environment yet may still be reluctant to acknowledge personal problems and the need to change their behaviors
Stage II  Contemplation
? When clients begin to recognize the negative impact substance abuse has on their lives, and start asking why they made the life choices they did
Stage III  Preparation
? When clients have decided to change and begin to plan their steps toward recovery
Stage IV  Action
? When clients begin trying new behaviors that enable them to live substance-free lives
Stage V  Maintenance
? When clients fully accept and adopt these behaviors on a long-term basis
At the same time, however, the Bette Center recognizes the individual needs of clients and tailors our services to their personal immediate and long-term goals and objectives.
At the Bette Center the length of stay depends on the needs and progress of the client and varies greatly.
