About Community Bridges Inc

Community Bridges Inc in Payson, Arizona, operates Payson Transition Point, a residential substance use treatment program run by Community Bridges, Inc., a behavioral health provider founded in 1982 with services across Arizona and several other states. They take an integrated approach, pairing medical and behavioral care so that physical health, psychiatric, and addiction needs are addressed together. Each person works with staff to identify their own treatment needs and build a plan for both short-term stability and longer-term recovery.

Residential care combines individual and group therapy with peer support, life skills training, recovery goal setting, and relapse prevention groups. Residents are introduced to both 12-Step and SMART Recovery, and programming also includes anger management, expressive art, recreation-based recovery groups, and Traditional Healing with talking circles. Addiction medication and urgent psychiatric assessment are available, and care is overseen by licensed medical practitioners, master’s-level clinicians, and peer support specialists. As discharge approaches, they focus on discharge planning, referrals, bridge prescriptions for medical or psychiatric medications, and a transition into outpatient services.
