About

About Copper Springs

Copper Springs is a behavioral health hospital in Avondale, Arizona, that provides inpatient and outpatient mental health and substance use services to adults across the West Valley and broader Phoenix metro. The campus at 10550 West McDowell Road is one of two Copper Springs locations in the area, with a second site in Gilbert, and operates as part of the Lifepoint Health behavioral health network.

Clinically, the hospital offers a full continuum that begins with medically supervised detox for those withdrawing from alcohol or drugs, followed by inpatient programming for individuals in psychiatric crisis or needing 24-hour stabilization. Step-down options include intensive outpatient and standard outpatient mental health and addiction tracks, along with online therapy for clients who need remote access. Specialized programming includes Help for Heroes for first responders, veterans, and active-duty military, and an ECT therapy program for treatment-resistant psychiatric conditions.

The clinical approach is evidence-based, anchored by cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy and supported by trauma-informed care, medication management, and structured group programming. Conditions treated span depression, anxiety, PTSD, borderline personality disorder, bipolar disorder, psychosis, suicidal ideation, and alcohol and drug addiction. Dual-diagnosis care is delivered for individuals whose mental health and substance use concerns overlap.

The physical environment is designed to support recovery, with well-maintained patient rooms, purpose-built therapeutic spaces, peaceful outdoor courtyards, activity-based therapy rooms, and welcoming communal areas. Copper Springs is Joint Commission accredited, accepts Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, state insurance, sliding-scale arrangements, and private commercial plans, and offers ASL services for Deaf and hard-of-hearing patients.
