About WestBridge
WestBridge was founded in 2001 by the West family as a private 501(c)(3) non-profit treatment program in Manchester, NH.
The Wests wanted to provide dual diagnosis services so families would not have to experience the frustration and pain that they went through in trying to find simultaneous and integrated care. In wanting to find services that were proven to work, they sought out the best evidence-based practices.
Our programs include:
- Residential Treatment at The Commons
- Outpatient Community Integration Program
- Intensive Outpatient Program
WestBridge is a unique clinical setting where evidence-based treatment for mental illness and addiction are truly integrated, community-based, individualized and family-centered.
Today, WestBridge is nationally recognized for the positive recovery outcomes achieved by our participants experiencing mental illness with or without substance use. Our founders’ original dream is carried forward every day with each participant and family we work with.
