ABOUT BEVERLY HAWPE AND ASSOCIATES
Founded in 2001, Beverly Hawpe and Associates is a private organization that provides evaluation services and outpatient treatment for adolescents and adults who are struggling with mental health disorders and problematic substance use. The organization is a state and federal contractor, providing services for those involved in the criminal justice system, though other clients are also welcome.
Beverly Hawpe and Associates is headquartered on a pretty tree-lined street in central Colorado Springs, at the eastern edge of the foothills of the Rocky Mountains.
TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT
The center offers an array of evaluation services, including clinical interviews and psychometric testing, and can provide written reports for court purposes when necessary.
Overall, treatment aims to foster a spirit of personal empowerment. Counseling is provided in individual, group, family, and couples’ settings, and the center is equipped to provide eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), but no further details about specific treatment modalities are provided at the time of this writing. Aside from these therapies, programming for problematic substance use includes medication management, and clients must participate with hair follicle testing and random drug screenings. Adolescent services use the same modalities as adult programming, with an added focus on family involvement.
The facility can also treat adults struggling with a range of mental health disorders, including depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, bipolar disorders, eating disorders, and obsessive compulsive disorders.
Beverly Hawpe offers a dedicated program for healthcare professionals, from a site separate to its main facility that prioritizes discreet treatment.
The facility is open 9 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. weekdays, and closed on weekends.

However, one alum cited administrative problems, particularly with billing and scheduling.
