A sample of Westwood's completed behavioral health transactions — from a 65-bed detox and residential facility in New Jersey to multi-state outpatient portfolios, a non-profit adolescent program, and a telehealth PHP/IOP platform.

The following is a sample of Westwood's closed transactions. Our full transaction history spans many more deals across the behavioral health continuum — representing both sellers and qualified buyers with absolute discretion.

Deal details are presented in general terms, without identifying parties, prices, or specific locations, to protect client confidentiality. More detail can be discussed under NDA.

Sale

Detox & Residential | New Jersey

New Jersey

65-bed detox and residential facility in New Jersey. Transaction included licensing, zoning coordination, and negotiation and execution of a new facility lease.

What made it complex

  • 65 licensed detox and residential beds in a single transaction

  • Municipal zoning work required at the facility
  • Negotiation and execution of a new facility lease as part of the deal
Sale-Leaseback

Sober Living + PHP/IOP | Midwest

Midwest

100-bed sober living program with PHP/IOP services across 10 separate properties. Structured as a sale-leaseback transaction, preserving operational continuity for the buyer.

What made it complex

  • 100 beds across 10 separate properties — a portfolio, not a single asset
  • Two distinct service lines: sober living and PHP/IOP
  • Structured as a sale-leaseback to preserve operational continuity for the buyer
  • Lease terms negotiated property by property
Sale

Multi-State Portfolio | Southwest & West Coast

Southwest & West Coast

Portfolio of 6 treatment centers spanning the Southwest and West Coast, offering the full continuum of care from detox through outpatient services.

What made it complex

  • 6 treatment centers transacted as one portfolio
  • Two geographic regions with separate regulatory environments
  • Full continuum of care represented, from detox through outpatient
Sale

Outpatient Portfolio | Southeast

Southeast

Multiple outpatient programs across the Southeast covering both substance use disorder (SUD) and mental health (MH) services across diverse markets.

What made it complex

  • Both SUD and mental health service lines in the same portfolio
  • Diverse local markets with different payer dynamics
Non-Profit

Non-Profit Adolescent Residential | Pennsylvania

Rural Pennsylvania

Non-profit adolescent residential program in rural Pennsylvania. Transaction involved complex grant funding structures and mission-aligned buyer sourcing.

What made it complex

  • Non-profit organizational structure and governance
  • Complex grant funding structures requiring careful handling through closing
  • Adolescent residential programming, a narrower buyer pool than adult SUD
  • Buyer sourcing focused on mission alignment, not just price
Sale

Multi-State Outpatient Portfolio | Diverse Payer Mix

Multi-state

Multi-state outpatient portfolio with a broad and diversified payer mix, providing stable revenue across commercial, Medicaid, and managed care contracts.

What made it complex

  • Multiple states, multiple Medicaid programs and managed care contracts
  • Revenue diversified across commercial, Medicaid, and managed care payers
  • Payer diversification positioned as the core value story
Sale

Telehealth Platform | PHP & IOP

National

Telehealth-based PHP and IOP platform with established commercial and Medicaid contracts, positioned for scalable national expansion.

What made it complex

  • Telehealth delivery model with state-by-state licensing considerations
  • Established commercial and Medicaid contracts supporting the revenue base
  • Positioned around national scalability rather than a single market

What these transactions have in common

Every one of these deals required something beyond a valuation: a license that had to transfer cleanly, a lease that had to be renegotiated, a portfolio that had to be sold as one story instead of seven, or a non-profit board that needed a buyer who would not dismantle the mission. That work is the difference between a transaction that closes and one that reprices three times and dies in diligence.

Answers

Common questions

What kinds of behavioral health businesses has Westwood transacted?

Detox and residential, sober living, PHP and IOP, outpatient portfolios, non-profit adolescent care, and telehealth platforms, across multiple states.

Are closed transactions representative of what my facility would sell for?

No. Each transaction reflects its own payer mix, licensure, real estate, and structure. Closed deals show the range of what transacts, not a valuation for your business.

Do you handle multi-site and platform transactions?

Yes. Multi-site portfolios and private-equity-backed platforms are handled on the sell-your-behavioral-health-facility path rather than the single-facility one.

Can you share deal values?

No. Terms are confidential to the parties. What we can describe is the structure and the level of care.
