Comprehensive, Tiered Recovery Support

The center provides a structured approach to recovery through its yearlong, three-tier program. Beginning with a 12-week intensive outpatient program (IOP), clients progress to a 28-week early recovery group and complete treatment with a 12-week relapse prevention program. This design offers consistent therapeutic support during the first year of recovery, helping individuals build stability and confidence over time.

Trauma-Informed, Evidence-Based Care

Care is designed to address the full impact of substance use, recognizing how past experiences shape present challenges. Staff build treatment plans around each person’s strengths, using approaches supported by research to create lasting change. The trauma-informed framework ensures that clients can openly process experiences without fear of judgment. Through this approach, the center helps clients develop practical tools for navigating daily life and rebuilding self-worth.

Integrated Support for Co-Occurring Mental Health Conditions

Programs address substance use and co-occurring mental health issues together. Clients receive coordinated care that blends therapeutic strategies, skill-building, and education to help them understand how these conditions interact. Individual, group, and family sessions provide a safe space to explore patterns, improve communication, and strengthen relationships. This equips clients with practical coping tools and fosters emotional resilience.

Holistic and Complementary Therapies

Alongside evidence-based treatment, the center offers holistic practices designed to restore balance to both mind and body. Clients may participate in yoga to improve flexibility and reduce stress, mindfulness meditation to increase emotional awareness, and acupuncture to promote relaxation and ease physical tension. Aromatherapy introduces calming scents to enhance mood, while Reiki provides gentle, energy-based healing. These therapies work together to help reduce cravings and allow clients to reconnect with their bodies.

Recovery Housing for Men

At a separate location, the center offers recovery housing for men, combining sober living with a structured daily routine. Residents share responsibility for daily chores, attend weekly house meetings, and participate in both 12-step and science-based SMART Recovery meetings. Monthly volunteer activities encourage community engagement, while optional services such as acupuncture treatments and religious services support holistic wellness. The program creates a supportive environment where men can strengthen recovery skills and work toward independent living.
