Adapted Treatment Plans

The center provides an integrative path to recovery designed for clients seeking peace, purpose, and long-term change. Traditional therapies are blended with advanced holistic care to heal the mind, body, and spirit together. Each client’s experience begins with a personalized assessment that informs a treatment plan built around their goals, health needs, and personal motivations.

Full Continuum of Substance Use Care

Clients have access to a full continuum of care, including residential treatment, partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP), and continuing care programs. Each level provides structure, accountability, and progression toward independence. The residential program emphasizes 24-hour support, daily therapy sessions and 12-step meetings, and peer connection. As clients advance through PHP and IOP, they practice balancing therapy with real-world responsibilities, integrating recovery into daily life. This tiered design allows clients to move through treatment at their own pace.

Evidence-Based and Holistic Therapies

The center integrates science-based treatments with complementary wellness practices to address the full spectrum of substance use and co-occurring mental health concerns. Core approaches include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), trauma-informed counseling, and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR). These evidence-based methods are supported by holistic practices such as amino acid therapy for neurochemical balance, yoga, acupuncture detoxification, meditation, and nutrition education. Together, they help clients regulate mood, reduce cravings, and improve emotional clarity.

Positive Third-Party-Tracked Outcomes

Independent, third-party outcome tracking shows that 64% of alumni report being substance-free 30 days after treatment and 47% remain substance-free six months later — outperforming national averages. Additionally, 84% of alumni report improved emotional health and 71% report stronger family relationships. Beyond clinical outcomes, the center aims to help clients gain the confidence, coping skills, and purpose needed to sustain long-term substance-free living.
