EOSIS - Cedar Ridge

A Men-Only Residential Setting Built for Focus

EOSIS – Cedar Ridge is a men’s residential treatment center located just outside Stillwater, in a rustic wooded setting. The quieter, nature-forward environment gives men room to step away from day-to-day triggers and concentrate on recovery. Clients have access to outdoor space and walking trails, plus on-site fitness and wellness options. Living accommodations include shared rooms, with both shared and en suite bathroom options.

Co-Occurring Care With Clear Clinical Structure

Licensed as a co-occurring facility, EOSIS – Cedar Ridge addresses substance use and mental health needs in the same program. Admission starts with an initial assessment, followed by a thorough review of mental health, medical history, and substance use history by a licensed professional. Clients meet one-on-one with both addiction and mental health counselors, with medical care available as needed. Treatment includes evidence-based approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, relapse prevention, and trauma-related counseling. The program also offers medications for addiction treatment (MAT), including buprenorphine and naltrexone, when appropriate.

Groups, Skills Practice, and Wellness Activities

Days are structured around individual sessions, group counseling, and educational programming. Group topics include coping skills, self-discovery, life skills, community meetings, family education, addiction education, mental health education, and spirituality. Clients can also participate in art therapy and recreational activities such as volleyball, basketball, frisbee golf, and time in the gym, options that support stress management and help rebuild healthy routines during residential care.

Practical Transition Planning and Ongoing Support

EOSIS – Cedar Ridge builds discharge planning into treatment so clients leave with a clear next step. As discharge approaches, clients work with a discharge planner to coordinate continuing care, connect with outside providers, and arrange non-emergency transportation to appointments when needed. Ongoing support includes aftercare and continuing care services, peer support and mentoring, connections to self-help groups, assistance accessing social services, and naloxone and overdose education to support safety after treatment.
