Safety and Connection for Women Seeking Recovery

Treatment is designed to help women heal in safety and solidarity. Recovery happens in community—through shared experiences, peer connection, and a supportive environment where women can speak freely about trauma, motherhood, and identity. This approach reduces shame and builds trust, which are essential for long-term recovery. Clients find strength in one another while learning to rebuild self-worth and emotional stability.

Healing On Your Own Timeline

There is no fixed timeline, as progress is measured by personal growth and readiness, not days in treatment. Case management, transportation help, and employment support prepare clients to transition back into a more stable daily life. Weekly family seminars and an active alumni network strengthen connection and accountability after treatment. Together, these supports help women sustain recovery and reconnect on healthier terms with loved ones.

Addressing Trauma with Substance Use

Treatment integrates evidence-based treatments like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Moral Reconation Therapy (MRT), and the Sanctuary Model to address trauma’s emotional and physical effects. Group and individual sessions focus on building coping skills, emotional regulation, and relapse prevention. Mindfulness, yoga, and life-skills training complement clinical therapy by helping women practice balance and self-care.
