Support for Diverse Communities

This is a space for people who are often overlooked in traditional treatment settings. Veteran-specific programming includes trauma-informed therapy, case management, and support for co-occurring mental health concerns common in military populations, while also welcoming military families. The facility is also affirming and supportive of LGBTQ+ individuals, offering peer support and counseling services for partners and families. In this welcoming setting, a sense of belonging becomes a powerful part of the healing process.

Holistic Approaches to Reconnect with Mind & Body

Alongside evidence-based care, this program uses holistic therapies that help clients reconnect with their bodies, emotions, and day-to-day rhythms. Yoga therapy, nutrition counseling, and mindfulness practices are woven into the treatment experience, offering tools to manage stress, improve sleep, and build emotional resilience. These approaches can be especially impactful for people who feel disconnected from themselves after long-term substance use.

Dual Diagnosis Care in a Calming Environment

Set on a quiet campus, treatment addresses substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders together, with access to group and individual therapy and medication for addiction treatment (MAT). This structure supports people whose substance use is tied to long-term physical or emotional pain and gives them time to build stability in a consistent and supportive environment.

What Patients Are Saying

Client feedback reflects a deep appreciation for the welcoming environment and dedicated staff. Many describe their experience as life-changing, highlighting the trauma-informed care and emotional safety they found during their stay. While a few have noted minor issues—such as limited food variety or occasional delays due to insurance—most emphasize the powerful sense of support and personal growth that defines their time at Michael’s House.
