The Three Levels to Approaching Recovery

This program organizes treatment through a three-level framework that supports both short-term stabilization and long-term growth. The first level focuses on establishing structure through outpatient, intensive outpatient (IOP), and partial hospitalization (PHP) programs. The second brings loved ones into the process with therapy, workshops, and support groups that strengthen relationships and create a healthier home environment. The third level extends recovery into daily life through the Life Extraordinary Approach Process (LEAP), which includes leadership training, peer-to-peer coaching, and life skills seminars. This model emphasizes that sobriety is only the beginning, and sustained success comes from building strong families and supportive communities.

Building an Extraordinary Life in Sobriety

Recovery is approached as more than abstinence, but as an opportunity for growth in mind, body, and spirit. The team uses evidence-based therapies alongside holistic practices to help clients discover what is possible for them and their families. Each person is treated as capable of transformation, not defined by addiction or diagnosis. Families are viewed as essential partners in treatment, and alumni support ensures that recovery continues long after formal programming ends.

Flexible Treatment Programs for Those with Real-Life Responsibilities

The partial hospitalization program (PHP) provides full-day, structured treatment with the flexibility of returning home at night. The intensive outpatient program (IOP) offers a step down in intensity with options that accommodate work, school, and family commitments, including evening sessions. The outpatient program (OP) provides ongoing accountability and support as clients progress in recovery. All programs are equipped to treat dual diagnosis conditions.
