Beautiful Natural Surroundings and Wilderness Therapy
Time in the great outdoors is an important part of the center’s therapeutic experience. The forested land is lush, green and filled with hiking trails, waterfalls, and plenty of space for activities. Clients enjoy wilderness and recreational therapies including a rock climbing wall, a high ropes course, and a labyrinth. Meditation gardens are onsite for yoga and mindfulness practices, and group outings in nature, including camping trips, offer a great way for clients to connect with nature, each other, and themselves.
Spacious, Luxurious Amenities
Clients stay in private suites with private bathrooms and have access to devices including phones, laptops, and tablets. High-speed WiFi is available in every room. Spacious common rooms with large windows invite plenty of light and scenic views of the mountains. There is an indoor yoga and meditation studio, large lounges for social gatherings, an auditorium for movie nights, a full fitness center, and a chapel for those who wish to attend spiritual services. Volleyball and basketball courts are onsite for clients to relieve stress and enjoy themselves as a team.
Outpatient Adolescent Services
The adolescent outpatient program is designed for high‑school‑aged teenagers, offering group and individual therapy delivered by certified recovery coaches. The program features family counseling, support groups, and secure telehealth sessions to keep teens connected, including during school hours when needed. Designed to reduce stress from academics and peer pressure, services empower teens and families to build communication skills and coping strategies toward a resilient recovery foundation.
Strong Family Focus and Community Connection
Family support is emphasized as part of recovery from the beginning of treatment. Weekly virtual family education sessions help loved ones understand addiction and create opportunities for family members to rebuild trust with one another. Families can also join clients’ in-person therapy sessions and access post-treatment support. The center also provides 12-step facilitation, including Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and Narcotics Anonymous (NA) groups. After discharge, clients are invited to alumni events and peer-led recovery groups and are offered individual coaching.
What Clients Say
Clients often mention the supportive staff, the calming environment, and the range of holistic options that help them feel grounded during treatment. Some highlight the value of the family and alumni programs in maintaining connection after discharge. There are some mixed experiences with policies, reflecting the individuality of recovery journeys.
