A Purposeful Approach to Recovery
At the heart of the center’s philosophy is a strengths-based model that shifts the focus from what’s wrong to what’s possible. Rather than centering treatment only on abstinence, the program integrates evidence-based therapies with positive psychology to help clients uncover purpose, meaning, and tools for resilience. This approach includes daily practices such as meditation, gratitude exercises, and creative expression. By emphasizing optimism and personal growth, clients learn to replace destructive behaviors with fulfilling ones, build confidence in their recovery, and reconnect with values that support long-term wellness.
Flexible Dual-Diagnosis Outpatient Programs
The center offers multiple levels of outpatient care to meet different recovery needs. This includes dual-diagnosis care for clients with mental health concerns. The partial hospitalization program (PHP) provides the most intensive structure, with at least 20 hours per week of therapy, doctor visits, and group support. The intensive outpatient program (IOP) runs 9–12 hours per week, ideal for those returning to work, school, or family life. For clients stepping down, the supportive outpatient program (SOP) focuses on reinforcing coping skills and maintaining progress. In addition, virtual IOP and teletherapy options ensure access to care when attending in person isn’t possible.
Therapies and Holistic Activities
Treatment combines evidence-based therapies with holistic care. Clients participate in individual counseling, group therapy, and optional family sessions. The center also provides 12-step facilitation and encourages long-term meeting attendance. To promote balance and stress management, the center offers yoga, mindfulness, and art and music therapy. This mix of approaches helps clients process difficult emotions, develop healthier coping skills, and strengthen connections with others.
Inclusive Support and Community Connections
The center emphasizes creating a safe and welcoming environment for all clients. Programs are inclusive of diverse backgrounds, including LGBTQIA+ individuals, and fosters a culture of respect and affirmation. Services are offered in both English and Spanish to make care more accessible. By promoting inclusivity and compassion, the program strengthens each individual’s sense of belonging and supports long-term healing beyond treatment.
