Scenic Rocky Mountain Setting

The Recovery Village Palmer Lake is located in a quiet Colorado community surrounded by mountain views. The campus includes semi-private rooms, gender-specific housing, meditation gardens, and outdoor recreation areas. Clients can spend time walking landscaped paths, using basketball or pickleball courts, or engaging in structured wellness activities, creating space for both reflection and healthy physical routines during recovery.

Full Spectrum of Care

Treatment spans medical detox, residential rehab, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, and outpatient programs. This range allows clients to begin at the appropriate level and step down gradually as their recovery stabilizes. 24/7 medical support and structured programming ensure a safe and reliable treatment experience across every stage of care.

Dual Diagnosis and Evidence-Based Therapies

Programs address substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders like anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and PTSD. Therapies include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR). Beyond traditional therapies, clients can participate in equine therapy, yoga, and art therapy. These activities promote self-expression, reduce stress, and encourage emotional regulation. By integrating addiction and mental health treatment, the facility helps clients develop coping skills that support long-term stability.

Family Involvement and Peer Support

Family participation is encouraged through private counseling, education, and group programming. These services help loved ones understand addiction and foster healthier communication. Peer connection is also built into the program with 12-Step groups, SMART Recovery, and community-focused sessions, creating accountability and a sense of shared progress.
