Residential treatment in a calming, tranquil setting

STOA Behavioral Healthcare offers a residential environment with calming spaces that support relaxation, mindfulness, and recovery. The welcoming atmosphere allows clients to focus on treatment, combining medical, psychological, and social support. Multiple levels of residential treatment are available: a medically monitored inpatient program, clinically managed high-intensity residential treatment, and a transitional residential program.

Therapy focused on understanding the thoughts, emotions, and behaviors connected to substance use

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a cornerstone of treatment and helps clients learn to recognize negative thinking patterns and develop coping strategies for everyday challenges. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is also used to support mindfulness and emotional regulation, which can be particularly helpful for clients experiencing self-destructive behaviors.

Mental health, trauma, and medication support alongside addiction treatment

Services are available for clients with co-occurring mental health conditions and substance use disorders, including trauma-related counseling, motivational interviewing, relapse prevention, and individual, group, and family counseling. Medications for addiction treatment (MAT) are available for opioid and alcohol use disorders, and clients can access mental health medications, nicotine replacement, and integrated primary care.

Practical assistance and continuing care

Transportation assistance can help clients overcome logistical barriers to attending treatment, and the facility continues to offer ongoing support when clients transition out of residential care. An intensive outpatient program (IOP) is available, and recovery coaching, mentoring, and peer support provide additional support. The goal is to build connections and maintain supportive relationships while transitioning back into everyday life.

How we research treatment facilities

Across the site, our team has conducted over 1,000 pre-admissions calls to better understand the patient experience, interviewed facility clinical leaders, performed facility background checks, and compared our information against trusted public data sources.

Our research process begins with data from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), accrediting bodies including The Joint Commission and CARF, government licensing agencies, and other trusted sources. From there, our team conducts significant original research, including:

- Pre-admissions calls: We speak with admissions staff to get a candid picture of patient experience.

- Background checks: We review complaints from past clients, media reports, actions taken by accrediting bodies, and positive recognition from notable organizations.

- Clinical interviews: We have in-depth conversations with clinical leadership, often lasting up to one hour, that give us a better understanding of clinical care.

- Data partnerships: We ingest and analyze exclusive data that provides information about in-network insurance status, cost, and more.

Research varies by facility. Each facility profile shows which research steps we completed and when each step was last performed. Learn more about our research process and background checks.

How we evaluate treatment facilities

These data help us develop a Trust Score for each facility—a simple letter grade that helps you assess how much confidence to place in a facility based on the information available to us. Trust Score considers accreditation, operating history, notable recognition, and concerns identified during our background check. Our Trust Score is an objective rating that is never influenced by advertiser payment. Learn more about our Trust Score methodology.

Important disclaimer

We cannot guarantee the quality of treatment at any facility. We cannot independently confirm the accuracy of every data point, and some information may become outdated or change over time. A Trust Score is a starting point, not a guarantee of treatment quality or outcomes. Please contact us if you would like to update or correct facility information.
