The Valley

Rural, Luxury Campus Built for Focus and Privacy

The Valley’s setting features a residential campus in Derwood, with a pastoral, home-like feel rather than a hospital environment. Outdoor space is used for both downtime and group activities, and amenities like gardens and a pool support rest and routine between sessions. Housing is separated by gender, which can help some people feel more comfortable and focused during early recovery.

Small-Scale Residential Care With a Multidisciplinary Team

The program emphasizes individualized attention through low staff-to-client ratios and a team that includes medical and clinical professionals. Clients can expect structured days supported by counselors, therapists, nursing staff, and medical oversight, alongside peer connection in a residential community. This small-scale approach may be a fit for people who want more direct access to staff and a calmer, less crowded environment.

Integrated Therapy and Medications for Addiction Treatment

The Valley combines substance use treatment with support for co-occurring mental health needs. Treatment approaches listed include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, relapse prevention, trauma-related counseling, anger management, and 12-step facilitation. The facility also offers medications for addiction treatment (MAT) when appropriate, including buprenorphine and naltrexone, and may accept clients who arrive with these medications prescribed elsewhere. Assessments, screenings, and other clinical services help guide care throughout a stay.

Executive-Friendly Options and Continued Support After Discharge

For working professionals who need added discretion, The Valley offers a specialized professional program that supports privacy and the ability to stay connected to work responsibilities. After treatment, the facility lists transitional planning and continuing care supports, which may include follow-up options, peer support, recovery coaching, and help connecting to community resources to support the shift back into daily life.
