Utah Addiction Centers

Trauma-Informed Treatment for Co-Occurring Needs

Utah Addiction Centers specializes in treating substance use disorders alongside co-occurring mental health conditions through a trauma-informed lens. The program is designed for adults who need space to address both addiction and underlying emotional or behavioral concerns at the same time. Treatment emphasizes practical skill-building, emotional regulation, and relapse prevention using evidence-based therapeutic approaches.

A Home-Style Residential Setting in Eagle Mountain

Residential care takes place in a quiet, non-institutional home setting in Eagle Mountain, surrounded by open land and mountain views. The small-scale environment includes private and semi-private bedrooms, shared living areas, and outdoor space that supports a calmer, more personal treatment experience. This setting is intended to reduce distractions and help clients focus on recovery in a grounded, day-to-day living environment.

Medication Support and MAT-Compatible Care

The program offers psychiatric and medication support for both substance use and mental health needs, including medications for addiction treatment (MAT) such as buprenorphine or naltrexone when clinically appropriate. Utah Addiction Centers can also support individuals who arrive already stabilized on MAT prescribed elsewhere. Clients who require medical detox typically complete withdrawal management at a separate licensed detox or hospital before entering residential care.

Experiential and Equine-Based Programming

In addition to traditional therapy, the facility incorporates experiential approaches that emphasize connection, routine, and accountability. Equine therapy and outdoor-based activities are used to support emotional awareness, stress management, and relationship skills, offering an alternative way to engage in treatment beyond talk therapy alone.

Step-Down Care and Continued Recovery Support

Utah Addiction Centers offers partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP), and outpatient programs, allowing clients to transition gradually as their needs change. Discharge planning and aftercare focus on maintaining continuity of care through outpatient services, recovery supports, and community-based resources that help clients build stability after leaving residential treatment.
