The Joint Commission SAMHSA-certified Opioid Treatment Program

Specialized Programs for Trauma and Chronic Pain

The center offers focused programs for individuals with complex recovery needs, including survivors of sexual assault and domestic violence. Dedicated therapy groups provide a safe, supportive space to address trauma while building coping skills through evidence-based care. Foundations Training, a specialized track for individuals living with chronic pain, combines education about pain management with substance use treatment, helping clients learn non-opioid strategies to manage pain and improve function. Participants engage in therapies such as yoga, acupuncture, and reiki to support nervous system regulation.

Operation Recovery for Veterans, Military, and First Responders

The Operation Recovery program is designed for veterans, active-duty military members, and first responders. Participants engage in trauma-focused care with others who have similar lived experiences, supported by medical staff familiar with service-related post-traumatic stress. The program integrates therapies like eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) and cognitive processing therapy in a setting that prioritizes cultural understanding and peer connection.

Resources for Families and Loved Ones

Recovery doesn’t happen in isolation—it affects and is affected by the client’s family. The center offers a structured Family Program that helps loved ones better understand substance use, rebuild trust, and learn how to support recovery without enabling harmful behaviors. Families are invited to participate in educational sessions that cover communication skills, healthy boundaries, and relapse warning signs. Loved ones gain practical tools for navigating post-treatment transitions and are encouraged to begin their own healing process, whether through support groups or counseling. When appropriate, the program also includes therapist-led family therapy sessions—either in person or via phone or video.

Engaging Therapeutic Activities and Recreation

A wide range of structured recreational and expressive activities are integrated into the daily treatment schedule. Clients have access to a full fitness center, a volleyball pit, and a basketball court. Group activities like yoga, canoeing, and drum circles are offered regularly to promote mindfulness, self-regulation, and healthy stress relief. For those interested in creative outlets, the facility includes a music recording studio and art therapy sessions, allowing participants to process emotions in nonverbal ways. The center also hosts peer-led and volunteer-facilitated events, such as games, pickleball, and seasonal celebrations including a Halloween fair with games and activities.

Onsite Patient Advocates for Day-to-Day Guidance

Each client is assigned a dedicated patient advocate to provide personal support, answer questions, and help resolve everyday concerns. Advocates are non-clinical staff members whose role includes explaining schedules and treatment processes, assisting with communication between residents and counselors, and helping clients access resources such as peer support groups and recreational activities. They also intervene early when someone is struggling—whether with homesickness, emotional distress, or questions about next steps. For people who are new to treatment or hesitant to speak up, advocates provide reassurance and help build confidence.

What Patients Say

Patient feedback highlights the commitment of the staff, the value of peer accountability, and the impact of structured routines. Many describe arriving in crisis and finding not just care, but renewed purpose. While some mention areas for improvement—like facility upkeep or rigid policies—the overwhelming tone is one of gratitude. For those looking for both compassionate support and a rigorous, real-world approach to recovery, Wilmington Treatment Center stands out.
