Tailored Support for Veterans and Professionals

Separate tracks are available for veterans and professionals to directly address the challenges they endure, with therapy that acknowledges trauma, high-stakes careers, and the need for discretion. Veterans have access to trauma-informed care and peer support rooted in military experience. Professionals benefit from group therapy with others in similar roles, career-sensitive treatment plans, and help navigating licensure requirements if needed. When treatment aligns with someone’s identity and real-world concerns, they’re more likely to open up.

Monthly Family Involvement

The center invites loved ones to take part in monthly Family Days, where they can learn about addiction, join group sessions, and start their own healing. Counseling helps families confront resentment, set boundaries, and improve communication. The program also explores how addiction rewires family dynamics, and offers tools to break that cycle. This kind of support strengthens relationships, which are often a make-or-break factor in someone’s long-term recovery.

A Recovery Philosophy Grounded in Continuity and Community

This care model supports people across every stage of treatment, whether for detox, long-term structure, or outpatient flexibility. Residential programs offer a break from daily stressors, allowing clients to focus fully on healing in a safe, supportive environment. Outpatient and intensive outpatient programs (IOP) let clients maintain work or family responsibilities while continuing therapeutic progress. This layered approach meets people where they are, and that flexibility increases the chances they’ll stay engaged in treatment over time.

Continuing Care that Sustains Recovery

Aftercare is designed to help people stay connected and accountable once primary treatment ends. Weekly groups, check-ins, and ongoing access to clinical support keep clients grounded during what can be a vulnerable transition. The focus is on real-life tools to stay sober through stress, rebuild routines, and stay in touch with a recovery community. For many, aftercare is what bridges the gap between early sobriety and lasting change. That kind of support helps recovery hold up not just in theory, but in the ups and downs of everyday life.

What Patients Say

Reviews consistently highlight the dedication of Woodlake's staff, especially the counselors. Clients credit the honesty, structure, and therapeutic education at Woodlake with helping them achieve long-term recovery, often maintaining sobriety for years post-treatment. Some mention minor issues with food quality, but these are far outweighed by the praise for the treatment itself.
