They offer medically supervised detox and inpatient, outpatient, and aftercare programming. They are accredited by The Joint Commission and CARF.

Treatment begins with a comprehensive medical and mental health assessment, drug and alcohol screening, and a personalized care plan tailored to clients’ unique recovery needs and goals. Crisis intervention, patient stabilization, and complete case management are included.

Their inpatient programs allow clients to focus on their recovery in a highly structured and supportive environment with round-the-clock clinical supervision.

Clients also engage in intensive individual, group, and family counseling drawing on proven modalities, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and motivational interviewing. The program promotes clients’ sustained sobriety through robust, recovery-focused life skills training addressing topics such as coping, self-care, and relapse prevention. An array of evidence-based complementary therapies is available, including meditation and mindfulness, acupuncture, and experiential therapy.

Their outpatient programs encompass multiple levels of care to align with clients’ evolving needs. Aftercare support may include 12 step program facilitation, step-down assistance, and referrals for additional medical, mental health, and social service programs.
