About The Foundry Treatment Center – Alpine Plaza – Steamboat Springs
The Foundry Treatment Center – Alpine Plaza in Steamboat Springs, Colorado, is a substance use and co-occurring mental health disorder facility. The staff members focus on healing your trauma, helping you develop recovery oriented lifestyles and teaching you self regulation skills. Some of their featured programs include detox, residential treatment, an intensive outpatient program (IOP) and the Michael Barnes Family Institute. The facility accepts most major insurance plans and Medicaid.
All clients will start off with a full medical evaluation. You’ll undergo blood work, an in depth assessment and a physical to gauge your current withdrawal symptoms. If you need to engage in detox, an individualized care plan will be created for you to manage discomfort and anxiety.
One thing that stands out to me is that they offer a variety of medical assessments to rule out medical issues that could complicate your recovery. These assessments include testing for sexually transmitted diseases, screening for diabetes and analyzing your kidney function. After you’ve completed detox you’ll be able to participate in other levels of care.
The facility believes in taking a holistic approach to recovery through healing you mentally, physically and spiritually. Their adherence to this philosophy includes a diverse set of treatment approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, outdoor experiential therapy and meditation. Located on Alpine Plaza, they offer the benefit of nearby nature areas such as Quarry Mountain and Fish Creek Falls, where you can relax and enjoy walking in nature as an alternative to using substances.
One other standout program worth mentioning is the Michael Barnes Family Institute. It’s a program that features two levels of programming. One is a five week virtual group session to educate families on substance use. After completion of that level of programming, families can move on to weekly coaching for deeper conversations about how substance use has negatively affected them.
