About Walker Center – Gooding
Walker Center is a comprehensive treatment facility for adults with substance use disorders. You’ll find ‘em surrounded by breathtaking landscapes in Gooding, Idaho. Since 1976, they’ve helped clients achieve recovery through their inpatient and outpatient programs.
They accept multiple private insurers like Magellan, Beacon, and Select Health. Even if you don’t have insurance, you can still get the help you need. You can access flexible payment plans and state funding. Additionally, you may be eligible for free treatment through their HOPE Scholarship.
Something neat about this facility is that they offer separate inpatient programs for drug and alcohol addiction. They recognize that these diseases are different and there isn’t a one size fits all approach to treatment. Both programs last eight weeks and include family counseling, detoxification services, and therapeutic outings in nature. Some of the topics discussed during family sessions include how to cope with your emotions, how to prevent relapse, and how to create lasting change through recovery.
For me, their holistic features caught my eye the most. You’ll benefit from restoration through team-building activities, ROPES courses, meditation, therapeutic outings, fitness, and more. You can even access an onsite health educator to create a curated wellness and nutritional plan. They provide a supportive environment to enhance every part of your well-being.
I also love that they offer continuous support before, during, and after treatment. You can access an alumni group to stay focused on sustaining recovery. They can also connect you to their sober house for continuing care.
