All of the treatment program components work as an integrative whole, helping our clients recover their physical health as well as providing them with the psychological and spiritual tools they need for a life free from drug addiction and alcoholism.

Education and counseling sessions are among the modalities utilized to specifically target treatment of the mind Education and living skills classes cover topics such as the disease concept of addiction, stress management, relapse prevention, nutrition, and codependency.
Group counseling provides a setting of support and caring where our counselors help clients realize the chronic nature of their disease while giving them the tools needed to cope with life minus the crutch of drugs or alcohol. Individual counseling provides a one-on-one, safe, and protective environment where our counselors strive to develop a healing relationship with clients based on trust and confidence while bringing them to terms with the underlying core issues which contribute to addiction. Family counseling provides a protected, caring place where our counselors help all parties to safely address issues in their relationship.
