Treatments
1-on-1 Counseling
One-on-one counseling gives clients private time with a counselor or therapist to discuss substance use, mental health symptoms, goals, triggers, and recovery planning. It is commonly used throughout treatment to create a more personalized care plan.
Art Therapy
Art therapy uses creative activities to help clients express emotions, process experiences, and explore thoughts that may be difficult to discuss directly. It is often used as a supportive approach in mental health, trauma, and substance use treatment settings.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
CBT helps people identify thought and behavior patterns that may contribute to substance use, anxiety, depression, or relapse risk. Programs may use it to build coping skills and practical recovery strategies.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy
DBT teaches skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and communication. It may support people with intense emotions, trauma symptoms, self-destructive patterns, or co-occurring mental health concerns.
Family Therapy
Family therapy helps clients and loved ones address communication, boundaries, conflict, support systems, and the impact of substance use or mental health concerns on the household. It is an important treatment option when recovery involves family relationships.
Group Therapy
Group therapy brings clients together in a structured setting to discuss recovery, coping skills, accountability, relationships, and shared challenges. It is commonly used in addiction and mental health treatment at many levels of care.
Life Skills
Life skills programming helps clients build practical routines for daily stability, communication, employment readiness, budgeting, time management, and recovery planning. It is often used in residential, PHP, IOP, sober living, and transitional care.
Recreation Therapy
Recreation therapy uses structured recreational activities to support social connection, stress reduction, confidence, and healthy routines. It is often used as a supportive service in residential or extended-care programs.
Yoga
Yoga combines movement, breathing, and mindfulness practices that may support stress reduction, emotional regulation, sleep, and general wellness. It is best presented as a complementary recovery support rather than a standalone treatment.
Psychoeducation
Psychoeducation helps clients understand addiction, mental health symptoms, medications, coping skills, relapse warning signs, and treatment expectations. It is commonly used across many levels of care to support informed participation in treatment.
Dance Therapy
Dance or movement therapy uses body movement to support emotional expression, body awareness, and stress reduction. It may be helpful as a supportive approach for clients processing trauma, mood symptoms, or difficulty expressing emotions verbally.

Substances We Treat

Co-Occurring Disorders
Co-occurring disorders involve both a substance use disorder and a mental health disorder. Treatment may coordinate addiction care, mental health therapy, medication management, and recovery support so both concerns are addressed together.

Drug Addiction / Substance Use Disorder
Drug addiction, or substance use disorder, involves continued substance use despite harmful consequences. Treatment may include assessment, counseling, behavioral therapies, medications for some substance use disorders, relapse prevention, and recovery support.
