A structured recovery path

A step-down recovery path goes beyond detox and residential treatment. Typically, clients transition to a six-week residential program after withdrawal management. They can elect to continue in another six weeks of extended care if they feel they need more support. During extended care, individuals have the opportunity to take part in weekly psychodrama, equine therapy, therapeutic leave, and a scheduled re-engagement visit. After formal treatment, clients have access to 30-day virtual check-ins, alumni programs, and return recovery retreats at the facility.

Nature integrated into daily treatment

The 100-acre campus features walking trails, waterfalls, gardens, and outdoor gathering spaces. Clients have the opportunity to take part in outdoor activities such as hiking and adventure outings in addition to having spaces for meditation and reflection, including a Serenity Room and a labyrinth. The environment is intended to feel retreat-like and offers amenities such as chef-prepared meals, massage, fitness programs, and access to nature.

Whole-person care

Clients can expect a whole person treatment model that includes clinical therapies such as Internal Family Systems, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), motivational interviewing, and relapse prevention in addition to experiential therapies. A spiritual director is available to help clients explore meaning through reflection and nature. Overall, the facility intends to support mind, body, and spirit.

Family support

Loved ones will find support through family therapy and education to help them understand addiction, improve communication, and establish healthy boundaries. The program focuses on recovery as an opportunity to repair family relationships and build trust.
