Highly Effective and Individualized Treatment Plans
Addiction Recovery That Works
Addiction is complex. Whether you struggle with a behavioral addiction or a substance addiction, there are no quick fixes or one-size-fits-all treatment plans. That’s why we practice a multi-disciplinary, integrative, and personalized approach to treatment. Each of our services is carefully cultivated to help heal your body, soul, and mind for complete and lasting victory from addiction.
Starting with Detox
For many people, the first step in breaking free is physically detoxing from an addictive substance. Trying to detox alone can be painful, scary, and even dangerous; detox doesn’t have to be that way. We offer the support you need to detox as safely and comfortably as possible.
✔ A Board-certified Addictionologist
✔ A medically-supervised detox
✔ Suboxone and other medications when appropriate
Psychological Services
We create an individualized care plan for you that includes individual and group therapy sessions using proven and highly effective clinical therapies such as
✔ Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR),
Medical Services
Within 24 hours of arrival, you’ll be fully evaluated by a physician addictionologist or licensed physician’s assistant. Addictionologist Dr. Stephen Denzer will supervise your detox to address any chronic pain issues or withdrawal-related medical needs you may have. If you have a pre-existing condition or non-detox related need, we’ll help you find a local full-service health care provider or dentist for the care you need.
Psycho-educational Services
Through individual and group counseling, we help you improve social and life skills, practice self-care, and cultivate independent living skills. In a nurturing environment and with an emphasis on building good communication skills, we support your vocational and occupational stability and growth. All psycho-educational services are provided by Masters-level clinical social workers and certified substance abuse counselors under the supervision of a licensed clinical psychologist.
