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.
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.
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.
Medication-Assisted Treatment
MAT uses approved medications with counseling or recovery support when clinically appropriate. It is especially important for opioid use disorder and may also be used for alcohol use disorder.
Relapse Prevention Counseling
Relapse prevention counseling helps clients identify triggers, warning signs, high-risk situations, and coping strategies. It is commonly used to support ongoing recovery after detox, residential treatment, PHP, IOP, or outpatient care.
Trauma-Specific Therapy
Trauma-specific therapy focuses directly on the effects of trauma, including triggers, avoidance, emotional distress, and safety. It may be important when trauma history is connected to substance use, anxiety, depression, or other mental health concerns.
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.
Solution-Focused, Goal-Oriented Therapy
Solution-focused therapy helps clients identify strengths, set practical goals, and build on what is already working. It may be useful for clients who need short-term, structured support around recovery, relationships, or life stability.
Stress Management
Stress management teaches clients practical tools to reduce emotional and physical stress, including breathing, planning, coping skills, sleep routines, and boundary-setting. It is often used to support relapse prevention and mental health stability.

Substances We Treat
Alcohol
Alcohol use disorder can affect health, relationships, work, safety, and mental health. Treatment may include counseling, behavioral therapies, recovery support, and FDA-approved medications when clinically appropriate.
Benzodiazepines
Benzodiazepines are prescription sedatives sometimes used for anxiety, sleep, or seizure-related conditions. Treatment may involve careful assessment, medical supervision, and support for dependence or withdrawal risk, especially when other substances are involved.

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.
Heroin
Heroin is an opioid with a high risk of dependence, withdrawal, and overdose. Treatment often includes medications for opioid use disorder, counseling, harm-reduction education, relapse prevention, and ongoing recovery support.
Opioids
Opioids include heroin, fentanyl, and prescription pain medications such as oxycodone or hydrocodone. Treatment for opioid use disorder may include FDA-approved medications such as buprenorphine, methadone, or naltrexone, along with counseling and recovery support.
Prescription Drugs
Prescription drug misuse may involve opioids, benzodiazepines, stimulants, or other medications used differently than prescribed. Treatment may include medical assessment, withdrawal support when needed, counseling, medication management, and relapse prevention planning.
Synthetic Drugs / New Psychoactive Substances
Synthetic drugs can include lab-made cannabinoids, stimulants, opioids, or hallucinogens with unpredictable strength and effects. Treatment may focus on medical stabilization, substance use counseling, relapse prevention, and mental health support when symptoms are severe or persistent.
Chronic Relapse
Chronic relapse refers to repeated returns to substance use after periods of recovery or treatment. Programs may focus on relapse prevention, triggers, co-occurring mental health needs, medication support, recovery planning, and long-term accountability.

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.
