About The Recovery Team
Where Hope Meets Healing
We Do Things Different Here — And It Matters
We obsess over what works.
We refuse to rely on outdated methods just because they’re standard practice. We constantly evaluate and refine our approach, integrating proven medical treatments, cutting-edge therapies, and real-world recovery tools that are much more likely to keep our patients well than the status quo.
We know you are more than your struggles.
Who you are is not defined by what you’ve been through. You deserve more than just a quick fix—you deserve lasting peace, hope and sobriety.
We focus on more than just treatment—it’s a deeply supportive, uplifting experience where you can heal, rebuild, and rediscover the strength that’s already within you.
Decades of Mindful Growth
What started in 1995 as a single clinic has grown into a trusted care model with four locations nationwide. Rooted in evidence-based practices and a commitment to individualized treatment, we stay true to our values making sure every patient is seen, heard, and treated like a person, not a number.
Recovery Is Personal to Us
