Comprehensive Treatment Programs Designed For You
We take a comprehensive approach to healing by treating mental health, addiction, and dual diagnosis together. Our programs are designed to address the full picture of a personâs well-being, whether that means managing conditions like anxiety or PTSD, breaking free from substance use, or navigating both at the same time. Learn more about our treatment options below.
Mental Health Treatment
At Recovery Ways, we understand the weight that comes with serving your country or community. Military members, firefighters and protective service workers often face intense stress, trauma, and responsibility that can leave lasting emotional and psychological effects. Our mental health treatment is designed to address conditions like PTSD, depression, anxiety, and sleep disorders with care that respects your unique experiences. Using evidence-based therapies and trauma-informed approaches, we help you process what youâve been through, build coping skills, and regain balance in your life. Most importantly, we provide a confidential and supportive environment where you donât have to carry the burden alone.
Addiction Treatment
Addiction can be especially challenging for those in service roles, where the pressure to stay strong and âhold it togetherâ often keeps people from seeking help. At Recovery Ways, our addiction treatment programs are built with military members, veterans, and first responders in mind, addressing not only substance use, but also the underlying stressors and traumas that fuel it. With medical detox, evidence-based therapies, and dual diagnosis care, we treat the whole person, not just the addiction. Our team provides the tools and support needed to achieve lasting recovery, rebuild relationships, and restore a sense of purpose. We help you reclaim control of your life so you can continue serving yourself, your loved ones, and your community with strength.
Trauma-Informed Care & Community Support for Long-Term Healing
We recognize the profound impact service-related trauma can have on mental health and addiction, and we prioritize evidence-based modalities that facilitate healing. Alongside this approach, we emphasize the power of community support, fostering connection through group therapy, interactions with peers who have been through similar experiences, and alumni networks. This blend of personalized care and communal strength empowers individuals to heal, grow, and find lasting recovery. Some of the evidence-based methods we specialize in include:
- Valor Process Group
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
- Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)
- Family Therapy
- Occupational Therapy
- Nature & Recreation Therapy
- Internal Family Systems (IFS)
