Providing each client with top quality treatment and renewing lives is our top priority. And while doing just that, we help involve the family within each client’s treatment plan and heal as a whole. For the loved ones of those inflicted with the disease of addiction, we want to offer as much care and support as we can. Please see below for links and references to literature, media, documentaries, support lines, etc.
Often times insurance can cover up to 100% of the cost of treatment. We accept most commercial health insurance, as well as affordable self pay options.

What is the difference between PHP, IOP, and OP?
PHP, IOP, and OP differ primarily in the level of intensity and the time commitment involved. PHP is the most intensive, with daily treatment sessions, typically lasting 5-7 hours per day. IOP provides less intensive care, usually 3-5 days a week with 3-4 hours per day. OP is the least intensive, typically offering treatment 1-2 days a week for 1-2 hours per session.
Will my family be involved in the treatment process?
Yes, we believe that family involvement is crucial to the recovery process. We offer family therapy sessions, support groups, and educational resources to help family members understand addiction and mental health issues and learn how to support their loved ones in recovery.
What happens during a typical day in the IOP or PHP?
A typical day in IOP or PHP includes group therapy, individual therapy, and other therapeutic activities like mindfulness, coping skills training, or family therapy. In PHP, sessions are usually more intensive, running for several hours, while IOP offers a less intense schedule with fewer hours of therapy each week.
Is the treatment program covered by insurance?
We accept most major insurance plans, and our team can help verify your coverage. Many plans cover both substance abuse and mental health treatment. If you’re unsure about your coverage, we can help navigate the insurance process and discuss payment options.
