About Cottonwood Tucson
Recognized as one of Newsweek’s America’s Best Addiction Treatment Centers 2023, Cottonwood Tucson treats primary mental health, substance use, process addictions, and co-occurring disorders. They offer medically supervised detox, residential care, day treatment (partial hospitalization), and intensive outpatient. Their medically-managed detox provides a consultation with a medical provider, close nursing supervision, vital sign monitoring, and supervised medication use. After residential care, clients can participate in outpatient programming to continue building life skills and preventing relapse. Cottonwood Tucson treats only 9 clients at a time.
On staff, Cottonwood Tucson has psychiatrists, psychologists, nurses, nutritionists, and substance use counselors catering treatment to clients’ recovery.

Their program can help those with process addictions such as gambling, video games, shopping, and sex addiction.
