outpatient counseling to residential rehabilitation and supported housing.

Care integrates proven therapies that address both mental health and addiction. Individuals benefit from eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), neurofeedback, and biofeedback alongside
medication-assisted treatment. Counseling takes many forms, including individual, family, and
group therapy, while motivational interviewing and positive psychotherapy encourage progress. Psychiatric evaluations, case management, and education about physical health provide a complete picture of support, ensuring people build skills and resilience that strengthen recovery and foster long-term wellness.
Programs extend beyond traditional treatment by meeting daily needs and encouraging personal growth. Seniors receive specialized rehabilitation services that promote healthy aging, while young adults build life skills to support community integration. A Food is Medicine program teaches cooking and nutrition using fresh, whole foods to improve both physical and mental health. Day programs, housing support, and vocational services ensure recovery translates into greater independence and lasting change.
