Release Recovery’s treatment philosophy is based in a comprehensive, interdisciplinary team methodology and client centered approach. We strive to provide effective, evidence-based treatment to all our clients by applying Trauma Informed standards of care throughout all our services.

Many individuals who struggle with Substance Use Disorder also have mental health diagnoses, which is what we refer to as co-occurring disorders. Although we are substance abuse primary, we are able to offer support for both substance abuse & mental health diagnoses concurrently.

We believe that no substance use or mental health disorder is routine and recognize the pain, loss and shame associated with addiction. We incorporate multiple holistic practices to emphasize the healing of the whole person in mind, body, and spirit.  By creating a trusting environment grounded in safety we cultivate the necessary space for intrinsic emotional and behavioral transformation to thrive. Our trauma informed approach empowers our clients with agency and fosters deep connections with themselves and others to establish a new attitude and outlook towards life. 

At Release Recovery, we strive to understand our clients and families as having complex interpersonal relationships with diverse life experiences. We believe it is essential that the treatment process for the family is viewed as being parallel to the treatment process for our clients. Our family component enables the family to understand that recovery is not solely about their loved ones’ healing, it’s about helping the family achieve a new equilibrium and heal together as a unit. Our relational context encourages clients and families to work through previous experiential avoidance rooted in the physiological, cognitive, emotional, social, and spiritual implications of addiction and mental health and create a new attitude towards life.

Release Recovery offers comprehensive family programming including weekly support groups, education workshops, and family wellness weekends.

Best outcomes occur when all members of the family are involved. Your clinical team will tailor the family's treatment plan to each client’s specific needs.

Release Recovery will assist Clients in setting up a comprehensive aftercare plan to ensure the Client and their family is set up for continued success.
