National Recovery Month was founded 30 years ago in 1989. It’s a time for those addicted by substance use, medical professionals, first responders, and personal support networks to join forces in reflection and encouragement to stay the course for recovering efforts, as well as develop new ideas for treatment.
Similar to those that have survived cancer or other medical conditions, during National Recovery Month, we celebrate those who have found freedom from addiction, as well as those who are going through the process. The professionals at Riverside Recovery understand the trials of recovery, as many of them have firsthand experience with addiction. Seventy-five percent of their staff has gone through the recovery process and experienced what it feels like to have addiction define them.
You’re not Alone
With addiction to alcohol or drugs, many individuals attempt to hide their condition from others, but seeking help is the first step to effective recovery. Even if a person has tried to break their cycle of addiction without success, it’s never too late. In some cases, it can take multiple attempts to stop the pattern and become sober.
An Integrative Approach
Opening up about your struggles and talking to someone is essential for healing. Along with addiction, mental struggles often coincide, such as depression, anxiety, eating disorders, bipolar, PTSD, OCD, and others. At Riverside Recovery, they treat the whole person, and their programs are modern and integrative approaches coupled with traditional treatment and counseling.
The idea of Riverside Recovery started in 2015 by the two founders talking about what a perfect treatment center would entail. After learning about the voids in the industry, they put their plan into action to create a diverse rehab facility that treated their patients with compassion and empathy. Every aspect of the building, from its views of the river to the artwork on the wall and aromatherapy, was made to encourage recovery and create the best possible environment for clients.
Riverside Recovery Programs
Set in a luxury resort-like atmosphere, Riverside Recovery is an addiction treatment center for men and women offering a full continuum of care for people suffering from addiction and co-occurring mental health disorders. Riverside Recovery focuses on the long run, not just one stage of your recovery. They provide multiple levels of care to help you move through treatment and prepare for independent life.
Riverside Recovery programs include detox, residential, day/night and outpatient options, and they ensure that you enter and leave treatment at the levels of care that make sense for you. Their continuum of care is designed to provide everything you need to rebuild your health, restore your confidence, and create a foundation for lasting recovery.
Personalized Treatment
Riverside Recovery programs are individualized and customized for every client. They know that your experience with addiction is informed by your background, your lifestyle, and more. Every client they treat is unlike anyone else they have treated before. They work closely with you to identify what you need, and they make sure to provide it at the highest standard of care. With this approach, addiction treatment at Riverside Recovery can be the right fit for a wide variety of clients. Whether you have been to rehab or this is your first time; whether you are struggling with addiction to alcohol, drugs, or both; or whether you need treatment for trauma or a co-occurring disorder, their admissions team is available to provide more information and to help you find out if Riverside Recovery is right for you.
Riverside Recovery utilizes the most effective, evidence-based modalities combined with experiential therapies to create a vibrant and well-rounded program. Their diverse offerings are designed to help each client gain insight into their addiction and begin learning the skills and tools needed to create real change in their lives.
