About Gentle Path at The Meadows
Gentle Path at The Meadows is located in the Sonoran Desert about an hour away from Phoenix in Wickenburg, Arizona. The organization is LegitScript certified and is accredited by The Joint Commission. They are also members of the National Association of Addiction Treatment Providers.
Men 18 years of age and older are able to receive treatment for sexual addiction and address any underlying co occurring substance abuse and emotional trauma. Insurance such as TriCare is accepted. If needed, their staff will be able to help you with financing options.
If you’re in need, they are able to provide you with inpatient psychiatric care and detox. These services are provided in their acute care section of the unit. Registered nurses and nursing staff will provide you with round the clock monitoring. The nurses and nursing staff are experienced in psychiatric and detox issues.
Their campus sits on 35 acres in the countryside. You will have a roommate as rooms are shared. They have limited private rooms available. An array of amenities are available and that really stood out to me. They have an outdoor basketball court, sand volleyball, equine therapy, a pool, ping pong, a labyrinth, a serenity orchard, a putting green and an expressive arts room.
I like that their art room is stocked with supplies. They have paint, clay, drawing materials, colored pencils and other supplies. You’ll attend regularly with directed projects. These projects will circle back to the topics that were discussed during group therapy sessions.
With their equine therapy program, you will participate weekly in this form of therapeutic interaction with the horses. You will not be riding the horses. If your family also participates in your treatment journey, they will have the opportunity to participate in equine therapy during family work time.
