Outpatient Services at the Eastern Foot of the Rocky Mountains
This facility offers a welcoming, non-institutional environment designed to put you at ease. Comfortable and discreet, it’s a holistic wellness hub for outpatient counseling and drug rehab services.
While you won’t have access to detox services here, the team can support by referring you to suitable local providers as needed. However, they strongly advise against attempting the process alone for safety reasons.
Besides referral support, the program here offers group and individual counseling sessions, using motivational interviewing (MI), alongside other therapeutic methods. Other services include anger management and relapse prevention sessions that include oral swab testing and faith-based counseling.
Treatment is planned based on clients’ unique needs and situations and is designed for flexibility to adapt to varying schedules. Weekend and evening options are available. Care is available in Spanish if need be.
DUI Support Services
Specialized DUI education and classes are also provided to support individuals who have gotten into legal trouble as a result of their substance misuse. These are also open to court-ordered individuals seeking therapy, who may have court-mandated requirements to fulfill.
The emphasis of these services is in helping clients develop practical coping skills, helping them feel empowered to achieve a long-term sustainable recovery.
