About Council on Recovery

This non-profit organization has relentlessly provided addiction and co-occurring disorder awareness and effective treatment through their community programs, intensive outpatient programs (IOP) and therapeutic counseling sessions. They reach the youngest members of the community by offering in-school prevention workshops for children as young as 7 and adolescents throughout high school. Their community-wide services also include recovery coaching for clients who have finished treatment, court-mandated therapy sessions, recovery services for older adults, multi-disciplinary training for graduate student interns, and state-funded assessments.
The Council on Recovery is committed to working with families to heal the disease of addiction, so when a client comes for treatment, the sessions will often involve family. In a program called Healing Choices, the client participates in 8 weeks of treatment which involves individual, group and family therapy, 12-Step support, relapse prevention counseling, and psychoeducation. Each client may choose to engage in holistic therapies like yoga, meditation, or mind-body skills groups to support recovery. This program includes a specialized, private track for professionals. They also offer a similar 6 week program called Discovery Choices for clients who do not have the financial resources to afford treatment. This program includes programs for pregnant mothers, parenting women, and clients with co-occurring disorders. The clinical staff at the organization also offer therapeutic counseling for people of all ages, regardless of whether addiction is present or not.

Evidence-Based Context: According to SAMHSA's National Survey on Drug Use and Health (2023), approximately 48.7 million Americans aged 12 or older had a substance use disorder in the past year. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) emphasizes that treatment programs combining behavioral therapy with medication-assisted approaches show the highest rates of sustained recovery. Facilities like Council on Recovery provide structured pathways to evidence-based care. Sources: SAMHSA NSDUH 2023, NIDA Principles of Drug Addiction Treatment (4th Ed.)

Understanding Your Treatment Options

Choosing the right treatment facility is one of the most important decisions in the recovery journey. Research published by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) shows that treatment duration, therapeutic approach, and aftercare planning are the three strongest predictors of long-term sobriety.

Council on Recovery offers 2 distinct levels of care, allowing patients to step through treatment intensities as they progress. This continuum-of-care model — moving from higher to lower intensity — is recommended by SAMHSA as the gold standard for addiction treatment.

The facility utilizes 7 evidence-based therapeutic modalities. According to NIDA research, combination therapy approaches that integrate behavioral interventions (such as 1-on-1 Counseling and Family Therapy) with holistic support show significantly improved outcomes compared to single-modality programs.

Under the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act, most commercial insurance plans are required to cover substance abuse treatment. Council on Recovery works with 24 insurance providers.
