Recovery Works offers medical detox and residential care. Clients receive an initial clinical evaluation and continuous treatment adjustments as needed to tailor treatment to their recovery needs.
Recovery Works Cambridge offers detox as the first step to recovery. Board-certified physicians, nurses, and clinicians monitor detox 24/7. Other treatment staff includes counselors, residential aides, and a consulting psychiatrist.

Their evidence-based therapies include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing (MI), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). Clients attend therapy in group, 1:1, and family settings. Recovery Works provides relapse prevention planning to build coping strategies. They offer psychoeducation, life skills training, process groups, gender-specific groups, and grief and loss therapy.
