Skywood Recovery

Skywood Recovery is located on 300 acres of woodland, fields, and ponds in beautiful Augusta, Michigan. Skywood Recovery believes that clients are not their diagnosis, and they should not be treated like a condition. Using an integrated, whole-person approach, Skywood Recovery treats addiction and co-occurring disorders with compassion and respect. Their levels of care include residential care with detox, day treatment, an intensive outpatient program (IOP), and general outpatient.
A talented and qualified team of clinical and psychological staff helps make treatment both tailored and safe. Each client at Skywood Recovery receives a thorough treatment assessment, which uses a bio-psycho-social model to understand clients’ past, present, and what they want for the future. Using this, Skywood’s professionals craft unique and fully personalized treatment plans that include a blend of evidence-based, holistic, and spiritual therapies to treat the whole person.
Skywood Recovery notably doesn’t make claims or promises regarding recovery. They see addiction as a disease that can be effectively treated, but not cured. Skywood offers encouragement and hope through reality–addiction can be treated. They offer psychoeducation to educate clients and their loved ones on the nature of addiction, medications, and co-occurring conditions. Their therapies include:
•Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)
•Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
•Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT)
•Adventure therapy
•Art therapy
•Equine therapy
•Nutrition and wellness
•Family therapy
•Anger management, 12-Step and peer support meetings.
Once a 300-acre golf resort, Skywood Recovery has over 5 miles of paths through their beautiful woodland acreage. Every acre flourishes with wildlife and tranquil greenery. Clients can enjoy daily hikes through the woods and take in the peace and privacy of Skywood’s grounds day or night. Inside, clients will enjoy shared living quarters in cottage-like accommodations. On-site chefs prepare healthy and nutritious meals every day of the week. From Skywood’s clinical staff to their housekeeping crew, each member is fully dedicated to the needs and success of each client.

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.

Skywood 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 9 evidence-based therapeutic modalities. According to NIDA research, combination therapy approaches that integrate behavioral interventions (such as 1-on-1 Counseling and Cognitive Behavioral 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. Skywood Recovery works with 24 insurance providers. Call (833) 567-5838 to verify your specific coverage and learn about out-of-pocket costs before admission.
