Asheville Recovery Center guides clients through alcohol, drug, and dual diagnosis treatment with accountability, love, and community for lasting, real-life recovery. Their partial hospitalization program (PHP), intensive outpatient program (IOP), and virtual IOP levels of care pair with optional on-site housing and a 90-day extended care path. Set in the Blue Ridge Mountains, the team draws on members' own recovery experience to guide treatment.

Heal with Adaptive Care

The ARC Approach, Asheville Recovery Center's adaptive recovery continuum, adjusts each client's length of stay and programming to real clinical progress rather than a fixed calendar. Evidence-based therapies such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) pair with whole-person options like yoga, art therapy, and equine-assisted work. Weekly ARC checkpoint reviews track progress and guide each step forward.

Settle into Comfortable Surroundings

During partial hospitalization, clients choose where to stay: at home, in a local sober living facility, or in the center's own transitional housing on campus. The property sits in the Blue Ridge Mountains just outside Asheville, and staff arrange transportation to and from each day's sessions. Days combine therapy with hiking, group sports, and strength training in the surrounding mountain setting.

Extend Care beyond Treatment

After graduation, Asheville Recovery Center's aftercare program keeps clients connected through ongoing individual and group therapy, an active alumni community, and referrals to local sober living homes. Case managers help clients find area 12-Step meetings and continue care for co-occurring mental health conditions. Therapists also revisit each client's relapse prevention plan as new challenges surface during the high-risk early months of sobriety.

Within the ARC Approach, clients earn expanded privileges and help shape their own treatment plan as they hit milestones, building self-advocacy along the way. Weekly checkpoints extend beyond substance use to mental health, physical wellness, family systems, and job-readiness practice, treating each day as a training ground for life after discharge.
Strengthen Body and Mind
Strengthen Body and Mind
Therapeutic exercise at Asheville Recovery Center pairs cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) with hiking in the Blue Ridge Mountains, casual group sports like basketball, and strength training. Regular movement releases endorphins that ease cravings and lift mood, while shared activities build sober friendships and everyday structure.

The virtual intensive outpatient program (IOP) at Asheville Recovery Center offers the same clinical standards as in-person sessions, letting participants manage work, school, or family responsibilities. Clinician-led group therapy sessions cover psychoeducation, relapse prevention, emotional regulation, and recovery skills. The program meets 5-8 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday, serving clients throughout North Carolina.

A longer stay gives clients more time to recalibrate the brain's reward system, practice new coping skills, and address root causes like trauma. Asheville Recovery Center's 90-day transitional path moves through three 30-day phases: full-day partial hospitalization for stabilization, intensive outpatient care with more independence, then outpatient services while clients return to work or school.

MEDICATION ASSISTED TREATMENT

Supportive Medication for Recovery

Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) is an evidence-based approach that pairs FDA-approved medications with counseling to treat addiction. The medications are used to reduce cravings, ease withdrawal symptoms, or block the effects of substances. More about MAT

Methadone

(Dolophine®, Methadose®)
Reduces opioid cravings
Not Available

Naltrexone

(Vivitrol®, Revia®)
Blocks opioid effects
Available

Buprenorphine

(Suboxone®, Subutex®, Sublocade®, Zubsolv®)
Eases opioid withdrawal
Available

This center prescribes medications for opioid use disorder and also accepts patients receiving MAT prescribed elsewhere.

Note: Treatment centers offer different forms of MAT—such as oral tablets, dissolvable films, or monthly injections—and their policies can vary based on state regulations, provider preferences, and insurance coverage. Because of these differences, it's best to contact the center directly to learn what options are available and what might be right for your situation.
