About Elevate Addiction Services - Skylake Recovery Center
Elevate Addiction Services - Sky Lake Recovery Center is a retreat-like detox, residential, and outpatient treatment center set in the gorgeous pines of the Lake Tahoe region. This center specializes in holistic, non-12-step treatment that can range from 30-60 days, depending on the clients’ needs. Their signature Elevate Method propels clients to live a purpose-driven life free from substances. Elevate believes that everyone deserves a second chance, and their programs provide just that.
At Elevate, recovery isn’t just about sobriety—it’s about rediscovering oneself and creating a life filled with purpose and joy. Rather than believing that people are victims of the lifelong disease of addiction, their approach focuses on addressing root causes to help clients heal from within. The team prioritizes all-encompassing healing using both science-backed therapies and interactive ways of healing. They try not to prescribe medication as a first line of defense for mental health conditions, giving the body a chance to replenish what substances have taken away. Through their intensive individual and group therapy, clients come to their own conclusions and create their own path to a brighter future.
Reminiscent of a summer camp, with its setting inside a grove of pine trees, their large lodge-style building sits on beautiful grounds to breathe fresh mountain air and enjoy watching beautiful wildlife. While this center does see several inches of snow each year, clients can still bundle up and take advantage of the great outdoors. After a day of therapy and outdoor activities, clients enjoy nutritious meals that often feature fresh, local food. During down time, clients can play a friendly game of ping pong or watch a movie with peers.
The journey to recovery doesn’t end with graduation—it’s just the beginning of a lifelong commitment to sobriety. Residential graduates participate in a heartwarming ceremony with family and friends to celebrate their hard-earned success. Each client then leaves with a customized post-treatment plan. They get to meet one-on-one with a continuing-care counselor, have regular checkup calls, and attend support groups. They also offer a safety net through their Graduate Assurance Plan which allows clients to return to treatment for up to 30 days within 6 months of leaving.

Elevate’s innovative non-12-step program offers a refreshing alternative for those seeking a different path to sobriety. Their approach emphasizes personal accountability, confronting life’s challenges head-on, and living with integrity. This method requires radical honesty to build a life based on authenticity. As current research evolves and best practices change, Elevate incorporates the latest methods into their approach as well.
The inpatient program at Elevate is strategically broken down into 4 phases. The journey begins with detox where clients undergo stabilization to rid the body of substances. The next phase focuses on physical and emotional healing including rebuilding strength through exercise, nutrition, and mindfulness. Phase 3 helps clients build life skills and prevent relapse. And phase 4 helps clients transition into daily life free from addiction.
There’s no need to put everything on hold to pursue recovery. From the comfort of clients’ own spaces, they can join an intensive outpatient program (IOP) that includes regular check-ins, educational sessions, mindfulness, and group therapy. Every counseling session is done via video conferencing. Flexible scheduling and acceptance of major insurance carriers allows clients to reclaim their lives on their own schedules.
Recovery at Elevate is transformed into a genuinely positive experience. Their focus on healing the mind, body, and spirit creates overall well-being and shifts clients away from a victim mentality and moves them toward empowerment. And their major emphasis on group therapy and activities provide opportunities to form lasting friendships with peers on similar journeys.
