GreeneStone Centre for Recovery has just 30 beds, so every client receives personal attention. Located on 43 acres of tranquil property in Bala, Ontario, it is the ideal location for healing and recovery. Care begins with safe, medically supervised detox and moves into residential treatment that addresses addiction alongside co-occurring mental health concerns. For those who can't step away from home, a virtual version of the residential programme brings that same structured, supportive care to them, wherever they are.

Personalise Recovery from Day One

Before anyone arrives, a psychological assessment helps the clinical team build a plan around that person's story, whether they're coming in for alcohol, opioids, or another substance, and even when they have complex medical needs. Each week, clients have 3 individual sessions where they meet one-on-one with addiction counsellors and a psychotherapist, then bring what they're learning into group therapy. The core programme runs 42 days, and some clients stay longer if needed.

Rest and Recharge Among the Trees

At GreeneStone, clients settle into a private or semi-private room, each with its own bathroom, on forested, gated grounds beside Lake Muskoka. With just 30 beds, the feel is cosy and personal. Between sessions, there's room to move and reset: swim lengths in the indoor pool, find calm in the yoga studio, shoot hoops, play tennis, or work out in the gym. It's a peaceful place to rest, reflect, and rebuild strength, one day at a time.

Stay Connected After Treatment

After treatment ends, clients can join weekly aftercare groups, onsite or online, and check in weekly with their addiction counsellor for a month to talk through the move home and the early challenges of recovery. If needed, a simple assessment helps decide how much support fits each person, including step-down care, and extra virtual options are available as well. Alumni days and an app keep graduates connected to the GreeneStone family.

Testimonial
The facilities, food, and program are a blessing for those seeking a new beginning. At all times I was treated with kindness, and respect. They listened, challenged and helped me process my life journey and experiences with addiction. I am grateful for the aftercare; through phone calls, emails or weekly zoom connections they have helped me solidify both my sobriety and life change.

Feel Confident That Treatment is Working
At GreeneStone, care is guided by real results. Three times during treatment, clients complete simple, standardised questionnaires that show how they're doing and how far they've come. Therapists use those answers to fine-tune each person's plan along the way. And with the same high quality standards checked across all their sites, clients can feel confident they're getting quality care.
Bring Family Along on the Road To Recovery
Bring Family Along on the Road To Recovery
GreeneStone knows addiction touches everyone at home, so families are part of the journey. Family communication sessions help clients and loved ones work through tough conversations and turn resentment into understanding. Meanwhile, the virtual family support programme, a 6-week course on topics like boundaries, attachment, and emotional regulation, gives loved ones tools to support recovery while caring for themselves.

Discover What a Day in Treatment Looks Like
Days at GreeneStone start with breakfast and a morning group, followed by shared meals, more group sessions, and time to breathe. Clients build skills in emotion regulation, communication, relapse prevention, and healthy relationships, then balance it with yoga, sound healing, meditation, or outings offsite. In the evening, clients eat dinner, attend AA or NA meetings, or enjoy a game night.

GreeneStone's 4- or 6-week online programme offers an alternative to residential treatment, bringing structured care straight into clients' homes. They can heal surrounded by the people they love, keep showing up for work and family, and still receive one-on-one therapy and live group support, with day or evening options and aftercare that continues long after graduation.
