About Momentum Recovery - The Creek
Momentum Recovery - The Creek offers addiction and mental health treatment for young men (age 18–30). The Creek’s gender-specific program contains comprehensive clinical and life skills programming, from a holistic perspective. Using a custom four-phase long-term treatment approach, residents receive a mix of therapies, education, and experiential activities, which helps each community member feel equipped for life free from drugs and alcohol.
Throughout each phase on the continuum of care, young men will receive personalized case management, immersion in the local recovery community, family programming, adventure-based therapy, educational support, financial skills development, vocational support, nutritional support, and opportunities for recreation. The young adult recovery community in the Wilmington area is incredibly active, offering lots of opportunities for fellowship, support, fun, and personal growth. The Creek encourages residents to form relationships with other people as they walk through the recovery process.
The Creek uses a dual-diagnosis approach to addiction treatment, which means they treat the addiction by addressing the underlying mental health conditions that contributed to the addiction. Therapies employed in the program consist of eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), recreational therapy, yoga, and other evidence-based and experiential therapies. Clinicians work individually with clients to uncover and heal trauma and other co-occurring disorders. Family members are also involved in the treatment process, in order to ensure comprehensive healing for the entire family system.
The Creek specializes in facilitating goal development and attainment in a therapeutic, adventurous setting. Their phased approach leads clients through a residential program, followed by an outpatient program, which allows them extended care to continue strengthening the skills learned in residential treatment. The Creek’s sober living component offers the community, support, and stability a young man needs in early recovery. The final phase occurs when clients move out on their own, but with continued individual therapy sessions and regular drug tests, and further involvement in the Wilmington recovery community. In this phase, clients can continue to implement the tools they’ve learned while relying on the safety net that The Creek’s trusted clinicians and community can provide.
