About Searidge Foundation
Searidge Foundation specializes in treating alcohol and drug addiction, with medically supervised detox, residential care limited to 12 clients at a time, and robust aftercare that supports clients well beyond their stay. Their comprehensive approach involves psychotherapy, pharmacotherapy, and alternative therapies, preparing residents for a life of recovery.
Treat Addiction & Its Root Causes
Searidge combines evidence-based therapies with alternative healing practices to address both the roots of addiction and the behaviour itself. With options ranging from cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and psychodynamic therapy to yoga, art, and journaling, clients gain skills suited for a life free of addictive and self-destructive behaviour. They also prescribe and manage medications to assist clients in controlling cravings and to address other needs.
Improve Wellness with Fitness & Nutrition
Searidge encourages clients to complement the mental and emotional work of psychotherapy with fitness and nutrition. They provide access to a swimming pool and exercise room on-site, as well as an off-site gym, where clients can take advantage of an adaptable fitness program. In the community kitchen, meals are guided by a dietary nutritionist to help restore neurological health, control cravings, and rebuild a healthy relationship with food.
Feel at Home in a Peaceful, Private Location
Located close enough to Halifax for convenience, yet far enough from potential triggers, Searidge is a peaceful setting to focus on recovery. Clients stay in private, air-conditioned rooms with ensuite bathrooms, internet, and cable—spaces for rest, privacy, and reflection overlooking North Mountain. Amenities include a heated pool, fitness room, library, and game room, while chefs prepare fresh, seasonal meals. Clients can bring pets to provide a sense of emotional safety.
