About Stepping Stones Rehab Centre
Stepping Stones Rehab Center was founded in 1985. They pride themselves on treating men and women who are struggling with drug and alcohol addiction and co-occurring disorders. They strive to help clients and their loved ones to recover and understand their illness and thereby change the direction their lives are going. All of their psychiatric hospitals are staffed by a wide range of medical professionals, including psychiatrists, psychologists, occupational therapists, social workers, pharmacists, and nurses, all of whom are dedicated to providing the best possible client care to ensure the best possible outcome for clients and their loved ones. The therapy programs that clients will attend during their stay form a fundamental base for overall treatment. They use a combination of experiential, family, group, and holistic therapies. Stepping Stones Rehab Center treats many co-occurring disorders such as adolescent disorder (living with a child who is sick or self destructive), ageing disorders, anxiety disorders, bipolar mood disorders, depression, eating disorders, postnatal depression, postpartum psychosis, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Stepping Stone Rehab Center offers semi-private rooms. Clients have access to a gym, outdoor yoga, walking trails, pool, and beach. Activities clients are able to do include AA and NA meetings, nature hikes, swimming, and surfing at the local beach.
