Whether someone is just starting out or looking for a way to stay steady after a major sobriety milestone, the levels of care here adapt to clients’ lives. Through intensive outpatient (IOP), clients can dive deep into building new habits and coping skills while still showing up for work and family. As they grow stronger, they can transition into general outpatient for a few hours a week of continued support and connection.

Repair Relationship with Self and Others

Healing addiction at this center is built on the idea that no one should have to recover in isolation. While every client receives individual therapy twice a week, the real magic happens in small groups. In these settings, the masks come off, allowing men and women to finally feel seen and understood. By blending deep work on trauma with lessons in shame and vulnerability, the program helps clients repair their connection to themselves and the world around them.

Balance Recovery with Daily Routine

This facility is a supportive hub for those balancing recovery with their daily lives. Since it focuses on intensive outpatient care, the amenities here are centered around making treatment stress-free and accessible. Clients find a welcoming environment that offers flexible day and evening sessions, so healing fits into their existing routines. The location is easy to get to, and for those who face travel hurdles, the center provides transportation.

Plan for Success from Day One

From the moment someone enters treatment, the team is already thinking about life after Summit, making sure each person has a plan that fits who they are. The client services team works like detectives, gathering the details that matter and guiding clients toward the right steps for their next chapter. And once clients leave, the alumni program keeps that connection alive through Zoom meetings and events.
