About Tikvah Lake Recovery
Tikvah Lake Recovery provides a private, six-bed luxury retreat for executives and individuals seeking addiction and mental health treatment. Their personalized approach ensures each client receives tailored care, whether in the 30- to 90-day residential program or the 10-day accelerated executive program. With daily support from the clinical director and a dedicated concierge team, clients experience world-class treatment, discretion, and comfort in a serene, 15,000-square-foot lakeside estate.
Tikvah Lake’s 3-phase approach begins with an orientation week to develop personalized treatment plans, address co-occurring mental health disorders, and introduce healthy living practices alongside Step One of Alcoholics Anonymous/Narcotics Anonymous (AA/NA). In the second phase, clients engage in therapy, develop coping skills, and deepen their understanding of addiction as a manageable disease while advancing to Step Two. The final phase focuses on life after treatment, including crafting individualized aftercare plans and starting Step Three to support a smooth transition to long-term recovery.
Tikvah Lake’s residential program emphasizes individual therapy, offering 8-10 hours of one-on-one sessions per week, including multiple daily cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) sessions to support behavioral and lifestyle changes. Clients benefit from a blend of holistic therapies, including yoga, energy work, meditation, and balanced nutrition. Comprehensive care goes beyond primary treatment through the Future Care program, which provides weekly remote therapy with their clinicians to help clients sustain recovery. The first 30 days of Future Care are included, with the option to continue ongoing support.
Tikvah Lake’s grounds boast a pool, spa, dock, and boat on a 200-acre lake. Their elegant mansion has a library, lounge areas, private therapy spaces, a recreational room, gym, and office space for clients. Clients stay in large private bedrooms with en suites, and a separate villa accommodation is available. A gourmet chef serves all meals around the dining table to encourage a sense of family. Snacks and fruit are available all day, along with tea and coffee. Clients also benefit from proximity to a state park with miles of hiking trails. Phones and laptops are permitted to help clients stay connected to work and family.
