Trafalgar Addiction Treatment Centres in Ontario is small on purpose, with just around 20 people in residential care at a time. Its 42-day program begins with safe, medically supervised detox and transitions into residential care that treats addictions alongside co-occurring mental health concerns. A virtual intensive program also exists to extend care to people at home.

Personalize Recovery from Day One

Before anyone arrives, a psychological assessment helps the clinical team build a plan around that person's story, whether they're coming in for alcohol, opioids, or another substance, and even when they have complex medical needs. Each week, clients have 3 individual sessions where they meet one-on-one with addiction counselors and a psychotherapist, then bring what they're learning into group therapy. The core program runs 42 days, and some clients stay longer if needed.

Rest and Recharge Among the Trees

Trafalgar's residential centre in Erin, Ontario, sits on a quiet, tree-lined gravel drive, surrounded by forest. The brick home has a tall wall of windows that fills the inside with natural light. Clients can curl up in a comfy chair in the bright living room, relax by the fireplace, or pick up the guitar in the corner. Meals are prepared in a large, welcoming kitchen that opens onto a covered deck, with patio seating and treetop views. Between sessions, clients can also walk the trails, work out in the fitness centre, play volleyball, or try yoga.

Stay Connected After Treatment

After treatment ends, clients can join weekly aftercare groups, onsite or online, and check in weekly with their addiction counsellor for a month to talk through the move home and the early challenges of recovery. If needed, a simple assessment helps decide how much support fits each person, including step-down care, and extra virtual options are available as well. Alumni days and an app keep graduates connected to the Trafalgar family.

Testimonial
I participated in remote Virtual Addiction Treatment Program through Trafalgar for 4 weeks. The sessions were pretty good, but the individual counselling, and the follow up were better than I could have imagined. The Aftercare sessions and questionnaires keep me focused and gave me a level of support I did not anticipate.

Feel Confident That Treatment is Working
Feel Confident That Treatment is Working
At Trafalgar, care is guided by real results. Three times during treatment, clients complete simple, standardized questionnaires that show how they're doing and how far they've come. Therapists use those answers to fine-tune each person's plan along the way. And with the same high quality standards checked across all their sites, clients can feel confident they're getting quality care.
Bring Family Along on the Road To Recovery
Bring Family Along on the Road To Recovery
Trafalgar knows addiction touches everyone at home, so families are part of the journey. Family communication sessions help clients and loved ones work through tough conversations and turn resentment into understanding. Meanwhile, the virtual family support program, a 6-week course on topics like boundaries, attachment, and emotional regulation, gives loved ones tools to support recovery while caring for themselves.

Days at Trafalgar start with breakfast and a morning group, followed by shared meals, more group sessions, and time to breathe. Clients build skills in emotion regulation, communication, relapse prevention, and healthy relationships, then balance it with yoga, sound healing, meditation, or outings offsite. In the evening, clients eat dinner, attend AA or NA meetings, or enjoy a game night.

Trafalgar's 4- or 6-week online program offers an alternative to residential treatment, bringing structured care straight into clients' homes. They can heal surrounded by the people they love, keep showing up for work and family, and still receive one-on-one therapy and live group support, with day or evening options and aftercare that continues long after graduation.

MEDICATION ASSISTED TREATMENT

Supportive Medication for Recovery

Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) is an evidence-based approach that pairs FDA-approved medications with counseling to treat addiction. The medications are used to reduce cravings, ease withdrawal symptoms, or block the effects of substances. More about MAT

This center offers MAT, but does not list specific medications for treatment. Contact the center for details for specific MAT medications.

Note: Treatment centers offer different forms of MAT—such as oral tablets, dissolvable films, or monthly injections—and their policies can vary based on state regulations, provider preferences, and insurance coverage. Because of these differences, it's best to contact the center directly to learn what options are available and what might be right for your situation.
