Additional Therapeutic Services

Music Therapy

Music has the power to heal. Our board-certified music therapist uses rhythm, melody, and self-expression to help reduce stress, expand healthy outlets, improve mood, and promote emotional healing.

Pet Therapy

A licensed professional counselor brings a therapy dog weekly to provide comfort, connection, and support. Pet therapy can reduce anxiety, enhance mood, and create a warm, safe environment for healing.

Trauma-Informed Care

We understand that many people seeking care have experienced trauma. Our trauma-informed approach emphasizes safety, trust, collaboration, and empowerment, creating a space where you can heal at your own pace.

Family Sessions

When appropriate, we invite families to participate in therapy sessions. These meetings help loved ones understand the recovery process and learn how to provide effective support.

Assistance with FMLA & Work Navigation

Our team can help you complete FMLA paperwork and navigate time off work for daytime programming, ensuring you can focus on your recovery without added stress.

Transportation Assistance
