A Full Continuum of Individualized Care
Pathways Recovery provides a complete continuum of care, from initial detox to outpatient support. Each program is designed to meet clients where they are, offering a personalized path to recovery in a safe, structured, and compassionate environment.
Program Length: 7-10 Days
The first step to recovery begins in a safe, comfortable residential setting. A highly qualified medical team provides 24/7 support and supervision to manage withdrawal symptoms from drugs and alcohol, taking the fear and anxiety out of the process.
Program Length: 30, 60, or 90 Days
Following detox, clients move into gender-specific residential homes (6 men max, 8 women max). This program provides an immersive therapeutic experience with individual and group counseling, trauma therapy, psychiatry, and holistic activities to build a foundation for long-term sobriety.
Schedule: 3 evenings per week for 6 weeks
IOP is a perfect step-down from residential care, allowing individuals to reintegrate into their daily lives while remaining connected to a supportive treatment process. The program consists of weekly group and individual therapy sessions held in the evenings.
This specialized track is designed to meet the unique needs of professionals, executives, and licensed individuals. It offers confidential, gender-specific care with flexible scheduling to address career-related stress, burnout, and addiction in a private, understanding environment.
Environment & Accommodations
Pathways Recovery provides treatment in upscale, comfortable residential homes located in quiet suburban neighborhoods.
