About Acqua Recovery
Acqua Recovery treats addiction and co-occurring mental health conditions with evidence-based and holistic therapies, tailored treatment plans, and nutritional care. Their medical model of addiction aims to identify each client’s addiction and deeply understand contributing pathophysiological issues. Acqua Recovery provides multiple levels of personalized care, including residential treatment, day treatment (or partial hospitalization), intensive outpatient, aftercare, and separate sober living homes for men and women.
A Comprehensive Range of Therapies for Addiction Recovery
Acqua Recovery addresses co-occurring mental health conditions, including depression, anxiety, trauma, and more. A specific dual-diagnosis assessment determines if clients have a co-occurring disorder and how it connects to their addiction. Evaluations and assessments also help staff craft a unique treatment plan suited to their needs. Clients are supported by experienced staff members including clinical mental health counselors, clinical social workers, substance use counselors, and recovery coaches. Acqua Recovery uses various evidence-based and holistic therapies to treat addiction and underlying mental health conditions. These include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), equine therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), internal family systems therapy (IFS), and more. Holistic options include yoga, music and art therapy, and meditation.
Multiple Levels of Care for Addiction and Co-Occurring Mental Health
Acqua Recovery offers residential and outpatient treatment, as well as sober living homes. In day treatment, clients come to treatment 5 days weekly, from 8:15am–5pm. Clients receive continued individual and group therapy, with one 1:1 session weekly. In intensive outpatient, clients attend 10 hours of weekly treatment from 1–4pm on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. Continued psychoeducation, process groups, and peer support help clients hone their recovery skills. With live-in House Managers, their sober living homes offer a safe and structured environment to thrive and attend recovery groups.
A Recovery Oasis in The Rockies
Acqua Recovery’s sprawling campus is set on 12 acres in the Rocky Mountains. They have a spring lake with fishing opportunities, horses/equine therapy, outdoor adventure activities, and incredible natural views. An on-site organic garden fuels chef-prepared meals. Clients have shared bedrooms with the option of a private room. Acqua Recovery allows clients to bring service animals on-site.
