About Heritage Treatment Foundation
An hour away from Montreal, Heritage Treatment Foundation is a residential treatment center specializing in a non-12-Step approach. They use a combination of evidence-based treatments focused on psychotherapy, pharmacotherapy, and alternative therapies to address the client’s addiction and contributing mental health issues. Heritage places an emphasis on positive psychology in their clients’ schedules. They believe that recovery is a process of reinventing oneself as a happier, sober, stronger person, and this is why positive psychology is so vital in this process. Heritage accepts only 12 clients at a time so more attention can be given to each client. Some of the evidence-based therapies they offer include cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), rational emotive behavioural therapy (REBT), psychodynamic therapy, and cognitive bias modification therapy, all with a focus on individual and group psychotherapy. If the client’s conditions warrant it, medication-assisted treatment can be provided. Heritage has on-site detox and an aftercare program with strong alumni support through weekly meetings.
Heritage’s comfortable cottage home promotes relaxation for their clients’ healing process. The bedrooms are air-conditioned and equipped with high speed internet and a television. Some of the alternative therapies offered include yoga, meditation, massage, acupuncture, stress management, art therapy, tai-chi, rituals, and more. Heritage additionally has a wide variety of fun activities like biking, hiking, kayaking, golfing, fishing, geo-trekking, zip-lining, boating, bowling, camping, gardening, local excursions, photography, pottery, and art therapy. Heritage understands that nutrition is important in the recovery process, so their nutritionist, Professor Louise Thibault, a Professor of Human Nutrition and Dietetics at McGill University in Montreal, helps create meal plans using fresh, local, and sustainable foods. They can also accommodate the needs of individuals with specific dietary requirements, including diabetic, vegan, vegetarian, lactose-intolerance, and allergies.

Individual Treatment
Individual care meets the needs of each patient, using personalized treatment to provide them the most relevant care and greatest chance of success.
Non 12 Step

Therapies

Art Therapy

Experiential Therapy
With this approach, patients heal by doing. Therapists help patients process difficult emotions to speak, using guided activities like art or dance.
Eye Movement Therapy (EMDR)
Lateral, guided eye movements help reduce the emotional reactions of retelling and reprocessing trauma, allowing intense feelings to dissipate.
Motivational Interviewing and Enhancement Therapy (MET)
This approach is based on idea that motivation to change comes from within. Providers use a conversational framework that may help you commit to recovery.
Music Therapy
Singing, performing, and even listening to music can be therapeutic. Music therapy sessions are facilitated by certified counselors.
Recreation Therapy
In recreation therapy, recovery can be joyful. Patients practice social skills and work through emotional triggers by engaging in fun activities.
