Receive Tailored Treatment from Master’s-Level Therapists
Legacy Recovery Center is not a one-size-fits-all program. All clients receive a comprehensive assessment to determine the biological, psychological, and social aspects of their mental health disorder or addiction, and treatment is tailored to their specific needs. Treatment is provided through psychotherapy, psychiatric care, modalities specific to clients’ diagnoses, and holistic approaches like physical exercise, spiritual exploration, healthy eating habits, meditation, yoga, and rediscovering passions in life. Support groups such as 12-Step programs are optional.
Find Healing in a Home-Like Space
With 5 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, full-size beds in semi-private spaces, multiple living rooms, and plenty of room to breathe, the environment is designed to help clients relax and reset. A swimming pool, hot tub, backyard, and full on-site gym offer healthy ways to unwind, while acupuncture, yoga, and a personal trainer support each client’s physical and nutritional healing. Electronics are reintroduced usually after seven days, or sooner for those who need to stay connected to work or children. And families can visit after a week.
Transition Home with Aftercare in Place
Because Legacy maintains close, real relationships with trusted aftercare providers in Phoenix and across the country—providers they’ve personally visited, vetted, and built connections with—patients can feel confident they’re being referred to people who genuinely care and know what they’re doing.
