About The Camp Recovery Center
The Camp offers a full continuum of care to help adults 18 and older develop the recovery skills needed to break the cycle of addiction. Their team of specialists creates individualized plans for detoxification, residential care, day treatment, or intensive outpatient treatment (IOP). Guided by the philosophy that “recovery means life,” they help clients not only regain control but also find joy and purpose in sober living. Through holistic care, family involvement, co-occurring mental health treatment, and ongoing support, The Camp fosters lasting change that extends far beyond treatment.
Combine Therapies in a Personalized Plan
The Camp’s programming begins with a thorough drug and alcohol assessment to tailor treatment to each client’s unique needs. Their approach blends the 12-Step philosophy with evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), individual and group counseling, and chemical dependency education. Clients also engage in sober recreational activities and relapse prevention planning, ensuring they build the skills and support needed for lasting recovery.
Immerse in a Structured Daily Routine
Each day at The Camp is highly structured, combining therapy, education, and peer support in a dynamic recovery environment. Clients participate in small-group discussions, process groups, and relapse prevention planning while exploring personal challenges and developing healthier coping strategies. With opportunities for self-reflection, connection, and skill-building, clients gain the confidence and support needed to sustain long-term sobriety.
Enjoy Nature as a Backdrop for a New Beginning
