Clients at Wellness Resource Center transition through 2 Phases of recovery. Phase 1 is a day treatment (or partial hospitalization) program with 7 days of weekly treatment. Apartment-style housing offers a safe and substance-free residence. Treatment takes place from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. on weekends.

They provide a blend of evidence-based and holistic therapies, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), 12-Step facilitation, equine therapy, experiential group therapy, and nutritional therapy.

The amount of time each client spends during Phase 1 and 2 of their recovery is specifically tailored and customizable depending on the client's needs and recommendations from staff.

In a PHP, patients live at home but follow an intensive schedule of treatment. Most programs require you to be on-site for about 40 hours per week.
Alcohol
Using alcohol as a coping mechanism, or drinking excessively throughout the week, signals an alcohol use disorder.
