About Stepworks Recovery Centers
Stepworks Recovery Centers operates a network of men’s addiction treatment programs across Kentucky, with locations in London, Bowling Green, Elizabethtown, Nicholasville, and elsewhere. The London campus serves men in Laurel County and surrounding southeastern Kentucky, providing a structured continuum of care under a single program brand.
Clinical services begin with a 30-day detox and residential program where men safely manage withdrawal and engage in early recovery. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a core modality, with individual and group sessions reinforcing relapse prevention and disease management skills. Stepworks pairs traditional therapy with medication-assisted treatment (MAT), using physician-managed medications such as Suboxone or Vivitrol for clients with opioid or alcohol use disorders, alongside counseling. For those who need shorter-term withdrawal support without full residential treatment, short-stay detox is also offered.
After residential care, clients can step down into the intensive outpatient program (IOP), which combines three group therapy sessions and one individual therapy session per week, helping men maintain progress while reintegrating into work and family. Sober living apartments on the Stepworks network give men a drug-free transitional housing option while continuing IOP, smoothing the bridge from residential treatment to independent living.
Founded by Tom Ingram, MD, Stepworks emphasizes a mission of helping people reclaim dignity and build a better life after addiction. The program is CARF accredited and accepts most commercial insurance plans and Kentucky Medicaid, including Anthem BlueCross, Aetna, Humana, CareSource, Passport, Wellcare, Optum, and Cigna.
