About Ardu Recovery Center
Ardu Recovery Center is a CARF-accredited addiction treatment facility located in Provo, Utah, in Utah County, serving patients across Utah and nationally. The program combines clinically rigorous traditional therapy with a notably broad menu of integrative and alternative modalities — IV amino acid therapy, VibroAcoustic Therapy, Oxygen Therapy, Serenity Float Spa, Sweat Lodge, Art Therapy, Yoga, and Nutritional Therapy — making it one of the more amenity-rich rehabs in the Mountain West.
The clinical core is anchored by Clinical Director Kael Pope, LCSW, and a layered medical team: Dr. Stuart Porter, D.O. (Board Certified by the American Board of Family Medicine), Dr. Derry Brinley, Jerry Graves, FNP, Physician Assistant Blake Rapier (Detox Medical Provider), and physician Josh Arnold. Detoxification is supported by Suboxone and Subutex treatment for opioid withdrawal, with the medical team available for medication management throughout each phase of care.
The Residential Clinician team — Alema Harrington (LASUDC), Crystal Stewart (SUDC), Mckay Horsley (CASUDC), Tanner Moffat (LCSW), and Matthew Nuttall (SUDC) — provides individual and group therapy across CBT, DBT, family therapy, experiential therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and trauma therapy. Outpatient therapy is led by Nathan Rowe, SUDC. Programs are split into men’s and women’s tracks, and the continuum extends from detox through residential, day treatment, IOP, outpatient, and sober living.
Ardu treats the full spectrum of substance use disorders — alcohol, opioids (including heroin, fentanyl, oxycodone, codeine, methadone), cocaine, methamphetamine, benzodiazepines (including Xanax), marijuana, and prescription drugs — with dedicated dual diagnosis programming for co-occurring anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The center accepts Medicaid, TRICARE, private insurance, state insurance, and self-pay, and emphasizes verification of in-network status during admissions.
