Since 1977, this CARF-accredited center has provided medically supervised withdrawal management and comprehensive addiction treatment exclusively for women, operating 24 hours daily at their Willo Lane location.
Their medical detox program serves as the foundation for recovery, followed by residential treatment, outpatient programs, and sober living options. The facility specializes in alcohol detox, opioid detox, and withdrawal management for various substances, with particular expertise in treating pregnant women and mothers with children. Their detox programs incorporate medically supervised protocols to ensure safe withdrawal from drugs and alcohol.
Under the clinical direction of Executive Director Heather Black-Coyne, LMFT, CADC II, treatment combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and EMDR with trauma-focused interventions. The center addresses co-occurring disorders and PTSD alongside substance use disorders, recognizing the complex needs of women in recovery. Art therapy, music therapy, and yoga complement traditional therapeutic approaches.
The facility serves pregnant women, young adults, seniors, and women with children, accepting TRICARE, private insurance, and self-pay arrangements.
