Personal Experiences in Recovery
At Mile High Recovery Center, we’ve curated a dynamic and supportive environment for those seeking recovery. Our team comprises individuals who have walked the very path our clients are on, which infuses our approach with empathy and real-world insight. This shared experience forms a community where clients find not just care, but understanding and camaraderie.
In our nine sober living homes, residents are not just clients; they are part of a larger family dedicated to achieving and sustaining sobriety. Our housing-to-treatment model integrates seamlessly with our personalized care plans, ensuring that each client receives support tailored to their unique journey. Through this model, we aim to offer a solid foundation and consistent support from intake through to alumni involvement.
Integrated Services and Innovative Approaches
The breadth of service offerings at Mile High Recovery is crucial for addressing the myriad needs of our clients. We provide a range of programs including residential treatment, partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP), and outpatient programs, alongside support for medication-assisted treatment options such as Suboxone and Vivitrol.
Our commitment to evidence-based therapies is unwavering. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and EMDR are among the treatment modalities we employ to address both substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders. Yet, we also embrace experiential modalities–equine-assisted therapy, adventure therapy, art, and music activities–as we believe healing occurs in myriad forms.
These integrated services are pivotal in managing substance use disorders such as alcohol, opioids, stimulants, and cannabis, as well as addressing co-occurring disorders like anxiety, PTSD, and bipolar disorder. Our diverse approaches ensure that whether the need is clinical or creative, we meet our clients where they are.
Focus on Family and Community Involvement
At the core of our philosophy is the involvement of family in the recovery process. We know that addiction affects more than the individual; it touches relationships and can disrupt family dynamics. As such, we offer family therapy sessions to foster healing and understanding, creating a stronger support system for our clients.
- Family therapy sessions that aim to rebuild communication channels.
- Community-based programs that integrate family members into the recovery journey.
- Alumni events to maintain a network of support beyond treatment.
Innovative Treatment Modalities
The landscape of addiction treatment is ever-evolving, and at Mile High Recovery, we pride ourselves on staying at the forefront of new methodologies. Our adventure therapy programs, for instance, encourage clients to engage with their recovery in a tangible and active manner. These programs leverage Colorado’s stunning outdoors, turning trails and rock faces into spaces of healing and introspection.
We also incorporate equine-assisted therapy, which has shown incredible success in helping individuals develop emotional regulation skills and build trust. These innovative approaches complement our more traditional therapies, providing a holistic treatment plan that addresses mind, body, and spirit.
Coordinated Care and Continuum of Services
A hallmark of Mile High Recovery is our commitment to coordinated care. From the moment a client enters our facility, they are part of a continuum of services designed to support them through every phase of recovery. Whether they are transitioning from residential treatment to outpatient services or moving from treatment to independent living, our team ensures seamless care.
This continuum is bolstered by our extensive alumni network and ongoing support services. We believe that recovery is a lifelong journey, and by maintaining connections post-treatment, we foster resilience and long-term sobriety. Alumni involvement is a critical component of our program, offering mentorship and community support that helps prevent relapse and encourages growth.
Specialized Programs and Tailored Treatment
Recognizing the diverse needs of our clientele, Mile High Recovery offers specialized programs tailored to varying groups. Our LGBTQ-friendly programs, for example, offer a safe space for individuals to explore their identities and recovery without judgment or discrimination. Similarly, our programs for veterans address the unique challenges they face, integrating trauma-informed care with substance use treatment.
We also provide programs for professionals and adolescents, understanding that these populations require distinct approaches and considerations. By tailoring our programs to meet these specific needs, we ensure comprehensive care that respects and addresses the myriad experiences of our clients.
Role of Mental Health in Addiction Recovery
Mental health plays a pivotal role in the recovery journey, influencing both the onset of addiction and the path to sobriety. At Mile High Recovery, dual diagnosis treatment is an integral part of our service offerings. We address co-occurring mental health conditions such as anxiety, bipolar disorder, and PTSD with the same rigor as substance use disorders.
Our clinicians, many of whom are experienced in both disciplines, work collaboratively with clients to develop treatment plans that consider the full spectrum of their mental health needs. This comprehensive approach not only enhances recovery outcomes but also empowers clients to manage their mental health beyond treatment.
Urban and Outdoor Therapeutic Activities
Our location in Denver City Center positions us uniquely to offer both urban and outdoor therapeutic activities. The vibrant city life provides opportunities for social reintegration, including group outings to museums, theaters, and community events.
Conversely, the proximity to the Rocky Mountains allows us to incorporate outdoor adventures into therapy. Hiking, rock climbing, and yoga in nature are not just recreational activities; they are instrumental components of our therapeutic approach. These activities encourage clients to engage with their recovery physically, promoting mental clarity and emotional release.
Importance of Accreditation and Affiliations
Mile High Recovery’s commitment to excellence is reflected in our accreditations and affiliations. We maintain Joint Commission accreditation, ensuring that our programs meet rigorous national standards of care. Our membership in organizations such as NALGAP further underscores our dedication to serving diverse communities with professionalism and integrity.
These affiliations are more than badges of honor; they are assurances to our clients and partners of the quality and effectiveness of our programs. By continually seeking out and maintaining these standards, we demonstrate our commitment to providing top-tier care that promotes long-term recovery and well-being.
Ensuring Affordable Access to Treatment
Access to rehabilitation services should not be impeded by financial constraints. At Mile High Recovery, we work with major insurance carriers such as Aetna, Cigna, and Blue Cross Blue Shield to facilitate in-network reimbursement and verify client coverage efficiently. This process helps alleviate the financial burden on our clients and allows them to focus on recovery.
We believe that everyone deserves a chance at recovery, regardless of their financial situation. Thus, we offer flexible payment plans and financial assistance options to ensure that our comprehensive range of services is accessible to all who need them.
What are the benefits of integrating personal experiences into recovery programs?
At Mile High Recovery, we believe that incorporating personal experiences into our recovery programs significantly enhances the empathy and understanding we offer to clients. When staff members have walked a similar path, they can provide real-world insights and relatable support, which often fosters a deeper connection with clients. This shared journey allows clients to feel understood and supported by individuals who truly grasp their challenges and triumphs. I’ve seen firsthand how this empathetic approach facilitates trust and open communication, making a profound impact on the recovery process. Have you ever been in a situation where someone else’s experiences provided you with guidance and reassurance? It’s a similar dynamic in our community.
How do family involvement and community activities contribute to recovery?
Family involvement is crucial in the recovery journey because addiction affects not just the individual but the entire family unit. At Mile High Recovery, we integrate family therapy sessions to help rebuild trust and improve communication pathways. These sessions aim to foster a stronger support network for our clients. Equally, community activities such as alumni events and family-integrated programs keep clients engaged with a supportive network even after treatment. These community connections can prevent feelings of isolation and promote sustained sobriety. I’ve witnessed how family and community can act as a profound motivator, encouraging clients to stay committed to their recovery goals. What role has your family or community played in your own life improvements?
What role does mental health play in addiction recovery?
Mental health is intertwined with addiction recovery. It’s not uncommon for individuals struggling with substance use disorders to also face mental health challenges like anxiety or PTSD. At Mile High Recovery, our dual diagnosis approach ensures we address both aspects simultaneously. Our clinicians are adept at crafting comprehensive treatment plans that consider all facets of a client’s mental health, promoting holistic recovery. It’s fascinating to see how addressing underlying mental health issues can considerably enhance addiction treatment outcomes. Why do you think mental health is often overlooked in addiction discussions?
How do urban and outdoor therapeutic activities aid in recovery?
Our location in Denver offers clients a unique blend of urban and outdoor therapeutic activities, each contributing to recovery in different ways. Urban activities, like visits to cultural sites, offer opportunities for social reintegration and engagement. Outdoor activities, such as hiking and rock climbing, not only promote physical well-being but also help clients tap into nature’s calming influence, facilitating emotional release and mental clarity. These varied experiences are instrumental in reinforcing recovery principles through non-traditional, engaging methods. Do you find nature to be a calming influence, and how might that affect your mental health journey?
