OUR PHILOSOPHY

ADVENTURE / SERVICE / COMMUNITY / EXERCISE / NUTRITION

A CONFIDENT APPROACH TO SOBRIETY

Treatment that inspires healthy social connection to bring natural joy back to your life.

At first, you may notice the crisp mountain air and feel inspired by the expansive mountain views; but you will long remember our comprehensive clinical care. We have developed a treatment approach focused on social connection and community while integrating the natural environment with innovative research. Soothing the nervous system is a theme throughout your recovery process. We believe in combining abstinence and harm-reduction models with holistic-based approaches to support your pursuit of lasting recovery. At Crow’s Nest Ranch, we are committed to the person-centered treatment you deserve.

Our Relational Approach

We use an integrative, relational approach and utilize mindfulness practices, creative expression, somatic, and nature-based modalities along with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Neurofeedback, and solution-focused therapies to see and understand a client’s wholeness and to find and support clients in utilizing the right tools for coping and recovering from the root cause of the pain experience. Our passion for recognizing and working with cultural concerns for all people shines through our understanding of how situational circumstances can be the root causes of addictions and mental health symptoms.

DEVELOPING THE PLAN THAT’S RIGHT FOR YOU

Above all, we believe in and celebrate your uniqueness. To us, there is no such thing as “one treatment program fits all.” Before ever designing a recovery plan for you, our Admissions and Clinical Directors will meet with you and evaluate your situation. Only after careful analysis do we begin to devise the right plan for your successful outcome. Our staff-to-client ratio, with dedicated individual sessions per week, amplifies the importance that we place on personalizing your journey.

UNDERSTANDING THE UNDERLYING CAUSES

When you decide to change your life with Crow’s Nest Ranch, you will work with a team that sees you as an individual and understands that you are more than just a statistic. We understand that your substance use disorder may be triggered by any number of underlying causes. So we tailor your care to your unique personality. Simultaneously or team works to eliminate your dependence on alcohol or drugs, we also strive to free you from related conditions ranging from depression and anxiety to trauma, bipolar disorder, and more. It’s one more important way in which we recognize you as a unique individual, worthy of directed care.

Focusing on being fully present and attentive in every moment of life creates the bedrock upon which to build our recovery.

Yoga For Mental Health & Substance Abuse Recovery

The practice of yoga and its slow pace and challenging positions offer a highly rewarding exercise that strengthens the heart and respiratory system while bringing unique physical and mental benefits to those struggling with addiction and mental health issues.
