About Wolf Creek Recovery

Wolf Creek Recovery provides outpatient care for those struggling with addiction, grief, trauma, mood disorders and other co-occurring conditions. What makes Wolf Creek stand apart from the rest Is there ability and mission to reconnect individuals to their loved ones, passions, and ultimately themselves. Wolf Creek therapy experts come up with what they like to call a “strategy” that considers one's strength and weaknesses as well as long-term recovery goals. These strategies are highly personalized treatment plans that take the unique situation of each individual into consideration.
Wolf Creek Recovery takes a value-based approach when treating addictions and co-occurring disorders including values like honesty, respect, compassion, commitment, and courage. They understand that all these values are especially needed when navigating the effects of addiction. Wolf Creek Recovery also uses a holistic approach for helping those find freedom through art and music therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), eye movement therapy (EMDR), sports therapy, and more. All these aid in the recovery process while at the same time helping clients find new passions in life. It's impossible to overlook the benefits of spending time outside and Wolf Creek takes the time to help clients find new hobbies such as yoga, tennis, disc golf, and more. Clients gain useful knowledge on how to improve their physical, social, spiritual, and psychological well-being during the process.
Wolf Creek's Recovery programs typically range from 30 to 60 days. Their Extended Care Program is comparable to the regular outpatient programs, with the exception that it is longer offering assistance after clients return home and gradually reintegrate into daily life. During this program, individuals will continue to participate in support groups and attend outpatient therapy sessions as part of the program, typically lasting 90 days.
