These types of professionals include:

• CrossFit gym owners
• Lawyers
• Therapists, counselors and life coaches
• Doctors and other medical professionals

We believe that addiction is a manifestation of a deep physical, emotional and spiritual dilemma that can be resolved. Therefore, we do not believe that once this dilemma has been resolved that addicts will continue to suffer from an incurable disease.

We believe that addicts can be restored to living without the need for mind-altering substances. Therefore, we do not believe in replacing drugs or alcohol with other substances or medications that alter cognitive or emotional functions.

We believe that the solution to addiction is two-fold: First, it is necessary to alleviate the physical and emotional aspects of addiction; and second, it is essential to strengthen our clients’ personal determination, self-respect and confidence so they can live a successful life.

We believe that every person is free to have their own set of core beliefs. We allow our clients to accept or reject any part of the teachings administered during their program. We ask only that our clients sincerely engage in all lessons and activities with the intent of affirming, expanding or shifting their views to healthier ones.

We do not believe that people are victims. We acknowledge that some of our clients have been victimized by life circumstances. However, we firmly believe that when they tackle and overcome their problems by accepting responsibility, they can create the life they desire.

We believe that life is to be enjoyed by those who put forth positive effort. Life should not be lived in shame, guilt or regret. Life can and should be fun, fulfilling and rewarding.

We believe the present is the only time where life, action and change occurs. By addressing the present, our clients can alter the course of their future.

We believe that laughter, joy and happiness in the present are more important than dwelling in yesterday’s failures and pain. We help our clients address and take responsibility for their sorrows, regrets and pains of the past so they can more fully experience and enjoy the present.

We do not advocate any particular religion, deity or gods. We support our clients in their personal quest for enlightenment regardless of what belief system they choose.

We believe that self-betterment under any circumstance is a very noble pursuit. We support our clients and the constructive methodologies that will genuinely fulfill those pursuits.

We are committed to our clients who honestly seek help. We support our graduates’ positive goals and hope to see that they succeed on their chosen paths. Get in touch with our drug and alcohol treatment center by calling the number below.
