Wildwood Recovery enthusiastically welcomes families to participate in the treatment of their loved one, offering addiction education, guidance and encouragement for those supporting loved ones in recovery. Weekly family nights offer special activities and groups for relatives, and personalized family and marital counseling sessions can be facilitated.

Wildwood addiction professionals carefully consider medication on an individual basis. Many of our clients at Wildwood benefit from medication to ease symptoms of anxiety, depression, withdrawal and cravings, particularly during the detoxification process.

While fears about the alcohol and drug detoxification process are common, most individuals find these concerns unfounded. Through a combination of modern medicine, careful supervision, and supportive counseling, withdrawal symptoms and cravings can be managed. In most cases, detoxification lasts fewer than two weeks, with symptoms beginning to subside after a few days, giving way to feelings of improved health, mental clarity and overall well-being.

Treatment plans are reviewed and amended when necessary as recovery progresses, creating a dynamic and adjustable therapeutic process.

Many of the clients we treat come to us having relapsed after past drug and alcohol recovery efforts. For many patients, relapse simply indicates further recovery work needs to be accomplished. Relapse prevention is integrated throughout our treatment process. We also offer dedicated transitional planning services, as well as continual after care support to fortify successful recovery.

Each client who completes treatment at Wildwood Recovery receives professional placement in an after care environment, tailored to their individual progress, personal needs and resources.
