Our Skilled mental health addiction professionals
Asheville treatment center was founded by people who truly believe in the power of recovery because they have lived it themselves. From the pain of addiction came the healing of sobriety for our founders, and they are passionate about offering that opportunity to any addict or alcoholic who needs help.
Real recovery comes from love, accountability, honesty, and spiritual development, but people often can’t get there without quality clinical treatment. That’s the purpose of Asheville Recovery Center- to provide clinical addiction treatment services without losing sight of what recovery really means. We don’t recover alone; we do it with the support of others.
Having developed a unique, hybrid model of treatment which combines a traditional 12-step program with holistic rehabilitation, Asheville Recovery Center offers superior addiction treatment services within the region.
Addiction is difficult to overcome alone. If you or a loved one is struggling with addiction, contact the professionals at Asheville Recovery Center today at (828)518-6996 and take the next step towards a drug-free life.
Asheville Recovery Center was founded to address the need for effective treatment in an intimate, supportive environment, and to bridge the gap between evidence-based therapeutic practice and spiritual and emotional care. The result is a program that aims to care for the whole individual: mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually in a real-world environment that also provides accountability, safety, a good dose of tough love, and a tight-knit, family setting.
By combining effective therapeutic methods, clinical supervision, and an environment that nurtures a sense of solidarity, Asheville recovery Center is a leader in addiction treatment and recovery services. With our caring clinical staff, individuals are able to relax and focus solely on their sobriety while in a comfortable, home-like setting.
The essential elements of our Asheville treatment center are highly qualified, trained clinicians with experience in addressing the disease of addiction, locating its root source, confronting past trauma, and an approach of compassion and care for each individual who walks through the doors of the facility. As stated by the National Institute on Drug Abuse, matching treatment settings, interventions, and services to an individual’s particular problems and needs is critical to his or her ultimate success in returning to productive functioning in the family, workplace, and society. That is why we tailor each program to the client’s unique needs. At Asheville Recovery Center, our aim is to provide treatment that’s backed up by evidence and delivers results without ever sacrificing the intimacy necessary to truly connect with our clients.
