Quality, affordable drug addiction treatment in tranquil environment

Tranquil environment helps in drug addiction treatment

On a sprawling, private 39 acre retreat in the foothills of the Berkshires lies one of the most effective addiction treatment facilities in the nation.

Over 12 years ago, Mountainside Drug Rehab and Alcohol Treatment Center was founded by a group of professionals who shared one common goal: incorporating new treatment modalities into what then was accepted in order to better help individuals to get into recovery from his/her addiction.

To date, its program has not only helped over 5,000 people on the road to recovery, but has set a new standard for drug rehabs and the entire drug treatment field.

By utilizing accepted, core addiction treatment standards and philosophies, Mountainside combined many innovative treatment modalities into its program and created a truly unique individualized treatment program that has been widely acclaimed by professionals in the treatment field.

“We believe that the key to recovery is our individualized approach to treatment,” begins a spokesperson for Mountainside Drug Rehab and Alcohol Treatment Center. “We view each person as an individual - we do not have just one treatment program that is used for everyone. As a leading force among drug rehabilitation facilities, we have pioneered this successful approach of personalizing the treatment to each individual’s needs. Through evidence-based treatment, we’ve learned that people respond better and have greater success if they are treated and seen as unique. When a person enters our facility, we do a complete and personalized evaluation and intake that is comprised of the individual’s drug history, any previous treatment and his/her specific issues. Through this process, we get more insight into the individual and how he or she has, or will, respond to various therapies within our program. Our team of licensed, credentialed counselors and social workers put together a treatment plan that is unique to this one individual - one that gives him/her the most optimum chance for recovery. We call this the holistic drug rehab model, and it has been so successful that it has won widespread acclaim throughout the addiction treatment field.”

The holistic drug rehab program focuses on treatment of the individual’s entire well-being, from the physical to the emotional and spiritual. Through our unique program offerings such as Yoga and guided meditation, individuals are able to gain more insight into their addiction and how it is affecting their lives and the lives of others.

The compassionate, caring treatment team at Mountainside Drug Rehab and Alcohol Treatment Center is comprised of licensed and certified counselors and social workers as well as an on-staff Nurse Practitioner and a Registered Nurse, both of whom have specializations and extensive experience in drug addiction and alcohol treatment. For clients who may have psychiatric issues and/or a dual diagnosis, Mountainside provides the services of a Psychiatrist who also has specialization in addictions. As a result of their unique, innovative approaches to addiction treatment over the past 12 years, Mountainside has become the model for the addiction treatment field.

The program, along with its professional addiction treatment team, has earned national recognition and resulted in Mountainside being invited to Washington by the White House to meet with the White House Drug Czar, John P. Waters, for an in-depth meeting on what makes its program so successful. These accolades did not go unnoticed within the addiction treatment field and resulted in the adoption by many throughout the country of a more holistic approach to drug addiction treatment.
