Individual Therapy

Individual therapy is provided weekly to each Eden Hill guest by a licensed clinician. Individual therapy is a joint process between a therapist and person receiving care. Primary goals of individual therapy are to increase self-knowledge regarding thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, to enhance overall wellbeing and improve quality of life, to build mastery over self-defeating behaviors and thoughts through the development of healthy coping strategies, and to increase agency and autonomy. At Eden Hill we utilize evidence-based and trauma informed practices to best support our guests. Please visit our ‘Who We Are’ page to learn more about our team.

Group Therapy and Support

Eden Hill offers three levels of group support:

-Intensive Outpatient Program- The guests of Eden Hill participate in a gender-specific IOP group for their first three months of residence. IOP meets three days per week for three hours per session with a licensed clinician. IOP utilizes the benefits of the peer-based group process to investigate therapeutic topics related to substance abuse and mental health while strengthening coping strategies to facilitate improvements in overall well-being and recovery commitment.

-In-House Group Meetings- Eden Hill provides group meetings at the residence to provide structure, daily support, and application based psychoeducational and processing content to foster recovery management skills.

-12-Step Based Program- Each guest is expected to attend one support group meeting per day. This includes groups such as Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous, and Refuge Recovery. Guests are encouraged to seek sponsorship with-in these groups and to work the 12-steps.

Case Management

Case management is a vital component of our comprehensive program conducted by certified addictions counselors. In case management, guests have the opportunity to develop individual relapse prevention plans and troubleshoot barriers to their recovery and overall well-being to include housing, interpersonal relationships, career/school plans and scenarios, pending legal actions, and financial well-being among other topics. Guests identify short-term and long-term goals with the help of their therapist and case manager and utilize case management to identify the steps to fulfill those goals. Developing self-care routines, time management skills, and a plan to be successful in activities of daily living are also common topics to cover in case management.

Family Therapy

Family and couples therapy is available to guests upon request and is highly encouraged as fostering healthy support is protective to a person’s recovery. Our licensed clinician is available to conduct these sessions in person or virtually, as needed. Addiction affects the entire family unit and best results are achieved when the family heals together.

Psychiatric Treatment

Each guest meets with one of our trained prescribers for psychotropic medication maintence and management. Stabilizing mood and other mental health disorders is a vital step in the recovery process as untreated mental health symptoms can make a person more vulnerable to relapse. Research has found that the use of certain medications can also reduce cravings for drugs and alcohol. At Eden Hill we support the use of Vivitrol, Naltrexone, Acamprosate, and Antabuse as recovery medication aids.

Addressing Wellness and Lifestyle

Addiction is a disease that attacks ALL aspects of one's life, and taking care of one's physical and spiritual health is of paramount importance. Many individuals in active addiction and alcoholism may neglect their health, bodies, household and hobbies which they are passionate about.

An Everyday Practice

In sobriety, the practice of self-love includes maintaining a healthy diet, participating in physical activity, and cultivating a mindfulness and meditation practice. We strongly believe that an important aspect of wellness is for individuals to partake in activities outside of the therapeutic programming that bring joy. Commitment to these practices help to build self-esteem and are supportive to long-term sobriety.

At Eden Hill we promote wellness by offering a weekly yoga and meditation group, complimentary gym membership, a refrigerator and pantry filled with healthy and nutritious ingredients and home-cooked meals each night of the week.

We believe lifestyle wellness is also built by completing smaller tasks such as making one's own bed first thing in the morning, completing daily chores, and developing healthy sleep and eating routines that include cooking periodically for the group. Having a regular schedule throughout the day builds time

management and accountability skills as guests are responsible for completing house duties, attending all groups, individual appointments, and group activities on time to advance in the Phase System
