Customized and Personalized Treatment Plan
Each person that enters treatment is unique and comes with a unique set of issues. Our Christian addiction treatment package assesses individual needs to develop a comprehensive, totally customized treatment plan. A minimum of of a 12 session commitment of individual therapeutic counseling assures that each person that walks through our door is understood, validated and treated as a unique person. These are not “vent” sessions alone – they involve a meticulously planned out plan with goals and projects designed to locate the underlying causes of the addictive behavior, and birth true freedom and peace. Both behind the scenes and with clients, our counselors pray for each need presented. Those that are ready for help feel loved, validated and understood by the intensive nature of this process.

Co-Occurring Treatment
New Life Spirit Recovery assesses people in the area of body, soul and spirit. We believe each area requires a proper assessment and needs an effective solution. Why we are different from most other approaches is that we don’t place a pharmaceutical solution onto an emotional or spiritual problem. When addressing co-occurring clients, there are oftentimes physiological imbalances and deficiencies that can mimic the symptoms of a psychiatric disorder. Our goal is to untangle the root cause of any symptoms, using medication only as a last resort. We treat emotional issue through intensive counseling, and promote spiritual freedom through prayer, Bible studies, spiritual workshops and other Christian materials. Physical problems are first diagnosed through the use of exhaustive panels of blood and urine. Then through a methodical process of elimination, treatment options are given. In some cases, clients need vitamins and other nutritional supplements; in other cases, a medication may be prescribed based test results. Our doctor uses facts, not assumptions to learn how to assist a person with the best opportunity to live a life free from addiction and any unnecessary prescribed medication.
In totality, New Life is looking to bring a person into balance emotionally, spiritual and physically, looking at rooted issues in each area, and applying the correct remedy. To learn more, click here.
