Admissions
    On admission to our program, each client is assessed for physical health (inpatient clients receive a physical examination) along with interviews to determine present physical and psychological health.

     Each client is assigned to a qualified professional counselor who will guide the client through an individualized treatment program.  Together, they will work toward the recognition of the problems caused by chemical dependency—physical, emotional, social, mental and spiritual. Clients go to at least two individual counseling sessions per week where their individual issues are identified and addressed.

 

Treatment
    New Life Treatment Center has a 30-day program set-up for individual needs and goals in a quiet rural setting with home-like surroundings.  The primary purpose of New Life Treatment Center is to assist each client on the road to a life of recovery from chemical dependency by gaining knowledge and understanding the facets of their dependency. The program used is based on the 12 steps of AA, with the clients completing at least steps 1-5 while in treatment.

    The treatment process confronts issues with gentle, nurturing dignity.  As people grow through recovery, a new freedom and joy—a “new life” - in living are experienced.  The shame and guilt that had been so pervasive drop away and are replaced by inner peace and a desire to give to others.  Relationships flourish.  Sharing becomes a joy.  Recovery becomes self-perpetuating and growth continues in directions unimagined.  Sobriety is experienced as much or more than abstinence.  This is the vision held out to those walking in a new-found strength in recovery at New Life Treatment Center.
