When you arrive, you become part of our community. We will identify your short and long-term needs by looking beyond the assessments and getting to know you as a human being, not as a “patient”.
Using a strengths-based approach, we’ll work with you to determine the best path forward. We consider the medical, psychological, spiritual, and social aspects that address your needs, in a way that best fits you and the skills and abilities that you bring to Summit.

Successful outcomes require the appropriate treatment length for you. It’s not about stopping substance use for 30 days. It’s about resolving the underlying issues that will lead to a lifetime of change.

Family is an essential component of lasting remission from the disease of addiction. We work with families in three phases – before, during, and after treatment. Before: we help families understand the nature of SUD and give them tools to guide their loved one toward recovery “from a safe distance”. During: We educate them on the recovery process at Summit and how to best support their family member while in our care (enabling, co-dependency, etc.) After: we support forgiveness and reunification after treatment and show them how their participation in the process is essential for lasting success.

Much of the healing you will experience at Summit comes from engagement with other members of the community. Wounded healers, peers who have been in your shoes, are the most helpful to your recovery. We encourage you to stay connected and continue to play a role in the Summit community.
