Program Questions
Our average stay in the residential portion of our treatment program at the recovery center is 60 days. We recognize that this is dependent on many factors, namely:
- Motivation in recovery
- Readiness to change
- Insurance and financial parameters
- Sober support
We highly encourage that all residents participate in Aftercare when their residential stay is complete. Aftercare can include Day Treatment or Intensive Outpatient. If a resident has come to treatment from out of state, we can help coordinate aftercare for them that is close to where they will be living upon discharge.
Moonlight Mountain Recovery is unique in that is not a medical facility and maintains a feeling of home. We take pride in staying away from the institutional feel that comes along with so many other treatment facilities. We do our best to make sure that each resident feels comforted, welcome, and safe from the moment they walk through our doors. The purpose for this is not just to be inviting, but also to make each resident feel comfortable enough that they can open up and truly “dive in” and focus on their recovery.
We are a smaller facility accommodating a maximum of 8 residents at a time, which has many advantages. We offer lots of one-on-one time with staff. You can regularly find our clinicians mingling and talking with our residents outside of schedule therapy sessions. Sometimes it is during these less formal interactions that we are able to make the best breakthroughs.
We have a customized menu designed by a certified dietician to ensure nutritious and satisfying meals. Dietary restrictions can be accommodated.
Therapy includes the following:
- 3 Groups per day, Monday thru Friday (run by a variety of therapists, substance abuse counselors and mentors)
- Individual substance abuse counseling sessions
- Individual therapy sessions
- Family group (an open group available to family members of all residents)
- Family therapy sessions
Moonlight Mountain Recovery believes in the importance of treating the mind, body and soul. We have regular yoga classes and exercise options built into the program. We have custom-built treatment plans that include adequate sleep, exercise, and nutrition. We utilize Experiential Therapy, DBT, mindfulness, service projects, hikes and other holistic approaches as part of a comprehensive treatment program.
We like to introduce our residents to all the programs that the community offers. This includes Include AA, NA, CA, HA, Sober Softball, and Sober Volleyball soon to come!
