The staff members at Rocky Mountain believe that the successful treatment of any addiction requires individualized treatment of the entire person based on a bio psychosocial model of care. This includes physical, emotional, behavioral, family, social and spiritual needs. The patients must learn about their own unique problems, within the context of addiction as a chronic, relapsing disease.

The Treatment Philosophy is centered upon recognizing addiction as a chronic, relapsing brain disorder characterized by compulsive drug and/or alcohol seeking behaviors.

When co-occurring disorders such as depression, anxiety, bipolar are present, therapy must be individualized to address the needs of the patients. All patients receive psychological testing and consultations as part of their care process.

Finally, treatment is seen the beginning of a process of recovery. The patients are given skills to interrupt their addiction and to implement a plan for recovery. Continuing care, post treatment referrals, and follow-up are an important part of the individual’s ongoing recovery.
