Heritage Treatment Foundation

About Heritage Treatment Foundation

About an hour from Montreal, Heritage Treatment Foundation is a live-in rehabilitation center that uses a non-12-Step model. Their program combines research-backed methods, including psychotherapy, medication management, and complementary approaches, aimed at treating both substance use and the mental health factors that often accompany it. A key element of the center’s schedule is positive psychology, reflecting their belief that recovery means reshaping one’s identity into a healthier, more capable, sober version of oneself. To ensure consistent support, Heritage limits admission to 12 clients at a time, allowing staff to provide more individualized attention. Among the evidence-based services available are cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), rational emotive behavioral therapy (REBT), psychodynamic therapy, and cognitive bias modification therapy, delivered through both individual and group psychotherapy. When clinically appropriate, medication-assisted treatment may be offered. The center also provides detox on site and an aftercare program, supported by an active alumni network that meets weekly.

Set in a comfortable cottage-style environment, Heritage creates a calm, relaxing space for recovery. Client rooms are air-conditioned and include fast internet access and a television. The center also offers a range of alternative therapies such as yoga, meditation, massage, acupuncture, stress management, art therapy, tai-chi, and various rituals, among others. Healing is balanced with engaging activities including biking, hiking, kayaking, golfing, fishing, geo-trekking, zip-lining, boating, bowling, camping, gardening, community outings, photography, pottery, and additional art therapy options. Heritage also places strong emphasis on nutrition. Their nutritionist, Professor Louise Thibault, a Professor of Human Nutrition and Dietetics at McGill University in Montreal, helps design meal plans based on fresh, local, and sustainable ingredients. Meal options can be adapted for a variety of dietary needs, including diabetic, vegan, vegetarian, lactose intolerance, and allergy-friendly requirements.
