About Driftless Recovery Services Inc
The clinical programs at Driftless Recovery are designed for people dealing with drug or alcohol addiction, as well as those facing mental health challenges who need a supportive environment to confront their struggles directly. The center provides outpatient care for children, teens, and adults throughout the recovery process. Services include individual counseling for both substance use and mental health concerns. Driftless Recovery also supports court-involved clients through options such as drug and alcohol assessments and driver safety compliance planning. Along with one-on-one therapy, the center offers family therapy and a range of group sessions. Group offerings may include dual diagnosis groups, relapse prevention groups, women’s mental wellness groups, and teen groups.
The structured outpatient program lasts 10 weeks and is intended to build a strong start for early recovery. Participants work on recognizing symptoms and triggers, developing coping strategies, learning about the neuroscience of addiction, applying the 12-step model, and creating relapse prevention plans. When a client requires more intensive treatment, the staff can connect them with a trusted inpatient facility nearby. For men age 18 and older, Driftless also provides a sober living option to help sustain sobriety.
