Walking the path to sobriety with you
At WellBrook Recovery, we are more than just a treatment center—we are a community of care, offering a holistic and patient-centered approach to addiction recovery. Our philosophy is rooted in understanding the complexities of substance use disorder while treating the individual as a unique and special whole. We don’t just aim for abstinence; we work with each patient to uncover the underlying causes, offering personalized care that integrates medical expertise, emotional healing, and practical life skills.
Our process begins with a comprehensive diagnosis, using thorough assessments conducted by our experienced clinical team. Our medical and clinical teams then design a unique treatment plan for the individual. Once in our care, we are fully invested in your recovery during your stay and beyond.
Prioritizing true addiction recovery
Rather than taking you on the easiest route to the goal, we take the smartest. We skillfully address the underlying cause(s) of addiction, and immediately begin helping you prepare and practice for a life of sobriety.
Comfortable addiction rehabilitation
We curate an atmosphere of support and growth. Our centers’ designs evoke a vibe of warmth and health, encouraging a positive attitude. Our clean, comfortable and roomy facilities promote relief and healing.

Questions you may have
Do you treat co-occurring mental/emotional health issues like PTSD or anxiety?
Yes, we specialize in dual-diagnosis care, addressing underlying emotional and mental health issues, such as PTSD and anxiety, which often contribute to addiction. Our focus on these root causes leads to long-term recovery success.
What types of addiction treatments and therapies do you use?
While we incorporate AA principles, Wellbrook Recovery offers a wide range of advanced therapies provided by our certified specialists, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (ITF), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and many more modalities and techniques, tailored to each individual’s needs.
Do you handle severe cases of long-term addiction?
Yes, we have extensive experience with severe addiction cases. Our personalized care and supportive environment help individuals overcome even the toughest challenges, allowing them to thrive in recovery.
Is there downtime during the day?
Yes. While we do have a full and complete daily schedule designed to foster structured and organized living, with various recovery related activities, including private therapy, group therapies, journaling, meditation, life skills sessions, case management, goal and progress review, sober outings, house chores, and post-rehab prep.
We also allot multiple pockets of time through the day and much of the evening for personal down-time. Weekends are much lighter on sessions and allow for unwinding and visitations for catching up with family and friends. The vibe in our programs is relaxed and pleasant.
Do residents get to go out of the facility?
We believe that recovery should be enjoyable and it is important that individuals in treatment are in good spirits and energized, which is why we keep positive energy flowing throughout our program. As part of that goal, we generally bring the residents off-site for outings multiple times per week with various fun and fresh activities and recreation in different venues. Additionally, we want to enable exposure to the real world with its various triggers in order to learn and practice sober fun and get a better understanding of personal trigger patterns.
Every resident gets a pass to the local YMCA for gym, sports and swimming. Other outings can include (but not limited to) axe throw, bowling, parks, beaches, hikes, restaurants, game shows, laser tag, whirly ball, movies and shopping centers.
What’s the food like at Wellbrook?
Part of substance abuse recovery is promoting healthy living. It is well known that nutrition plays an important role in mental and emotional stability and Wellbrook Recovery teaches nutritional health as part of our programs. To that end, we are careful to offer wholesome, chef made meals that align with our nutrition goals.
Our chef creates delicious, gourmet meals and regularly communicates with our residents regarding their preferences. We also accommodate various dietary restrictions and needs. Occasionally, we’ll also offer the option to order in restaurant meals (on-the-house) to spin things up and have some food fun. Between meals, we have a fully stocked snack room available at all times.
Family Visits
We allow and encourage family and friends to visit and help with connection and support, which are so essential during this challenging period. To allow for the smooth functioning of the program as well as the effectiveness of the recovery process, we have designated times for visitation and we also keep a light oversight of who is coming to our facility. Most visitations are set during the weekends, but we try hard to accommodate individual schedule needs and requests.
How soon can I get in?
While we always aim for same day admissions, this can depend on various factors including the individual’s specific case and needs, on-site intake welcome staff availability and time of day.
Our expert admissions specialists are familiar with most insurances and treatment details and can often confirm insurance coverage, conduct a treatment assessment and schedule admission hours away -all in the first phone call. With certain insurance policies and specific patient health needs we may need to consult with other specialists on our team. In these cases we will still usually contact you within an hour or two with all the answers and move quickly to the next steps.
Can I just come to the facility and walk in? What is the admission process?
In order to make sure that we are properly prepared to welcome and treat you, we don’t accept walk-ins. Our admission process is simple: We make sure your insurance covers your treatment at Wellbrook and we discuss any potential insurance related deductible costs (or you have a payment plan in place) – nobody wants any surprises later. We conduct a phone assessment to understand your specific needs in treatment.
Once that’s squared away, we immediately coordinate with the clinical intake team what times are available for your arrival and intake -usually within hours but depending on bed and staff availability. And then “way to go!” you’re on your recovery journey and have completed the most courageous step of the process!
What do I need to have ready before I call?
Nothing. But it would be best to help move things along more quickly and efficiently, to have the health insurance information handy and to know the date of birth for the individual seeking treatment. We’ll kindly help you walk through the process and guide you. We’re happy to patiently answer any and all questions (don’t hesitate, we’ve heard it all :).
How long do I need to stay in the program for?
There is no set amount of time required. Your Wellbrook Recovery therapists and case manager will work with you and your individual needs to determine your length of stay at our facility and for each level of care you go through. However, generally, if you are withdrawing and require inpatient detox, that lasts anywhere from 3 to 10 days, depending on the substances and your use and health etc. Following detox, residential level of care lasts usually between 30 and 50 days depending on your recovery progress.
At some point during residential care, the care team will evaluate -with the client’s input- that it is beneficial for recovery to begin gradually transitioning to sober life outside of the recovery cocoon of the facility. PHP is a full daytime intensive program in which the individual returns home (or to sober living) daily in the late afternoon. PHP can last from 2 to 4 weeks as needed. The final step is IOP. This program is much less intensive and is for a few hours a day a few days a week, with evening programming options available. Individuals stay with IOP for as long as they want or can, anywhere between 2 and 5 weeks.
What to tell friends and family
While most people are supportive, you can choose how much to share. If necessary, you might frame it as a “Non life threatening medical leave”, a “wellness retreat” or a “life coaching program”. But your focus should be on yourself, your family and the life-changing, long-term benefits of recovery, including ensuring that the addiction doesn’t end up spilling out in an even more embarrassing way than a rehab conversation can.

At first glance, these three products may seem closely related. But when you compare them side by side, the differences are striking. One of the biggest concerns we're seeing is that products marketed under the "kratom" umbrella can have dramatically different pharmacological effects. While many consumers believe they're purchasing a natural botanical supplement, some products on the market today are concentrated or synthetic opioid agonists with significant dependence potential. As clinicians, staying informed about these emerging substances is becoming increasingly important as they appear more frequently in treatment settings. Our latest blog takes a deeper dive into each of these compounds and why understanding the differences matters for patient education and treatment planning. For those working in addiction treatment, behavioral health, emergency medicine, or primary care: How can we do a better job of educating the public about these rapidly evolving substances? View our blog for a more in-depth comparison of these substances. #AddictionTreatment #BehavioralHealth #SubstanceUseDisorder #Kratom #RecoverySupport #MentalHealthProfessionals
People often picture discharge as the finish line. In reality, it's the beginning of learning how to navigate everyday life differently. Returning home means rebuilding routines, navigating old environments, and adjusting to family dynamics that may have shifted during treatment. It can be exciting, overwhelming, and hopeful all at once. Recovery doesn't end when treatment does. That's why aftercare, alumni support, and continued connection matter. What do you think people underestimate most about the transition home? #WellBrookRecovery #LifeAfterTreatment #RecoveryJourney #ContinuingCare #AftercareMatters #RecoverySupport #SobrietyJourney #RecoveryIsPossible
Healthy eating doesn't have to be expensive. Chef Rich's go-to budget-friendly meal? Chicken and vegetables. Simple. High in protein. Packed with nutrients. And easy enough to make any night of the week. At WellBrook, we believe nutrition is an important part of recovery. Learning to fuel your body with nourishing, realistic meals can support both physical and emotional healing—and healthy habits don't have to be complicated or cost a fortune. What's your favorite healthy meal on a budget? Share it in the comments! 👇 #HealthyEating #HealthyRecipes #BudgetMeals #MealPrep #addictionrecovery
"People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." Maya Angelou's quote came to mind when we received this thank you from ProHealth Care. It's one thing to work towards a vision of improving mental health. It's a whole other experience to work with others who are kind, genuine, passionate people, like our friends at ProHealth Care. Their message below, after a special dinner hosted by WellBrook Recovery last week, is an example of the kind of people they are. Grateful for you, Ashley Wojtecki, Katie Ball, Joe Moreno, and the whole Prohealth team.
