Yellow Wood Recovery serves adults who need help with alcohol, benzodiazepines, opioids, cocaine, methamphetamine, prescription drugs, or mental health conditions that occur alongside addiction. The center runs on an evidence-based and trauma-informed model, with holistic practices woven in. Care begins with medically supervised detox and can continue into residential programming on the same campus, so people do not have to change locations as their needs shift.
Small size is intentional here. Because no more than 6 clients are in care at once, one-on-one counseling, groups for men or women separately, and family meetings can stay personal. Yellow Wood Recovery has carried Joint Commission accreditation since its founding in 2019, and most people stay roughly 30 days. Planning for discharge and for avoiding relapse begins on day one rather than being tacked on near the end.
