EXPLORE OUR SERVICES

Our Addiction Treatment Programs

At Wavecrest, we understand that addiction affects every individual differently. That’s why our team provides personalized treatment across multiple levels of care to meet your specific needs.

Medical Detox

Detoxification is the first step toward recovery for many clients. Our medical detox program ensures that you safely withdraw from drugs or alcohol under 24-hour supervision. Our clinical team monitors symptoms, manages discomfort, and provides emotional support throughout the process.

Inpatient (Residential) Treatment

For those requiring a structured, immersive environment, our residential rehab offers round-the-clock care, individual and group therapy, holistic wellness activities, and relapse-prevention education. This setting allows you to focus completely on recovery in a calm and secure environment.

Outpatient Programs (PHP & IOP)

Our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) are designed for clients who are ready to return to work, school, or family responsibilities while continuing therapy several days per week.

Dual Diagnosis Treatment

Many individuals battling addiction also face mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, or trauma. Our dual diagnosis program treats both conditions simultaneously, ensuring a comprehensive path toward healing.

Aftercare & Alumni Programs

Long-term success in recovery depends on ongoing support. Our aftercare and alumni programs provide relapse-prevention tools, support groups, and community connections to help you maintain progress and confidence.
