Black Bear Lodge

Black Bear Lodge is a haven of solace dedicated to providing those suffering from substance use. Model representations of real patients are shown.

Our program focuses on addressing all the concerns that a patient brings to treatment; we meet people where they are, developing comprehensive, individualized plans and allowing patients to create and achieve their personal goals in recovery. We partner with each person and guide him or her through an evidence-based integrated treatment process that is designed to treat core needs in a thorough, holistic way. Therapeutic elements of our program include Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Processing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and other time-tested modalities. We also provide adventure therapy, art therapy and yoga alongside psychoeducational groups, family therapy, grief/loss sessions and nutrition and wellness sessions. Each patient will receive individual therapy time with a master’s level therapist and group therapy sessions that offer valuable peer support and processing time. Our program is structured to address a person’s physical, spiritual, mental and emotional needs, creating the foundation for lifelong recovery. Black Bear Lodge also provides sub-acute detox services, physician-directed medication management and intervention assistance. Black Bear Lodge is proud to be a member of Foundations Recovery Network.

Recovery isn’t just about breaking free from substances — it’s about rebuilding your mind, body and life. And exercise can play a HUGE role in that journey.

Whether it’s a daily walk, a gym session or stretching before bed — each moment of movement rewires the brain, replaces old patterns and strengthens your recovery one day at a time.

Adaptability isn’t just about navigating change—it’s about growing through it.

For many facing substance‑use challenges, adapting means learning new coping skills, finding healthier paths and staying open to support. Every step forward—no matter how small—is proof of strength. Keep shifting. Keep growing. You’re not alone on the journey.

Empathy costs us nothing—but it can mean everything to someone fighting a battle we can’t see.

Addiction isn’t a sign of weakness. It’s not a lack of willpower. It’s a human struggle that often begins in pain, trauma or isolation. And while we might not understand someone’s journey, we can choose to meet it with compassion instead of judgment.

At Black Bear Lodge, we believe in meeting individuals wherever they are on their recovery journey. While we are well-known for our detox and residential levels of care, we also proudly offer a Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) and Commuter Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) to accommodate the needs of our local neighbors needing aftercare options.

After detox and residential treatment, aftercare is crucial for sustaining recovery and preventing relapse.
