Meeting Clients Where They Are & Helping Them

Become Who They Were Meant To Be

Facing substance use or mental health challenges can leave one feeling overwhelmed and isolated. The desire for safety, success, and purpose are within reach, but they can be difficult to grasp alone. At Able To Change Recovery, no one walks this journey alone. We’ll walk together every step of the way with practical support and hopeful motivation. 
 
We are a family-founded organization with a client-first and community-focused philosophy, openly showing acceptance and compassion to every person we help. Everyone here should feel like they belong and like they’re part of the family. We take a deeply personal approach to working with each individual and are eager to provide the treatment, tools, and support needed for a life defined by healing and potential. 

Personalized Treatment & Empathetic Support

How We Can Help

Substance use disorder and alcohol addiction continue to present genuine heartbreak in our communities. We believe recovery is possible for everyone. No matter the challenges, our team is here to help forge a path toward healing and balance.

Recent survey data from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Administration reveals that approximately 48.7 million people had a substance use disorder, including over 29 million people with alcohol use disorder. [1] 

Primary mental health challenges also present a disheartening picture. Of all U.S. adults, more than 19% had an anxiety disorder in the last year, over 4% experienced bipolar disorder at some time in their lives, and the lifetime prevalence of PTSD was measured at 6.8%. [2][3][4]

Despite these numbers, we confidently believe that every person’s journey toward healing is worth pursuing. With primary pathways for both mental health and substance use disorders as well as co-occurring disorders, Able To Change Recovery can offer personalized care to make sure individual needs are met and that every client feels supported and understood. This is a judgment-free zone and a safe space for healing.

Able To Change Recovery

Our trauma-informed approach to care prioritizes empathy and practical assistance.

We aim for long-term recovery in every area of life. With flexible treatment programs and a high staff-to-client ratio, this is where clients come to be seen, heard, and seamlessly guided through healing. The goal of treatment is not only to help facilitate sobriety or to cultivate coping strategies for sustained recovery, although those are hallmarks of the treatment experience. The real desired outcome is to help clients establish a safe and healthy baseline for a successful life.
