Our team of highly skilled and licensed affiliated psychiatrists and medical doctors, psychologists, therapists, and specialists provide individual and group psychotherapy, delivering a clinically comprehensive treatment program. Many of our staff are in recovery and have experienced many of the same issues as have our clients. This allows clients to feel safe about opening up about their problems, issues, and secrets. Therapy is supported by a commitment to embrace the recovery process through education, 12-step work, and meetings.

By removing the client from their unhealthy environment and placing them in a safe, supportive environment, with an individual program of recovery, Promises Treatment Centers offer clients an opportunity to stabilize medically and psychologically. This gives clients the ability to learn about the disease of addiction, learn about themselves, understand underlying causes driving these behaviors, and gain the tools necessary for ongoing recovery.

Our independent, consulting psychiatrists and medical doctors are available to provide psychiatric and medical assessments as well as ongoing counseling, medication monitoring, and follow-up.
