ABSOLUTE AWAKENINGS - ABOUT US

Our misson
We are Absolute Awakenings. It is our mission to lead people struggling with a substance use disorder to to long-term recovery. Untreated, addiction can become a chronic and fatal disease. We understand that there is no single way to attain recovery. It is our promise and our obligation to deliver a unique and highly individualized recovery experience to every client we treat.
It is our job to convey to our clients that we empathize with how they feel and that we are going to do everything in our power to help them. Evidence has shown that treating the mind, body, and spirit are vital to providing long term recovery. After being separated from the substances, we need to get down to the causes and conditions. We awaken the mind using several forms of evidence-based therapy.

Together, we will approach the mental hurdles that have stifled many of our hopes, dreams, and ambitions to recover. We will treat the body by incorporating physical exercise, yoga, meditation, and a healthy approach to diet all tailored to each client’s personal goals. We treat the soul by providing practical solutions to allow for a thriving future as well as encouraging spiritual growth.
Evidence shows that when we provide those suffering with addiction with improved family and social relationships as well as a purpose filled life, we dramatically improve the outcomes for long term recovery.
