Seasons in Malibu

If you're aware of the metaphor "Elephant in the room,"
there is always one present for individuals who deal
with addiction or mental health issues. For them,
Denial is that big elephant that keeps them lost,
overwhelmed, and isolated. While some may respond to it
by pretending that it doesn't exist, others may get defensive
over being poked about it. Either way, accepting that—you
suffer from addiction or mental illness, and that you may
need help and support—is overwhelming or the hardest
thing to do. You may feel overloaded, emotionally, and out
of control over your life.
Consumer Affairs' five-star rated emotional resort; Seasons
in Malibu is on a mission to pave the way for providing
comprehensive client care at the highest level. It has a
unique approach that goes beyond one's imagination and
shows us that care has no set boundaries. Highly recognized
for Innovative and Cutting-Edge Holistic Treatment
Modalities and expert-led treatment for mental health
conditions and addiction, the company is located on a bluff
in Malibu, CA—just outside of Los Angeles, allowing the
clients to enjoy the natural view of the ocean and seek help
in their recovery journey.
Understanding that rehabilitation requires a clinical
approach to its client's service, the company's three core
values: Clinical Sophistication, Customer Service and
Luxury, have been a success factor in clients' satisfaction
toward care and recovery. In addition, its certified team of
experts are available to not only provide one-on-one or
group therapy sessions for treating the clients, but also to
welcome, encourage, and uplift them to—develop new
healthy lifestyles, rediscover old hobbies, or try new
activities that were once neglected due to addiction or poor
mental health. Holistic activities like Yoga, Beach Walks,
Swimming, Meditation, Nutrition Therapy, Art Therapy,
and Massage that support the objective of utmost care, are
only a few to name.
Don Varden, the CEO, is committed to making the clinical
mission of rehabilitation possible, by teaming up with
experts and helping the clients achieve success in recovery
once they have left the doors of the company. It is under his
leadership that the company has been recognized with
Newsweek Excellence in Dependency Treatment in 2019
and Forbes Top 5 Rehab Centers for Executives in 2020.
Let's dive in to learn about operations that make Seasons in
Malibu a perfect combination of comfort and recovery, both
in one place.
Source of Inspiration
Unlike having a personal mission, the company's source of
inspiration came out of an opportunity to venture into a
section of healthcare that appeared interesting to Don. Over
time, as he started to observe the extraordinary change
happening to his clients, he became even more motivated.
The satisfaction of watching an individual go from the
state of distress they were experiencing upon admission,
to a state of hope upon exit, fueled the journey and
inspiration of watching more miracles happen every
day.
Don came into Seasons Recovery Centers in 2008.
Originally, his history of expertise was in global
business. Seasons was a good fit because it
allowed him to bring some of his business
acumens to the clinical mission. Teaming with
the brilliant Doctors here has provided a
collective path filled with structural efficiency
and expert clinical care. The journey through
this has been a progression of success as he
learned more about how to succeed and where
value is placed when it comes to competent
care.
The company follows
a 360 view of client care.
From the time of admission,
clients are integrated into a
co-created treatment plan.
Setting the client up for success
is determined upon the ability to
reasonably meet client goals,
ensuring the participation of the
support system, and providing
clear directions towards
success.
5 Most Trusted Rehabilitation Centers to Know in 2023

I had an amazing experience at Seasons
in Malibu. From the moment I arrived,
everyone was welcoming and accommodating.
I felt completely cared for and was treated
with the utmost respect and kindness.
The staff's knowledge and ability to connect
individually with each client are beyond
comparison. My treatment program encompassed
a unique balance of healing and growth mentally,
physically and spiritually. The program at Seasons
coupled with hard work gave me the tools
to be successful and solidified my desire
to be healthy and well.
Ellen
Seasons is truly a one-of-a-kind place.
I arrived at a shell of myself, full of
self-hatred and despair. Everybody at
Seasons greeted me with kindness,
respect, and love. Through the highest
quality therapy, introduction to
different modalities, and compassion,
Seasons gave me a new, authentic
life. I will forever be grateful for my
time at Seasons.
Camille
Every single person is warm, so helpful, so
genuine, so accommodating, and completely
without judgement. And the team of therapists-
my goodness. Absolute professionals and so
kind, so skilled. They have assembled a dynamite
team of caring and talented people. They treat
people as individuals with a holistic approach.
They focus on much more than the surface-level
addiction or mental health diagnosis you present
with. This is so important for lasting recovery.
Bonus—the environment is beautiful and the
food is fantastic. Highly recommended!
Meredith
The time I spent at Seasons in Malibu
profoundly changed my life. The analysis and
therapy I received from several different
perspectives helped me to build an effective
and lasting understanding of myself and the
reasons I have been drawn to substances. I
really can't conceive of a more effective
program. Also, the facility is beautiful, the food
is amazing, the location is almost dreamlike and
the staff is excellent.
My stay at Seasons in Malibu
was amazing!! To say that they are the
standard is the absolute truth. Everything from the
facility and its amenities to all the support staff at all levels.
The real pinnacle is the Therapists. They are world-class.
The growth I achieved there was amazing!! The amount of
concern exhibited by everyone was down with heartfelt
compassion and concern. It was a life-changing experience
that I will have with me for the rest of my life. P.S.
Professional Chefs prepare nutritious and gourmet meals. Go
for the therapy and stay for the food!

Comprehensive Client Care
The company follows a 360 view of client care. From
the time of admission, clients are integrated into a
co-created treatment plan. Setting the client up for
success is determined by the ability to reasonably
meet client goals, ensuring the participation of the
support system, and providing clear directions
towards success. The team of experts think
about all individual aspects of the client's needs
and how they can align in a meaningful way.
This is not a one size fits all approach. The
company appreciates working with a
population that is highly motivated and
invested in their success as much as the team
is invested in their growth.
Wrapping Up
Running such a high-quality program requires
several resources and factors that are to be
considered, like the models of behavioral
healthcare, the team's level of expertise, the
environment in which care is provided, the
brand and its sophistication overall. Often, the
hard work pays off when the client's level of
satisfaction is observed as they feel like they are
coming in to have a special type of care.
Reflecting on the business' service quality, the
company may take its own pace until it feels that the
time has come to replicate its existence and expand its
care measures within the rehabilitation industry.
Understanding the
rehabilitation requires a clinical
approach to its client's service,
the company's three core
values: Clinical Sophistication,
Customer Service and Luxury,
has been a success factor in
client's satisfaction toward care
and recovery.

ehabilitation centers play a crucial role by
Rproviding essential support, empowerment, and
inclusivity for individuals going through the
challenges of rehabilitation. They act as key components,
weaving together these elements to help people during their
recovery journey.
This article explores rehabilitation centers’pivotal role in
constructing stronger societies by examining their diverse
contributions, addressing their challenges, and highlighting
the transformative impact they bring to communities.
Empowering Individuals with Disabilities
Rehabilitation centers play a crucial role in empowering
individuals with disabilities facilitating their integration into
the broader community. Whether it’s physical therapy for
mobility challenges, speech therapy for communication
disorders, or occupational therapy for skills development,
these centers serve as catalysts for enhancing the
capabilities of individuals. By addressing each person’s
unique needs, rehabilitation becomes a personalized
journey towards greater independence and societal
engagement.
Facilitating Social Inclusion
One of the primary goals of rehabilitation centers is to
foster social inclusion. Through a combination of
therapeutic interventions and community outreach
programs, individuals with disabilities are provided with
opportunities to participate in social activities, educational
programs, and employment initiatives. This enhances their
sense of belonging and challenges societal perceptions,
promoting a more inclusive and diverse community.
Tailored Rehabilitation Programs
Rehabilitation centers are adept at designing tailored
programs that cater to a spectrum of needs. Whether it’s

neurological rehabilitation for individuals recovering from
strokes, cardiac rehabilitation for heart patients, or
vocational rehabilitation for those seeking to re-enter the
workforce, these programs are finely tuned to address the
unique challenges presented by different conditions. The
individualized approach ensures that rehabilitation is not a
one-size-fits-all concept but a nuanced process considering
each person’s specific needs and aspirations.
Creating Supportive Networks
Community integration thrives on supportive networks, and
rehabilitation centers actively contribute to the creation of
such networks. Support groups, peer mentoring programs,
and family involvement initiatives are integral components
of rehabilitation strategies. These networks serve as pillars
of strength, fostering emotional resilience and mutual
support among individuals undergoing rehabilitation and
their families. By building these networks, rehabilitation
centers extend their impact beyond the clinical setting,
creating a fabric of interconnected support within the
broader community.
Addressing Mental Health Challenges
Rehabilitation encompasses not only physical well-being
but also mental health. Many individuals undergoing
rehabilitation face psychological challenges, ranging from
anxiety and depression to coping with the emotional impact
of their conditions. Rehabilitation centers incorporate
mental health services into their programs, offering
counseling, psychotherapy, and support services to address
the holistic well-being of individuals. By recognizing and
addressing mental health challenges, these centers
contribute to building resilient individuals who can actively
participate in community life.
Challenges in Community Integration
While the impact of rehabilitation centers on community
integration is substantial, challenges persist. Stigma and
misconceptions surrounding disabilities can hinder the
acceptance and inclusion of individuals undergoing
rehabilitation. Additionally, limited accessibility to
rehabilitation services, both geographically and financially,
poses barriers to widespread community integration efforts.
Taking action from healthcare providers, policymakers, and
society at large requires a concerted effort.
Promoting Accessibility and Advocacy
A critical aspect of community integration is ensuring
accessibility for all. Rehabilitation centers are crucial in
advocating for the rights of individuals with disabilities,
advocating for architectural enhancements, inclusive
policies, and adaptive technologies that facilitate
accessibility. By championing these causes, rehabilitation
centers contribute to reshaping societal norms and
promoting an environment where everyone, regardless of
ability, can actively participate in community life.
Educational Initiatives
Education is a powerful tool for dismantling barriers and
fostering understanding. Rehabilitation centers engage in
educational initiatives that aim to raise understanding about
different types of disabilities, the challenges faced by
individuals undergoing rehabilitation, and the importance of
inclusivity. By imparting knowledge and dispelling myths,
these initiatives contribute to creating a more informed and
empathetic society.
Measuring Success
The success of rehabilitation centers in fostering
community integration can be measured by the level of
independence and participation achieved by individuals
undergoing rehabilitation. Metrics such as employment
rates, educational achievements, and social engagement
serve as indicators of the effectiveness of rehabilitation
programs. Additionally, the shift in societal attitudes
towards inclusivity and the breaking down of stereotypes
are key markers of success in building stronger, more
integrated communities.
Conclusion
In the vast landscape of societal development, rehabilitation
centers stand out as crucial contributors to the formation of
more robust and interconnected communities. By
implementing tailored programs, engaging in advocacy
endeavors, and fostering supportive networks, these centers
not only enable individuals with disabilities but also
challenge established societal norms. They cultivate a
culture of inclusivity and acceptance. Navigating the
intricacies of community integration requires us to
acknowledge and appreciate the transformative influence
that rehabilitation centers exert on the fabric of our
societies.
Through their dedication and innovative approaches, these
centres plant the seeds for a future where everyone,
irrespective of ability, can thrive and actively enrich the
diverse tapestry of community life.

ounded by Christina Varela Mayer and her
Fhusband, Blue Heron Recovery is a ray of hope
for those navigating early recovery from addiction.
Recognizing the challenges of transitioning from inpatient
care to outpatient programs, Christina, in her capacity as the
CEO, was determined to bridge this gap. Drawing
inspiration from the serene setting of residential treatment,
she envisioned an outpatient environment that mirrored its
magic, but closer to home.
Their vision materialized on an expansive 18-acre wooded
property in San Antonio, Texas. Here, clients find solace
amidst nature's embrace, fostering a sense of community
and support. With a focus on evidence-based therapies led
by experienced providers, Blue Heron offers a
comprehensive range of services, including partial
hospitalization, intensive outpatient programs, and
outpatient therapy.
Christina's expertise in various therapeutic modalities
ensures clients receive tailored, effective care. The center's
unique approach combines the best of both worlds - the
tranquility of residential settings and the comfort of home.
With dedicated medical and psychiatric support on-site,
Blue Heron Recovery stands as a testament to their
relentless commitment to empowering individuals on their
journey to sobriety.
Insights Care recently had an insightful conversation with
Christina, delving into her professional journey in recovery
and exploring how her dedicated team at Blue Heron is
making profound positive changes in people's lives.
Highlighted below are key excerpts from the interview:
Please introduce yourself and share a few significant
details about your professional journey in the
rehabilitation industry.
Professionally, I must say that this is the most inspiring
group of clients with whom I have ever had the pleasure to
work. The beginning of my engagement with mental health
was focused on trauma and violence. Having had some
opportunity to work with gang members, abused children,
military service members and families, it seemed the
underlying issues with which we all grapple are shared:
anxiety, depression, attachment, stress, shame, loss, and
guilt to name a few. I came to the alcohol and drug
addiction community by chance when I accepted a part time
position as a group therapist at an inpatient residential
treatment facility nearly 20 miles away from my home.
There, I grew to love the world of recovery and the people
who fight relentlessly to overcome addiction. I was inspired
by my clients and quickly gained a great deal of respect and
admiration for those who are willing to engage in treatment.
Additionally, the inpatient aspect of treatment seemed to be
key. The environment was not only safe, but incredibly
therapeutic. The land, the trees, the sky, the natural
elements were so soothing and comforting, removed from
the hassles of clients' everyday lives. There, the inpatient
residential clients became substance free and after a month
or so were ready to take back their lives. Or so it seemed.

professional outpatient treatment program, flexible to fit
your life, with the highest quality resources within a serene,
tranquil setting.
As one of the most trusted rehabilitation centers, what
unique services are offered at Blue Heron Recovery?
We provide services that are not found at other outpatient
centers, such as our strong commitment to medical and
psychiatric services with our dedicated physician and
psychiatric practitioners on-site, our commitment to
evidence-based therapeutic services, and our open-door
policy for past and current clients. We are continuously
updating the curriculum to remain current and offer the
most effective addiction medicine treatment modalities.
Another unique opportunity is that our Blue Heron clients,
current and graduated, are always welcome to return for a
visit. We encourage everyone to stop in for coffee,
experiential groups, a game of pool, or to just sit out on the
expansive deck and relax by the creek. Our home is your
home. Always.
How does Blue Heron Recovery ensure a personalized
and effective rehabilitation experience for each
individual?
The phrase “body, mind, and spirit” is ubiquitous in our
industry. How do we attend to each of these concepts in
ways other than curriculum? At Blue Heron Recovery,
these words hold meaning and concrete descriptions that
align with specific treatment plans in three different
professional arenas: Body is Medical, Mind is Psychiatric,
and Spirit is therapeutic. Our method of attending each
facet differentiates us from the expected, and at no
additional cost to our clients.
Body: our Board-Certified Medical Director leads a medical
class each week and is physically present to engage with all
the clients. Mind: our certified Psychiatric Practitioner is
available each week and has individual scheduled
appointments with our clients. Spirit: our licensed
counsellors lead groups and offer individual therapy
sessions each week. All services are included in the
treatment at no additional cost and allow for detailed
personalization. This is our approach to “Body, Mind, and
Spirit,” more than just words on a page.
Could you share some insights into the range of
programs and treatments offered at Blue Heron
Recovery to address various types of addiction?
Addictive behaviors are complex and often found with co-
occurring disorders. Our program specifically addresses
depression, anxiety, trauma, attachment, stress, and other
ingredients associated with compulsive thoughts and
behaviors. Our staff is well trained in Cognitive Behavior
Therapy, Brief Solution Focused Therapy, Dialectical
Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing Techniques
and more.
How does Blue Heron Recovery incorporate innovative
approaches to enhance its rehabilitation programs?
Our goal at Blue Heron Recovery is to make sure that not
only are you getting the treatment you need, but also
gaining insight to how the treatment process works and
why. This way, you're not tethered to a therapist for the rest
of your life. You are learning the processes and able to
develop them on your own for a lifetime.
Our approach is deliberate: We have a day dedicated to each
therapeutic modality. On Mondays, for example, we focus
on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Our first one-hour
segment is a CBT experiential group led by a practitioner in
the yoga studio. The second one-hour segment is a CBT
education class led by a second instructor in a window-
lined classroom overlooking the creek. The third one-hour
segment is taught by a third therapist just across the
courtyard in a quiet sanctuary space where clients are
engaged in CBT focused deep process therapy. In three
hours, you will have attended three separate groups in three
separate spaces with three separate instructors.
22

How do you see the future of Blue Heron Recovery in
2023 and beyond?
We believe it is possible to normalize sobriety. We believe
you should be able to enjoy a party without feeling like the
“odd one out” who isn't holding a cocktail. We believe we
can show our kids that we don't need alcohol and
substances to have a good time. We believe these things
because we're doing them.
In 2023 and beyond, we want to grow this environment that
normalizes sobriety and is attuned to the needs of families.
For individuals and families who are in our program and
those who graduate from our program, these hallowed
grounds become home. At Blue Heron Recovery, you and
your family are welcome to come back and enjoy all the fun
and excitement our community has to oﬀer.
What would be your advice to young enthusiasts who
want to contribute to the rehabilitation industry?
Ask questions. Volunteer to share your own skills: art,
music, cooking. A well-rounded treatment center will oﬀer
experiential classes to encourage activity and interests for
the clients. As a volunteer, you can watch how the day
progresses, how crises are managed, how counsellors
engage in genuine client-centered approaches as they attend
to their caseload.
Recovery is a dynamic process that can be both challenging
and rewarding in a single day. If you become involved in
the world of treatment, in the pursuit of supporting others,
you must remember to take time for your own
self-care too!

In the realm of healthcare, the role of rehabilitation in
restoring independence and empowering lives cannot
be overstated. Rehabilitation is a dynamic and
comprehensive approach to helping individuals recover
from illnesses, injuries, or disabilities, enabling them to
regain functionality and lead fulﬁlling lives.
This article examines the critical role that rehabilitation
plays in restoring independence, exploring its multifaceted
aspects, its impact on individuals, and the broader
implications for society.
Understanding Rehabilitation
Rehabilitation is a holistic process that encompasses a range
of medical, therapeutic, and support services aimed at
restoring an individual’s physical, cognitive, and emotional
well-being. Whether someone is recovering from a stroke, a
traumatic injury, or managing a chronic condition,
rehabilitation plays a fundamental role in enhancing their
overall quality of life.
Restoring Physical Independence
Physical rehabilitation is at the core of restoring
independence for many individuals. This aspect involves

Independence
targeted exercises, physical therapy, and adaptive strategies
to help individuals regain strength, mobility, and
coordination. Whether it’s learning to walk again after a
spinal cord injury or rebuilding muscle strength post-
surgery, physical rehabilitation is instrumental in enabling
individuals to perform daily activities independently.
Cognitive Rehabilitation
In addition to physical aspects, cognitive rehabilitation is
equally important in restoring independence. This facet
focuses on improving cognitive functions such as memory,
attention, and problem-solving. It is particularly valuable
for individuals recovering from traumatic brain injuries,
strokes, or neurological conditions. Cognitive rehabilitation
equips individuals with the tools to enhance their decision-
making abilities and engage more actively in their daily
lives.
Emotional and Psychological Well-being
Rehabilitation extends beyond the physical and cognitive
realms, addressing emotional and psychological well-being.
Coping with a disability or recovering from a life-altering
event can take a toll on an individual’s mental health.
Rehabilitation services often include counseling,

Empowering Lives

November 2023

psychotherapy, and support groups to help individuals
navigate emotional challenges, fostering resilience and
supporting a positive outlook on life.
Assistive Technologies
Advancements in technology play a considerable role in
rehabilitation, offering a plethora of assistive devices that
enhance independence. From mobility aids like wheelchairs
and walkers to innovative technologies such as robotic
exoskeletons, these tools enable individuals to overcome
physical limitations and become more active in their
communities.
Rehabilitation at Home
The concept of rehabilitation has evolved to embrace home-
based care, allowing individuals to receive necessary
services in the comfort of their homes. Home rehabilitation
programs are tailored to the specific needs of the individual,
promoting a more personalized and patient-centric
approach. This not only enhances convenience but also
reinforces the idea that independence can be restored within
familiar surroundings.
Empowering Lives
At its core, rehabilitation is about empowerment. It is about
providing individuals with the tools, knowledge, and
support they need to take control of their lives. Whether it’s
regaining the ability to perform daily tasks, returning to
work, or actively participating in social and recreational
activities, rehabilitation empowers individuals to lead
fulfilling lives, whatever the challenges they may face.
The Role of Caregivers
In the journey of rehabilitation, caregivers play a crucial
role. The support and encouragement provided by family
members, friends, and healthcare professionals are
invaluable in the rehabilitation process. Caregivers often act
as pillars of strength, offering emotional support and
assisting with practical aspects of daily living, further
facilitating the restoration of independence.
Challenges in the Rehabilitation Process
While the benefits of rehabilitation are significant,
challenges exist that can impede progress. Limited access to
rehabilitation services, financial constraints, and societal
stigmas around disability are some of the hurdles
- Pearl Shaw
individuals may face. Addressing these challenges requires
a determined effort from healthcare providers,
policymakers, and the community to ensure equitable
access to rehabilitation resources.
The Broader Impact on Societ
The impact of rehabilitation extends beyond the individual
to have broader implications for society. A society that
prioritizes and invests in rehabilitation services is one that
acknowledges the inherent value and potential of every
individual, regardless of their health condition. By restoring
independence, rehabilitation contributes to the creation of
more inclusive communities where diversity is celebrated
and everyone has the opportunity to contribute
meaningfully.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the role of rehabilitation in restoring
independence and empowering lives is a cornerstone of
healthcare. Whether it’s through physical therapy, cognitive
interventions, or the embrace of assistive technologies,
rehabilitation is a dynamic force that enables individuals to
overcome challenges and reclaim their independence. As
we navigate the complexities of healthcare, it is important
to recognize and prioritize the importance of rehabilitation
in fostering resilience, promoting inclusivity, and building a
society where every individual can lead a life of purpose
and fulfillment.

Savoid it. Neither can we run away nor hide from it.

Based on such care philosophy, Core Recovery is an

In an interview with Insights Care, we sat with Heather to
know more about Core Recovery's services to help you
attain your best self.
Following are the excerpts from the interview.
Please brief our audience about the center. Kindly tell us
the source of inspiration for venturing into the
Rehabilitation niche.
Core Recovery provides integrated behavioral health
services that meet the needs of the patients we serve. Our
staff of professionals provides evidenced based care that
increases treatment outcomes in an outpatient setting. All
Core staff is inspired to serve the mental health community,
reduce the suffering so many individuals struggle with
daily, and support them in a compassionate recovery
environment.
Kindly brief us about yourself and shed some light on
your journey at the center.
My name is Heather Peltier and I have been helping
organizations reach their true potential for over 30 years. I
have a bachelor's degree in communications from the
University of Arizona and a master's degree in
organizational management from the University of Phoenix.
I strive to understand the interdisciplinary approach to
management and directorship. My journey to becoming the
Chief Executive Officer at Core Recovery is the
culmination of a wide range of experience in various
industries.
However, at Core Recovery, I can live out my true passion
by serving the community and helping people overcome
obstacles that prevent them from living full and happy lives.
I adhere to a servant leadership style that helps me to assist
the team in all aspects of company operations, from clinical
to administrative. My leadership style allows me to quickly
assess situations and leverage the team to create a safe and
welcoming environment along with top-quality patient care.
Like so many of us Arizonans, I moved from the midwest in
1990. I love to entertain my family and friends and spend
time with my husband of 20 years, my two teenage
daughters, and of course, my Shih- Poo.
Can you elaborate upon the core values on which the
organization is built and its mission?
Fulfilling a critical need with unparalleled recovery care
and unmatched mental health expertise. As mental health
and recovery specialists, we understand how critical it is to
get the help you need for a mental health disorder or
addiction. No matter what you're faced with, we have one
goal in mind—we are here to help you feel your best again.

treatment to reach long-term sobriety, look no further than

Kindly elaborate upon the organization's services. And
how is it currently positioned as the most reliable name
in organizations providing complete continuum
rehabilitation solutions to patients in need?
Core Recovery provides integrated mental health services
by compassionate professionals who collaborate in using
evidence-based treatment services to meet the needs of our
patients. Our team of professionals provides intake
assessment, treatment planning, case management,
medication management, and group, individual, and family
counseling. They work together to provide the highest
quality of patient care.
Can you elaborate on Patient Care Support led by the
organization's team of experts?
Our integrated care model brings together a team of
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioners, Counsellors, Case
Managers, and Behavioral Health Technicians to create a
personalized and comprehensive treatment plan for each
patient. For patients in need of medication management,
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioners work to identify the
underlying diagnosis and create a medication management
plan to meet the unique psychiatric needs of each patient.
Our counselors work alongside psychiatric
nurse practitioners and integrate counseling
services that provide evidenced-based
therapies using group, individual, and
family counseling to increase patient
treatment outcomes. Case managers and
behavioral health technicians provide an
extra level of support for patients in need of
daily care to ensure the highest quality of
services are delivered.
What is your opinion on the
rehabilitation organizations aligning
their offerings with newer technological
developments, especially when it comes
to catering to the dynamic needs of the
healthcare space?
Core Recovery utilizes technology to
provide current training and certifications
for all staff. In addition, our Electronic Health Records
system supports professional collaboration, and effective
communication and ensures patient confidentiality is
protected securely.
Being an industry expert, would you like to advise the
budding entrepreneurs and enthusiasts aspiring to
venture into the rehabilitation space that you are
catering to?
The behavioral health industry needs servant leaders that
are passionate about meeting the needs of the communities
they serve. Although the behavioral health industry has its
challenges there is nothing more rewarding than helping
individuals heal.
How do you envision scaling your organization's
services and operations in 2023 and beyond?
We have opened a second location in Surprise (12691 W
Smokey Dr. Ste. 127) where we will be able to serve more
people in need of mental health, addiction, and trauma
services. We would like to continue to grow throughout the
valley to serve mental health populations.
