About Buddy's Ranch

Buddy’s Ranch provides comprehensive treatment for substance use, mental health, and co-occurring disorders through a range of flexible program durations and levels of care. They offer detox, residential treatment, and outpatient programs, each tailored to meet the unique needs of clients. With a smaller, home-like setting and 24/7 medical monitoring, Buddy’s Ranch creates a safe, community-oriented environment that fosters healing and long-term recovery.
Buddy’s Ranch combines evidence-based practices with holistic methods to empower clients to make positive changes in their lives. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps clients change negative thought patterns and behaviors, while dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) builds skills in mindfulness, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Buddy’s Ranch integrates 12-Step principles and support groups like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and Narcotics Anonymous (NA) for peer accountability. Clients also benefit from art therapy, meditation and deep breathing, and structured wellness activities such as exercise, yoga, and nutrition education.
Their mental health treatment outpatient programs are well-suited for clients who are dealing with a variety of mental health challenges. This includes support for depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), eating disorders, and more. Buddy’s Ranch also provides residential treatment for clients with substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders (dual diagnosis).
Buddy’s Ranch provides a welcoming and comfortable environment that feels like home. Their two residences, one for men and one for women, offer a serene and intimate place to focus on recovery. The homes have private and shared bedrooms, and only 6 beds in each house. This smaller, more personal environment fosters a sense of community and allows for more focused, individualized care. Their home-like setting includes amenities such as a kitchen, swimming pool, outdoor fireplace, and backyard.

Private for-profit organization. Primary focus: substance use treatment, detoxification.
