About Imagine Recovery

Imagine Recovery provides a loving, community environment for those struggling with addiction and mental health concerns. They have several outpatient programs to choose from including partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP), and a sober living home. In addition to treating addiction and co-occurring disorders, Imagine's innovative recovery approach can also treat anxiety, depression, and eating disorders with primary mental health treatment.
Imagine offers a 4-6 week program and 10-week intensive outpatient. PHP is Monday-Friday 10am-3pm. And IOP is Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday 10am-1pm weekly. The programs are led by licensed clinicians and limited to 10 people, ensuring a small, intimate setting. Evidence-based treatment involves dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) therapy, psychodrama, narrative therapy, life skills, and 12 Step philosophy. Mindfulness is a key component to the program and Imagine incorporates wellness practices through music, art, yoga, and nature.
The 12-week Mental Health Outpatient Program (OP) at Imagine consists of a weekly individual therapy session in addition to a 3-hour therapeutic group with a maximum of 10 participants that is facilitated by two professional therapists.
