About Swift River

Nestled in an idyllic 80-acre expanse of lush woodlands, Swift River provides a sanctuary for healing, offering a range of innovative treatment programs for those struggling with addiction and co-occurring mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, and PTSD. This serene campus fosters a peaceful healing environment, ideal for long-term recovery. Swift River's dedicated team of experienced nurses, therapists, and recovery coaches deliver 24/7 care, crafting personalized treatment plans that cater specifically to the unique needs of each individual. Their comprehensive offerings include medical detox to manage withdrawal symptoms safely, in-depth residential care for immersive support, and flexible virtual outpatient services for continuity of care and support recovery journeys from any location.
For individuals requiring medical detox before residential treatment, Swift River's Medication-Assisted Treatment Program provides medically assisted care using medications such as methadone, buprenorphine, and naltrexone. These medications are integrated with therapy and support services to offer a comprehensive approach to addiction recovery. The program aims to alleviate withdrawal symptoms, minimize cravings, and mitigate the risk of relapse while fostering long-term sobriety and enhancing overall well-being.
Treating co-occurring conditions is integral to the Swift Rivers program. Their treatment approach combines evidence-based therapies with experiential activities like physical fitness, art, music, and animal therapy to address the root cause of the addiction. Programs include cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy (EMDR) to address addiction and mental health concerns comprehensively.
Swift River provides a veterans-specific program called At Your Six, acknowledging military service members' distinctive challenges. This program offers personalized addiction treatment through comprehensive care, including individual therapy, group therapy, family counseling, and CBT. At Your Six aims to assist veterans in overcoming addiction, addressing underlying mental health issues, and rebuilding their lives with resilience and strength. The program's dedication to fostering camaraderie, trust, and individual healing provides support throughout clients’ journeys, empowering them to regain control over their lives and achieve genuine healing.
Their campus features amenities such as hiking trails, fishing spots, outdoor dining areas, fire pits, a ropes course, and fully equipped gyms for recreational activities. With comfortable semi-private accommodations, Swift River fosters a welcoming atmosphere conducive to healing and personal growth.
