Our
Programs
Our dream was to
create the ideal treatment center. Our vision required
that the structure itself be beautiful, unique,
and natural blending harmoniously with its surroundings.
Most of all, it had to have the ambiance of a healing
community, a sanctuary possessing a certain quality.
After years of searching, we discovered this hidden
gem, high upon a ridge, looking out amidst thousands
of acres of state woodlands and the scenic Meremec
River. We knew our search had ended and our dream would be a reality.

Residential Program Schedule
Step
Down (Partial Hospitalization):
Our Step Down program is usually a transition from residential care. The programming focus is less on stabilization and more toward life skills to reinforce learned coping skill and healthy eating habits to facilitate long term recovery. There is greater autonomy in order to try out and practice utilizing the newly learned skills. Please see the attached group schedule for more information.
Step Down Program Schedule
Day

Our day treatment program is for clients living in or around the St. Louis community who can commute to treatment when an overnight stay is not a necessary component of treatment.
