Addiction Recovery Services for Individuals and Families
Utilizing the SMART Program (Self-Management And Family Training), our licensed addiction counselor offers essential addiction counseling services. These services encompass drug and alcohol assessments, referrals to residential treatment, DUI evaluations, and educational classes, along with individual counseling and group sessions that focus on the CRAFT method to strengthen family support services. Our peer mentoring program further extends our reach to clients across the nine far northwest Kansas counties. If transportation poses a barrier for you and you live in Cheyenne, Rawlins, Decatur, Sherman, Thomas, Sheridan, Wallace, Logan, or Gove counties, we can arrange to come to you for these vital services. We recognize that financial resources may be limited, which is why we provide these services at no cost to you out-of-pocket. Additionally, if you require in-patient residential treatment, we can facilitate referrals to appropriate residential treatment facilities.
Our Peer Mentoring Program incorporates the evidence-based SMART program, offering essential addiction counseling services delivered by our staff who have personally faced and overcome addiction. They are now thriving in long-term recovery. If you are currently living with addiction, our mentors truly understand your struggles as they have been in your shoes and have worked diligently to get clean and sober to reclaim their lives. They have endured the devastation of substance abuse, including incarceration, losing custody of children, jobs, homes, and witnessing family relationships unravel. However, they reached a turning point when they decided enough was enough and committed to sobriety to rediscover health, happiness, and success. Our mentors will engage with you one-on-one to help you achieve the goals outlined in your individual treatment plan, collaboratively developed with you and your counselor. They will assist you in finding family support services, community support services, housing, and employment opportunities. Additionally, they can accompany you to court, medical appointments, and child custody meetings with the foster care agency and DCF. They also facilitate SMART support groups and host public sober socials for added enjoyment. Their invaluable emotional support, combined with accountability for your goals, is key to your success. They are excited to support you throughout your journey, whether you are facing active addiction, transitioning to sobriety, or establishing long-term recovery. Best of all, these services come at no cost to you! Our Certified Peer Mentors are dually certified in addiction counseling and the CRAFT method, providing support to individuals facing substance use disorders and those dealing with mental health challenges such as depression, anxiety, grief management, and PTSD. We will focus on your individual treatment plan to help you reclaim a fulfilling life and restore your positive outlook for the future. Unlike traditional settings where you might see your mental health counselor monthly, we offer weekly meetings to ensure you never feel alone in your struggles. Our Peer Mentors have navigated their own mental health issues, providing them with a unique perspective to help you manage stressors and triggers effectively. Ultimately, our long-term goal is to restore your health and happiness, enabling you to thrive and enjoy the highest quality of life possible.
In the world of addiction, we understand that families can be just as affected as the actual addict. That's why we've incorporated the cutting-edge CRAFT method (Community Reinforcement And Family Training) into our recovery program for families, which offers a remarkable success rate of 70% for guiding your loved one into treatment. Our pattern-changing classes teach effective addiction counseling techniques, helping you set clear and safe boundaries with your addicted loved ones while stopping enabling behaviors. You'll also learn how to rebuild healthy familial relationships by engaging with your loved one in a new, empathetic, and supportive way—distinct from what you may be used to, and not enabling. We know how difficult it can be to watch your loved one's life spiral out of control; moments like attending court sessions or nearly losing custody of their children can lead to feelings of guilt, anxiety, and depression. To support you, we also offer family support services, including accompaniment to court and child custody meetings. We recognize how isolating it can feel to face public scrutiny and to deal with your own feelings of shame or self-guilt when a family member suffers from a substance use disorder. Our family support services provide emotional backing during your healing journey. Furthermore, we host public support groups while ensuring confidentiality, offering much-needed emotional support for families. Our offerings also include a peer mentoring program and a SMART program to further assist you—all services are provided free of charge!
Spiritual Chapel
Indoor Meditation Garden Room
We understand how heartbreaking, chaotic, or nerve-racking it can be when a loved one is in active addiction. Each late-night phone call from that familiar number can send your heart racing, knowing it might bring troubling news. Even worse is the silence that stretches over days, leading your mind to dwell in dark, scary places. Watching your loved one face challenges like job loss, eviction, or the devastating possibility of losing their children to foster care—or facing arrest again—can leave you in constant suspense. In such times, leaning on our faith may be the only source of peace and hope. Our small chapel offers a serene space where you can engage in addiction counseling, light a candle, listen to gentle spiritual music, read Bible verses, or pray. We recognize that navigating the world of addiction can feel isolating, which is why our family support services are crucial in providing assistance. If you’d like, an advocate from our peer mentoring program can quietly sit with you in our chapel and even pray alongside you. This sanctuary is where you can renew your faith that things can improve or express gratitude to the Lord for opening the doors of recovery to your loved one through effective programs like the SMART program and the CRAFT method.

Sometimes, just having a quiet place you can escape to for a few minutes to drown out the chaotic and restless world is just what you need. We realize not everyone is 'religious,' but many of us still consider ourselves spiritual and believe in a higher power nonetheless. Maybe you're someone who might find serenity in activities such as listening to soft music, creative writing, yoga, adult coloring, journaling, or reading. Our indoor meditation garden room might be the perfect setting for you to leave your worries at the door and relax, taking a moment to fade out the world and enjoy that cleansing breath and exhale...really exhale. Some may prefer solitude, reflecting on their thoughts amidst the beautiful foliage and the gentle sound of water splashing in the fountain. Others might appreciate having support through our family support services, where you can talk about feelings of fear, anger, frustration, or resentment, or even share memories of happier times. Whether you are seeking addiction counseling or exploring the CRAFT method, we are here to support you in any way we can. Our peer mentoring program and SMART program are also available for those looking to find community and guidance. No matter what your preferences are, we are dedicated to providing the assistance you need.

In addition to the addiction counseling services we provide to individuals living with addiction and their families, we also extend our support to communities in northwest Kansas. We offer educational and prevention presentations to schools, clubs, churches, and other organizations about the dangers of substance abuse, covering crucial topics such as Marijuana, Vaping, Fentanyl, and Alcohol. Our presentations can be tailored to meet your organization's specific needs. Through our peer mentoring program, our Certified Peer Mentors share their personal experiences with addiction, illustrating how this disease impacted their lives and, more importantly, how they successfully found recovery and moved on to lead happy, healthy, and respectable lives. For families seeking support, our family support services incorporate the CRAFT method to enhance communication and engagement. Additionally, we collaborate with employers through their Employee Assistance Programs and Human Resources to accept referrals for staff members who may benefit from addiction counseling, drug or alcohol assessments, referrals to residential treatment, DUI evaluations, the SMART program, educational classes, group pattern-changing classes, individual peer mentoring, legal and/or CINC case management, and other services we provide.
