Our treatment approach is based on the disease concept. As addiction is an all-encompassing disease, we believe that recovery needs to be the same. Therefore, we address all aspects of a person’s recovery: Physical, Emotional, Behavioral, and Spiritual. We use a variety of therapeutic approaches, individualized to suit each client’s experiences and goals.
Our campus location and involvement with the recovery community, gives clients the opportunity to become connected to community-based recovery support groups. This is crucial for lasting recovery. Family involvement and support are also significant components of healthy recovery and is included in our treatment programs.

In fact, recovery from substance use is an ongoing, lifelong process. Our goal at the JNC is to help our clients develop skills and provide them with the tools to manage their addictive behaviors successfully. As our client, you’ll learn how to navigate daily life without using substances. We’ll help you as you overcome the challenges of addiction.
