How We Treat

Empower Recovery Center offers Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) levels of care for substance use, with mental health IOP available for clients who need additional support alongside their recovery. Our clinical approach integrates evidence-based modalities including CBT, DBT, trauma-informed care, motivational interviewing, family therapy, psychoeducation, and experiential therapy delivered in both group and individual sessions. Our dedicated clinical team works collaboratively to build individualized treatment plans that address the whole person — not just the diagnosis.

DBT

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for managing emotions, coping with stress, and improving relationships.

Family Therapy

We involve loved ones in the healing process to strengthen communication, rebuild trust, and create a healthier support system at home.

Experiential Therapy

Experiential therapy engages clients in hands-on activities that encourage self-expression, uncover underlying emotions, and promote personal growth and healing.
