Women's Residential Recovery
Advantage's Bray Street program specializes in residential addiction treatment for women, with a notable family friendly feature that allows children age 13 and under to stay with their mothers during treatment.
The home like environment is designed to feel supportive rather than clinical, helping women focus on healing alongside their families.
Treatment addresses biological, mental, social, and spiritual needs through individual counseling, group therapy, CBT, MI, trauma informed counseling and relapse prevention.
Programming also includes education on addiction, family functioning support and recovery maintenance to build lasting recovery networks.
Comprehensive Levels of Care
Beyond residential services, Advantage offers a continuum of care including outpatient and residential detox, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient and standard outpatient treatment.
The team also supports clients with co occurring mental health disorders, trauma histories and pregnant or postpartum needs, with telehealth available.
