Personalized treatment plans support clients through recovery and include aftercare planning and community education.

The clinic serves adult men and women, including pregnant and postpartum women, LGBTQ clients, veterans and military families, criminal justice-involved individuals and clients with co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders. CrescentCare also supports clients living with HIV/AIDS and those who have experienced trauma, sexual abuse or domestic violence.

RecoveryWorks treatment includes cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, trauma-related counseling, relapse prevention and 12-step facilitation. The program blends evidence based talk therapy with structured social support and creative, body-centered modalities to address the whole person.
Does RecoveryWorks take insurance or offer financial help?
The clinic accepts Medicare, Medicaid, private insurance, TRICARE and self-pay. They also have a sliding fee scale based on household income. I've found their staff will help individuals enroll in Medicaid, Medicare or marketplace insurance, and RecoveryWorks welcomes clients with or without insurance.
