Your Journey to Recovery While on Disability

Living with a disability presents its own unique set of challenges, and adding the struggle of addiction, mental health issues, or trauma can feel overwhelming. Navigating a leave from work due to injury or illness through Short-Term Disability (STD), Long-Term Disability (LTD), or WCB can be an incredibly stressful experience. This period, while focused on your primary health concern, also presents a critical opportunity to address underlying challenges like addiction, burnout, or trauma that may be impacting your overall well-being.
We understand the complexities of navigating support systems and are here to help you on your journey to wellness. Our programs are designed to be accessible, and we have experience supporting clients through all stages of disability. Your recovery is possible, and we are here to provide a safe, supportive, and understanding environment for you to heal.

How We Support Your Recovery

We will guide you through a comprehensive, step-by-step healing process tailored to your individual needs. Your journey begins with a safe and stable foundation. You can start with our Detox, Daytox, or Virtual Detox programs, where you will receive medically supported care to manage withdrawal symptoms comfortably.

From there, you will transition to the core of our services: the Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP). Here, you’ll engage in meaningful individual and group therapy designed to build skills and foster connection. Within our IOP, we offer focused streams to ensure your treatment is directly relevant to your experience, including a dedicated Addiction Stream, a Mental Health Stream, and a specialized First Responders Stream.

To further personalize your care, we offer Individual Therapy for one-on-one support and Psychiatric Consultations with our Addiction Psychiatrists. Our commitment extends beyond the main treatment phase with robust Aftercare Services to ensure you have ongoing support for lasting wellness.

Evidence-Based Addiction & Mental Health Care Designed for You

We offer integrated treatment for a wide range of interconnected issues. Our team has the expertise to support you no matter what you are facing.

Healing from Addiction

Our team is equipped to help you break free from the cycle of substance use. We provide evidence-based treatment for a wide range of dependencies, including alcohol, benzodiazepines, opioids, and stimulants, as well as cannabis and nicotine. We create a personalized strategy that addresses the root causes of your addiction and empowers you to build a life in recovery.

Nurturing Your Mental Health

Your mental well-being is the foundation of a healthy life. We provide expert care for many challenges, from managing the overwhelming weight of burnout, depression, and anxiety, to developing strategies for living with ADHD, OCD, Psychosis, or Bipolar Disorder. Our goal is to help you find balance, resilience, and a renewed sense of hope.

Recovering from Trauma and Compulsive Behaviours

Trauma can manifest in many ways. Our compassionate, trauma-informed approach creates a safe space to heal from experiences that have led to PTSD, Acute Stress Disorder (ASD), or Adjustment Disorder. We also understand how trauma can lead to compulsive behaviours, often called process addictions.

Our specialists can help you address and manage the complex challenges of gambling, sex and pornography addiction, internet and gaming addiction, food addiction or binge eating, and shopping addiction.

Accessible Care Across Alberta, Wherever You Are

Taking the first step is often the hardest, but we are here to make it easier. With treatment centres in Barrhead, Calgary, and Edmonton, as well as comprehensive virtual programming accessible from anywhere in the province, help is within reach. You don’t have to navigate this journey alone. Your path to a healthier, more fulfilling life starts here. Contact us today for a confidential conversation about how we can support your recovery.
