Addiction Treatment – 12-steps, Cirque Lodge
Addiction treatment at Cirque Lodge is founded upon the 12-step approach to alcohol and drug addiction. While most individuals are only in alcohol and drug rehab for a short period of time (not long enough to work many of the steps.) The focus of treatment is to establish a solid foundation of the initial steps of the 12-step approach, and to give a solid foundation on the concepts of recovery. Most times when a person leaves drug rehab, additional help is needed. The role of 12-step meetings and support groups play an integral part in recovery at that point.
The initial steps of the 12-step approach deal with finding a connection to a power greater than one’s own. We have created a number of venues where such a connection can be made. Addiction treatment extends beyond the therapy wall and reaches out to nature to provide this connection. Cirque Lodge clients have a number of opportunities to experience the healing of the nature, as well as the power that comes from the spirit of the mountain. A connection to a higher power can make a difference in the success of recovery process and working the 12-steps. It can greatly ease many of the pains and burdens that arise throughout the recovery process.
