Since recovery is a fluid process, the building and treatment program must allow patients to move along a continuum of care as their treatment needs change.
Addiction is a disease that developed in the context of a lifestyle. Treatment will help patients not just live substance-free, but live differently!
Patients will receive the most updated evidence-based practices, medications, and technologies.

Mountaineer Recovery Center began in 2019 with a $3 million grant to create a 48 bed residential substance use treatment facility. Mountaineer Recovery Center add many staff and evidence-based programming due to the overwhelming demand for the quality services we provide.
Treatment does not occur in isolation, but in collaboration with a supportive community using:
Patients receive the most updated evidence-based practices, medications, and technologies. We partner with West Virginia University and Shepherd University along with other higher education agencies to evaluate the program’s impact.
The Women’s Center includes 12 two-bedroom apartments for moms with children to have their children up to age 4 reside with them while attending residential treatment. The addition will allow women to not have to choose between keeping their kid’s or going into treatment.
Our treatment model is based on a Continuum of Care, meaning that we adjust treatment according to the needs of the patient. Since needs change over time, so does our treatments and services. If needs go up, so do the level of services available. As needs reduce and circumstances improve, treatment can adjust to accommodate and enhance a persons improved functioning.
Our top tier staff of addiction therapists, physicians, social workers, and peer recovery support specialists can offer you an initial assessment to help develop with you a comprehensive plan for your optimum care and needs.
Our medical team provides compassionate but cutting edge evidence-based medication to help stabilize addiction cravings and urges so that you can focus your attention on developing a recovery lifestyle. We provide medication management in both residential and outpatient care.
For those who need help stabilizing their recovery but have sufficient resources of either stable work or living situation, individuals can attend our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP). This four month program provides three hours of education and group therapy, three days per week and is scheduled around clients work schedules or family responsibilities. We offer IOP in the morning, afternoon and evening.
We recognize that addiction is a disease that affects more than just the individual. Our team uses family therapy and education as well as partnering with other local agencies such as Children Protective Services, DHHR, and WV Foster Agencies to help families reconcile and recover together.
We provide 48 beds for individuals to have a safe and protected environment to recover and establish a solid plan for sustaining sobriety. Length of stay varies depending on a person’s needs, but individuals typically stay from one to two months.
