Addiction is a powerful force that leads individuals astray from their core values and falsely convinces them of their lack of autonomy. At Lake Ariel Recovery Center, we strive to redefine our clients’ mindsets and restore their ability to make choices. While many addiction treatment programs aim to return patients to their previous state, Sanctuary Health’s objective is to propel our clients beyond the baseline and enhance their lives by seamlessly integrating recovery treatment with daily life improvements. Through our comprehensive treatment approach, Lake Ariel Recovery Center identifies areas of discontent in our clients’ lives, often associated with addictive tendencies, and helps them improve these aspects. Addiction strips individuals of their passion and commitment to life, but our Everlasting Recovery program empowers clients to regain control over their journeys and reclaim their lives. Everlasting Recovery provides patients with the best opportunity to achieve sustainable recovery.
