Residential ​Treatment

The Residential program provides clients with the tools necessary to reclaim their lives. Clients live on the premises for a duration of time recommended in their treatment plan. Clients learn new ways to manage the issues associated with their addiction through group, individual and family sessions.

Outpatient ​Treatment

Outpatient treatment offers many of the same benefits as residential treatment without the client living on the premises. Bristlecone’s Outpatient programs offer flexible schedules that are least disruptive to one’s life. Participation varies depending upon the client’s personal, clinical, or legal needs.

Transitional Living Program

The Transitional Living Program gives individuals the opportunity to live in a safe and sober environment while readjusting to the community post-treatment. Transitional living allows clients to learn and exercise healthy behaviors and coping mechanisms to handle everyday situations and stressors. Individuals who enter transitional living are 25% more likely to maintain a gambling-free lifestyle.

What we do.
