About
Promises Treatment Centers is a CARF accredited, Joint Commission accredited, dual-diagnosis addiction treatment center specializing in treating a wide variety of addictions, such as alcoholism, cocaine addiction, prescription drug abuse, and marijuana abuse.
We are proud that in surveying our clients, more than 98% say they would recommend us to a friend or family member. We believe this is the greatest testament to the compassionate care we offer at Promises recovery centers.
Promises Treatment Centers uses evidence-based treatment modalities, including medically monitored detox (including Suboxone detox for opiate addiction) individual therapy, psycho-educational groups, stress management strategies, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), equine-assisted therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and somatic therapy. We recently expanded our neurofeedback program, which we have found to be one of the most effective tools in preventing relapse.
We continually ask for feedback from our clients to measure the effectiveness of our approach, and continually set higher standards so that Promises will always lead the way in offering the most comprehensive addiction treatment programs in the country.

Therapy
In line with our commitment to personalized treatment, each Promises experience will be different for each client.

At Promises, your care is entrusted to a team of licensed, credentialed and dedicated treatment professionals, many of whom have experienced recovery in their own lives. Each team includes a primary therapist, family therapist, psychiatrist, medical doctor, nurse, and, if necessary, drug and alcohol detox specialist(s), all of whom are either Promises staff or highly qualified, licensed independent affiliates. Seeing you transform your life is the reason we do this work, and we will go above and beyond to help you succeed.
