Hundreds of positive reviews
Drug & Alcohol Detox Surrounded by Peace & Support
At our core, we believe that addiction is a chronic condition. One of the things that sets Cove Detox Center apart from almost every other provider is that we refuse to just manage symptoms; we work to uncover what got you here and how you can avoid going back. Doing this is difficult…. Real work often is; But because we take such extreme ownership over the outcomes we help create, symptom management alone is not an option. Think of addiction like a giant boulder blocking the entryway to a life beyond your wildest imagination!
As a provider, it is our job to help you realize three very important things:
- Life beyond the boulder is amazing and worth the challenge it takes to move it.
- Sobriety is completely attainable.
- You are 100% worthy of it.
Once you believe those three things, then we can start moving the boulder together. Getting it to budge is impossible on your own. It takes a team of people around you who want you to have that life as badly as you do. Mix that with an ounce of willingness and a vapor of courage on your part, and together we move what feels like an immovable object.
