Treatment and Staff

Resurgence at Lake House treats a range of conditions including substance use disorder, eating disorders, mental health conditions and process addictions like sex and gambling. The facility seeks to not only treat conditions but to heal the root causes of conditions. As such, clients benefit from individualized treatment programs that are customized to address the specific needs and goals of the person. Every resident goes through an extensive evaluation during intake that includes mental and physical health components as well as a comprehensive overview of substance use. A personalized care strategy is developed based off of these results. While the length of residential care depends entirely on the needs of the resident, clients typically stay for either 30, 60 or 90 days.

Many clients transition directly into the detox or stabilization programs. Lake House offers a medical detox process that lasts between three and seven days. Detox offers around-the-clock medical supervision and withdrawal medication to curb unpleasant withdrawal symptoms like nausea and hallucinations. The detox team also employs Suboxone, methadone and naltrexone when residents are struggling with opioids such as heroin and fentanyl.

The facility employs a number of medical and therapeutic methods including evidence-based therapies, psychoeducation, life skills training and holistic practices. Clients engage in regular individual and group therapy sessions with highly trained therapists trained in CBT, DBT, EMDR and rational emotive behavior therapy to help change illogical and negative beliefs. Therapists also utilize solution-focused therapy to focus on future goals rather than past trauma. Clients also participate in 12-step support groups and SMART Recovery groups. There are specialized tracks for clients with eating disorders and process addictions. Lake House provides tailored strategies that include psychoeducation courses that focus on addiction, nutrition therapy, body image and relapse prevention.

The multidisciplinary Resurgence team is comprised of marriage and family therapists, mental health counselors, addiction specialists, psychologists, physicians and nursing team. Medication management and medical services are available for residents with co-occurring mental health conditions.
