Upon Arrival

When a participant arrives at Her Recovery, she is placed under the care of a medical professional to assess her as medically stable for the program and to monitor and manage the woman as she progresses through withdrawal. This is the first step in the drug rehabilitation program and does not require a referral from a physician.

Participants will have their bags inspected for safety purposes upon arrival.

Addiction Treatment

In addition to our mental, spiritual, emotional and physical approach and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, we offer our alumni lifetime aftercare to support the individuals and their families in making a positive and permanent change in their lives.

Participants in Alberta will be able to receive a psychiatric assessment and treatment available from addictions expert Dr. Avi Aulakh, MD, FRCOC, DABAM.

Our addiction rehab program duration is 4, 8 or 12 weeks in length with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) being focused on more intensely after the fourth week. Participants will receive one-on-one counselling, group counselling, family skills support, and fellowship meetings (both in-house and in the community).

Participants are provided with a computer tablet (pre-loaded with the full program content) enabling them with ongoing access to live 12-step meetings every day, following their treatment. This also supports continuous aftercare, enabling participants to maintain contact with their fellow participants to strengthen relationships and providing accountability on a daily basis.

Following their successful completion, each participant will receive a Program Certificate, will have access to our Lifetime Aftercare Program and receive membership in the HerRecovery Alumni Group.
