Addiction Treatment Program
Participants in Alberta will be able to receive a psychiatric assessment and treatment available from addictions expert Dr. Avi Aulakh, MD, FRCOC, DABAM. HerRecovery also offers our alumni lifetime aftercare to support the individuals through our alumni program and peer connections making a positive and permanent change in their lives


Our program is 4, 8 or 12 weeks in length with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) being completed after the fourth week. Participants will receive one-on-one counselling, group therapy, family skills and fellowship meetings (both in-house and in the community). Our program is structured with scheduled times for physical activity like yoga, fitness classes, and outdoor walks as well as recreational programming like gardening and Paint Nights.
Participants are provided with a computer tablet (pre-loaded with the full program content) enabling them with ongoing access to live 12-step meetings, CBT supportive AI and daily positive affirmations 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.
