Jaywalker Lodge: Inspiring Men’s Recovery in Carbondale, Colorado
Located in the beautiful, historic setting of Carbondale, Colorado, Jaywalker Lodge is a distinguished drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility dedicated exclusively to helping men achieve lasting sobriety and personal growth. Founded in 2005, the program is built on the core values of accountability, deep friendships, and the conviction that a fulfilling life in recovery is entirely attainable. Jaywalker utilizes a unique, comprehensive treatment model that merges clinical excellence with the powerful, therapeutic environment of the surrounding Roaring Fork Valley mountains.
Dual Diagnosis and Comprehensive Treatment
Jaywalker Lodge employs a dual-diagnosis approach, meaning they treat not only the symptoms of substance abuse—including addiction to alcohol, opioids, fentanyl, and benzodiazepines—but also the underlying co-occurring mental health conditions. This holistic strategy addresses issues such as anxiety disorders, depression, Bipolar Disorder, PTSD, and OCD, which often fuel addiction. By treating both aspects simultaneously, the program ensures a more stable and sustainable foundation for long-term recovery.
