Stepworks of Bowling Green: Compassionate Residential Addiction Recovery
Stepworks of Bowling Green, located at 331 Brookewood Drive, offers comprehensive residential addiction treatment services for adults and young adults seeking lasting recovery from substance use disorders. This facility is designed to be a modern, comfortable, and supportive environment where patients can focus entirely on building a solid foundation for a new life.

Integrated Treatment Programs
The core offering at Stepworks of Bowling Green is the integrated Detox and Residential Program. This structured treatment typically spans 30 days, beginning with medically supervised detox and professional withdrawal management. This initial phase is crucial for stabilizing patients before they transition into intensive therapeutic work. For individuals with less severe needs, a shorter stay focusing solely on medical detox may be recommended.
Therapeutic Modalities and Support
The facility emphasizes counseling as a cornerstone of treatment. Patients participate in a variety of therapeutic sessions designed to help them understand the root causes of their addiction and develop effective coping mechanisms for long-term sobriety. Treatment includes:
- Individual Counseling
- Group Counseling
- Family Counseling
- Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)
Stepworks is a medical leader in detox for substances including opiates, alcohol, and benzodiazepines, using protocols and medications like Suboxone or Vivitrol (as part of MAT) to make the withdrawal process more manageable. The facility is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF), underscoring its commitment to high standards of care.
A Focus on Community and Environment
Recovery is not meant to happen in isolation. To foster a sense of community and mutual support, Stepworks of Bowling Green utilizes shared patient rooms, similar to a dorm setting. This living arrangement encourages patients to connect with and support one another as they navigate the challenges of early recovery. Furthermore, the facility provides relaxing community spaces and outdoor recreational areas, ensuring a balance between intense therapeutic work and personal reflection needed for significant, lasting change.
