Winds of Change: Comprehensive Addiction Recovery
Winds of Change, located at 1120 Cedar Street in Missoula, MT, offers a dedicated and compassionate environment for individuals seeking freedom from substance use disorders. Understanding that recovery is a deeply personal journey, this program emphasizes holistic care, treating the person as a whole—mind, body, and spirit—not just the addiction itself. The center is committed to providing evidence-based practices blended with personalized therapeutic approaches, ensuring every client receives the focused attention necessary for sustainable healing and long-term sobriety.
A Personalized Approach to Healing
The foundation of the Winds of Change program rests on individualized treatment planning. Upon admission, a thorough assessment is conducted by licensed professionals to determine the client’s specific needs, history of substance use, co-occurring mental health conditions, and personal goals. This detailed evaluation allows the clinical team to craft a highly effective and dynamic treatment path. Whether an individual requires intensive residential support or a more flexible outpatient structure, the program adapts to meet them where they are in their recovery process.
Core Treatment Components
Our curriculum integrates various modalities designed to foster emotional resilience, develop healthy coping mechanisms, and address the root causes of addictive behaviors. Treatment incorporates both individual and group settings, creating a supportive community where clients can learn from shared experiences.
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Helps clients identify and modify harmful thought patterns leading to substance use.
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): Teaches emotional regulation and distress tolerance skills.
- Family Therapy: Involves loved ones in the recovery process to repair relationships and build a strong support system.
- Relapse Prevention Planning: Equips clients with practical strategies for maintaining sobriety after completing the program.
- Experiential Therapies: Includes mindfulness, art therapy, and fitness activities to promote physical and mental wellness.
Transitioning to Long-Term Wellness
Completing the initial phase of treatment is just the beginning. Winds of Change places significant emphasis on aftercare planning, recognizing that the transition back to daily life requires structure and ongoing support. The staff assists clients in connecting with local resources, including sober living environments, community support groups (such as 12-Step programs), and continuing individual therapy. Our commitment is to ensure clients have the tools and network required to navigate challenges successfully and establish a fulfilling life in recovery.
