CARF Accredited · Confidential · St. Catharines, OntarioThe Dependencies We Help With, and the Person Underneath
In Niagara, Ontario, we focus on addressing the underlying causes of addiction, never the label alone.
Substance Use Disorders & Co-Occurring Concerns
Addiction rarely arrives alone. Most people we work with are managing more than one dependency, or a substance alongside anxiety, depression or unresolved trauma. We treat the whole person, never the label on the file, because addressing one without the other is how recovery comes undone. Read more about our approach to addiction treatment.
- Private residential treatment
- At least 72 hours of sobriety before arrival
- Detox referrals arranged when needed
- Trauma-informed throughout
Co-Occurring Mental Health
Addiction is rarely just physical. We treat anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, mood disorders and stress-related conditions alongside the dependency, in one coordinated, trauma-informed plan, so nothing gets left untreated.
How we treat concurrent conditions →Care for the Substance, and the Person
Alcohol →
From high-functioning dependency to daily drinking, residential care that treats what sits underneath it, on a path back that doesn’t shame you.
Opiates & Fentanyl →
Structured, trauma-informed care for the most dangerous dependency of our time, with a detox referral arranged first when it’s needed.
Cocaine →
Steady residential care through the crash, the cravings and the cycle that follows them, so what is driving the use gets treated as well.
Methamphetamine →
Time and clinical support to settle the exhaustion, the paranoia and the broken sleep, and real structure for the months that come after.
Benzodiazepines →
Careful support for one of the hardest dependencies to stop safely, with medically-supervised withdrawal arranged through our partners first.
Prescription Drugs →
When the thing that was meant to help became the problem, opioid, stimulant or sedative, care without judgment and a safe plan to come off it.
Cannabis →
Legal does not mean harmless. When sleep, motivation and the shape of your days have reorganized around cannabis, residential care that treats what it was managing.
Gambling →
The addiction with no substance in it, online betting, casinos and the chase, hidden longest and found out last. Treated with the same seriousness, in the same program, as any dependency.
Mental Health & Trauma →
Anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, mood and stress, the weather the substance was managing. Treated together with the dependency, by one team, never referred out and forgotten.

When It Might Be Time to Reach Out
There’s no threshold you have to cross to deserve help. If a few of these feel familiar, it’s worth a conversation, no pressure and no commitment.
You don’t have to be sure. One call or text can help you figure out the next step, together.
Talk to someone- You’ve tried to cut back or stop, and it hasn’t held.
- The people closest to you have started to worry, or you’ve started hiding it from them.
- You’re using more, or more often, just to feel normal.
- Sleep, work, money or relationships are starting to slip.
- You feel anxious, low or numb when you’re not using.
- You’ve told yourself “this is the last time” more than once.
