Our mission is to help those who suffer from drug and alcohol addiction learn a new way of life, repair the past and continue the daily process of recovery into the future.

Our proven approach to treatment takes into account each client’s background and specific needs. Unlike other facilities, we focus on more than just abstinence; we believe that a successful treatment plan must address the underlying spiritual, emotional and psychological causes of addiction.

To this end, we take a holistic, integrated approach to the disease of addiction, by providing customized treatments that focus on the mind, body, and spirit simultaneously.

Specializations

12-Step

The term “12 Step Program” describes a way to recover from addiction that is based on the model developed by Alcoholics Anonymous. Many drug and alcohol treatment centers base their treatment on 12 steps – the first three of which are situational, the next four addressing the practical issues created by the addiction, followed by two steps focused on making amends for hurting others. Steps 10 and 11 involve a deeper examination of the previous steps and the final step is focused on helping others avoid and recover from addiction.

Individualized Treatment

Some facilities have an addiction treatment protocol that all patients or clients are expected to follow, while others customize or individualize treatment based on a person’s unique needs and circumstances. Factors that may affect treatment decisions include age, lifestyle, medical conditions, type of drug, religious beliefs, etc.

Trauma & Associative Awareness Therapy (AAT)

Associative Awareness Therapy (AAT) uses the brain’s innate ability to adapt to change in a healing way, essentially “retraining” the brain to respond differently to familiar memories of trauma or pain.

Animal Therapy

Animal therapy (also called animal-assisted therapy and pet therapy) supports recovery and emotional wellbeing by helping people develop relationships with animals. Animal therapy can be a one-time or ongoing experience.

ABOUT RECOVERING CHAMPIONS

Based in the Cape Cod town of East Falmouth, Massachusetts, Recovering Champions offers residential and outpatient treatment to adults struggling with substance use disorder and co-occurring mental health disorders.

TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT

All clients receive a comprehensive assessment upon admission to determine the appropriate level of care. Residential treatment is 12-step based and includes one-on-one counseling, group therapy, and educational workshops, along with holistic activities such as yoga, meditation, as well as art and music therapy.

Outpatient options include a day program, which meets six hours a day and is a level of treatment offered by 14 percent of facilities across the country, and an intensive outpatient program (IOP), which meets for three hours per day, is a treatment level offered by 46 percent of facilities nationwide.

Medication-assisted therapy (MAT), less intensive outpatient treatment (OP), and family counseling are also available. The facility also provides medication management for psychiatric disorders, which is a service offered by 45 percent of all U.S. treatment facilities.

STAFF CREDENTIALS

According to the center’s website, the staff includes master’s-level therapists and social workers, licensed alcohol and drug counselors, and case managers. To date, the five individuals polled by Rehabs.com on the matter appreciated the staff's aptitude.

Staff Experience and Training: 5/5

ACCOMMODATIONS & AMENITIES

According to a Cape Cod Times article from 2015, the residential facility has 50 beds. Photographs of this converted motor lodge and of the outpatient treatment center depict warm and serene settings with modern furnishings. To date, the five individuals polled by Rehabs.com on the matter approved of the facility's upkeep and praised the opportunities for physical activities.

WHAT ALUMNI SAY

Of the 12 former clients surveyed by Rehabs.com to date, eight offered positive feedback while four left negative reviews. Alumni who were happy with their experience described the rehab as a life-changing treatment program with compassionate staff and individualized care. " I was amazed at the level of care - the personal attention by the staff and the holistic approach that treated my mental, physical, and spiritual issues," T.C. wrote in a review representative of positive feedback.

Unhappy former clients, on the other hand, complained about inappropriate client and staff relationships, as well as misleading marketing. "Nor even close to what the website portrays," E.O. noted in a review representative of negative feedback.

The rehab fared well on Google[1], where it earned an average rating of 4.5 out of five stars based on 56 reviews. "I recommend this place to anyone who needs heps with their drug or alcohol problem. The food is great is the staff is great. This place has plenty to do and see," John wrote in a representative review.

WHAT FRIENDS & FAMILY SAY

K.C., the sole loved one polled by Rehabs.com to date, indicated that they would recommend the program highly and awarded it five out of five stars for its counseling options, its treatment of co-occurring disorders, its staff's level of training and experience, and its family participation. "The fact that they involve the families in the recovery process is great," they noted.

WHAT STAFF SAY

Of the three staff members polled by Rehabs.com to date, two left positive feedback and one offered a negative review. The two positive reviewers noted they would recommend the facility highly and awarded it five out of five stars for its counseling options, its treatment of co-occurring disorders, and its cleanliness. "Clients gain the skills to go back out into the world and not revert back to old habits," one staff member wrote.

The one negative reviewer complained about high staff turnover and echoed alumni complaints about inappropriate relationships between clients and staff.

FINANCING

According to the facility's website, most private insurance plans, including ones from Aetna, Cigna, and Blue Cross Blue Shield, are accepted. A form to begin verifying insurance coverage is available online. To date, the five individuals polled by Rehabs.com on the matter praised the facility's cost.
