About Santé
When a person becomes addicted, life is unmanageable and full of chaos. Frequently, the addict becomes isolated and fearful, neglecting relationships and health needs. A primary ingredient for healing is placement in a safe, structured, and nurturing environment with others who have come to heal focusing on not only the addiction, but the whole person. Santé Center for Healing offers a setting that helps the person focus on healing physically, mentally and spiritually.
Patients at Santé receive significant individual attention through a full spectrum of therapeutic support. The interdisciplinary approach to healing combined with the caliber, qualifications, and experience of the staff offer the attention needed to address addiction that may or may not be complicated by mental health issues. Santé staff members are a team of caring individuals that believe in empowering others to live a better life one day at a time for the betterment of each individual. Three Santé physician/psychiatrists, experienced in the physical, mental, and spiritual aspects of therapeutic healing are an integral part of the clinical team; through daily involvement, they meet with patients individually, conduct groups and participate in the evaluation and care of each patients individual treatment plans.
Santé Center for Healing understands that the road to recovery is not always smooth. The disease itself deeply affects the addicted person’s mind, body, and emotions uniquely and must be individually treated. The therapeutic team emphasizes relapse prevention and assists each patient in developing an individualized plan that is solution-focused – working towards a healthy balance that addresses each problematic area of vulnerability that could result in relapse.
