Elite Recovery’s Advantage Partial Hospitalization program is designed to meet the complex needs of individuals with co-occurring substance use, mental health and medical disorders. Our mission statement: To enrich and empower individuals seeking recovery from substance use disorders.

Elite Advantage is designed to assist persons in early sobriety to develop the knowledge, skills and attitudes for long-term recovery. Recovery includes shifting one’s attitude, learning new skills, developing healthy support systems and successfully addressing emotional and mental health challenges.

Treatment Services

Elite Recovery Advantage offers individual and group programming that allows clients the opportunity to learn about substance use, mental health, communication skills, relationships and physical health issues that may impact recovery. Education and counseling services are provided in group and individual sessions by licensed addiction counselors, mental health professionals and medical providers.

Individual Counseling/Treatment Planning

Each client meets with a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor in the first five days following admission and at least one hour weekly or biweekly thereafter. A clinician completes a comprehensive assessment and develops an individual treatment plan in consultation with the client. Each week, the counselor and client review the treatment plan and revise goals, objectives, and interventions as needed.

Clients with applicable diagnoses may also meet with a psychiatric nurse practitioner or a member of the Health Promotions team to address specific needs identified in the treatment plan.

Group Service Types

Elite Advantage offers a variety of group service types. The group type refers to how the group is structured. This may include general discussion, educational presentations, manualized curriculum, check-in, and skill development. Group service types include group processing and counseling, check-in groups, psycho-education, skills groups, lecture/topic presentations, and curriculum/structured group.
