Substance use can take more than you realize

Substance use can affect every area of life. It may take time away from family, interfere with work responsibilities, strain relationships and impact emotional well-being.

Many individuals continue to hold jobs, care for loved ones and meet daily responsibilities while quietly struggling with alcohol or drug use. Recovery can help restore balance, improve health and make life more manageable and fulfilling.

Our approach

Outpatient recovery programs are designed to help patients overcome substance use challenges while continuing to engage in daily life. At Regain, our philosophy of care extends beyond that of a typical substance use treatment center.

We combine evidence-based recovery practices with a highly private, individualized outpatient healing experience. You will only find this level of coordinated behavioral health care at Willowbrooke at Tanner.

Our multidisciplinary patient care team — including psychiatrists, counselors and therapists — evaluates and addresses your unique emotional, psychological and physical needs. The program is administered by a psychiatrist and a licensed professional counselor who collaborate with referring providers to ensure continuity of care.

Recovery is not one-size-fits-all. Your treatment plan is personalized to help you regain stability, rebuild health and return to a productive, meaningful life.

What Regain addresses

Substance use can affect every area of life — health, work, relationships and emotional well-being. 

Our therapy model focuses on the underlying issues that affect your ability to live a balanced and productive life. Recovery involves more than stopping substance use. Effective treatment addresses emotional, behavioral and environmental factors that support long-term wellness.

Regain provides structured support for individuals experiencing challenges with:

• Alcohol
• Opioids and prescription pain medications
• Benzodiazepines
• Marijuana
• Cocaine and methamphetamine
• Synthetic substances
• Co-occurring concerns such as anxiety or depression

Whether described as addiction, substance misuse or substance abuse, these terms reflect real challenges that deserve compassionate, professional treatment.

Program benefits include:

• Multidisciplinary care teams that address physical, emotional and environmental needs
• Experienced clinicians with extensive backgrounds in mental health and addiction treatment

Recovery is possible

Recovery is not about perfection. It is about rebuilding stability, improving health and creating a life that feels manageable and meaningful again.

Whether substance use has affected work, family relationships, emotional health or overall well-being, treatment can provide the structure and support needed to move forward with confidence.

Every recovery journey is different, which is why treatment at Regain is individualized to meet each person's unique needs and goals.
