Effective Equine Therapy
Camino Recovery specializes in equine assisted psychotherapy (EAP). In fact, their program director, Don Lavender, is a pioneer in the development of the therapy. Through interactions between the horse and the client, a therapist can help the client work through issues, often more effectively than talk therapy.
Addressing Root Causes and Trauma
Therapists at Camino Recovery dig deep to address underlying causes to drug and alcohol abuse and mental health disorders. Using tools like equine therapy and EMDR therapy, they’ll gently guide you through healing from past traumas.
Taking Care of the Family
Over a 4 to 5-day family programme, the family gets to learn how they’ve been affected by their loved one’s behaviour and healthy ways to cope with relationships. The programme involves educational lectures, group therapy sessions and more.
Holistic And Evidence-Based Care
Camino Recovery prioritizes personalized, evidence-based, and holistic care. Each client receives a treatment plan created around their unique circumstance, and with small group sizes, staff at Camino Recovery can attend to all aspects of clients’ treatment. Using evidence-based therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy, Camino Recovery treats a variety of mental health conditions and co-occurring disorders.

Testimonial
The friendly attitude of the people made me feel comfortable from the start, and the beautiful surroundings added to the benevolent atmosphere that gave me the courage to tackle the hard business of recovery. The therapeutic staff proved to be excellent, and I found the whole setup professional and mature. I made more progress towards a lasting recovery in my 4 weeks than in the whole 8 weeks I spent at my first treatment centre.
