About Gateway Recovery Center

This residential center provides treatment for women recovering from substance use, including those who are pregnant or caring for young children. It offers a quiet, structured setting where clients can heal from addiction while addressing related issues like anxiety, depression, and trauma. Treatment blends the 12-step recovery model with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), mindfulness, and other proven approaches tailored to each person’s needs.
Clients live in a secure, gated facility with 24-hour staff support. A typical day includes individual and group counseling, recovery meetings, and time for work or school. Mothers live with their children in a safe environment that offers childcare, parenting classes, and support for basic needs like housing and transportation. The program helps women rebuild stability while gaining the tools and confidence to care for themselves and their families.
The daily routine provides structure and support for lasting recovery. Counseling sessions are paired with life skills training, self-help groups, and personal reflection. Rooms are clean and comfortable, with options for shared or private spaces. Residents can relax in shared lounges or enjoy nearby parks. More than just treatment, this program creates a path to long-term wellness in a setting that feels safe, focused, and restorative.
