Caron's approach redefines addiction and behavioral health treatment to give patients better outcomes and a stronger foundation for long-term recovery. This trailblazing approach incorporates neurotherapies to restore brain health, offering patients a clear path to a fulfilling recovery and renewed relationships.

We combine proven treatment with innovative approaches that target the brain to address the biological, psychological, and social aspects of addiction, grounding our approach in personalized care, compassion, and hope. Our whole-person focus ensures we address underlying issues complicating recovery from substance use disorders and empowers patients with the tools needed for long-term recovery.

Caron’s goal is the same as it has always been: to give our patients what they need to thrive, including:

  • Social and community connection
  • Healthy family relationships
  • Active recovery

Treating the whole person is vital for long-term recovery.

Drug and alcohol problems are rarely isolated. They go hand-in-hand with psychiatric and psychological disorders, like depression, anxiety, and trauma-related disorders, to name a few. That's why we address underlying issues with substance use disorder.

Our treatment programs blend the latest evidence-based medical and psychological practices with proven addiction treatment methods like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), 12-Step integration, motivational interviewing, addiction counseling, and positive peer culture.

Our comprehensive, holistic approach focuses on:

  • Therapy: Through individual and group therapy, patients learn to use healthy coping skills and emotional regulation. Education about how addiction works on the brain supports the benefits of treatment. Intensive, experiential workshops employ role play and hands-on activities to deepen patients’ insights.
  • Brain health: By integrating advanced neurorestorative technologies to target the brain, we help patients create a foundation for self-regulation and resilience.
  • Health and wellness: Everyone’s treatment plans incorporate exercise and fitness, nutritional counseling, as clinically indicated, healthy meals, and education to promote good health.
  • Spirit: Caron’s spiritual support services, as well as 12-Step and similar programs, give patients ways to strengthen their connections to themselves, others, nature, and their faith.

Focusing on the science of treatment ensures targeted, transformative care.

Our neurorestorative approach optimizes neuroplasticity—the brain’s remarkable capacity to change and heal itself—to address changes or deficits and create the ability to more strongly engage in treatment and recovery. Caron integrates advanced technologies targeting the brain alongside traditional, evidence-based therapy modalities, capitalizing on neuroplasticity to rewire the brain, optimize function, and aid and advance the brain’s natural ability to heal itself—creating a foundation for self-regulation and resilience.

Caring for the whole family is integral to healing.

We are as committed to caring for family members as we are to caring for patients. Our family programs incorporate education on substance use disorder and behavioral health, intervention for family members with substance use disorder, and access to a supportive community of other family patients.

At Caron, we promise to:

  • Treat you and your family with respect, dignity, and compassion
  • Give you the tools and support you need to achieve recovery for life
  • Conduct ourselves with the highest ethical standards
  • Partner with you and your family to create a personalized, integrated behavioral health treatment plan
  • Use research and evidence-based practices that result in the best value-based outcomes
  • Make treatment available through financial assistance

Our Evidence-Based Treatment and Value-Based Care Works

A leader in addiction medicine, Caron has a well-rounded on-site team of full-time physicians who are board certified in at least one, but often two or three, medical specialties including addiction, cardiology, emergency medicine, and psychology. As an interdisciplinary team, they work closely with licensed nurses, credentialed clinicians, and compassionate support staff to intimately understand patients' mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual needs to inform their treatment and journey toward recovery.

Caron Treatment Centers - Rate of Success and Recovery


In fact, two leading insurance providers conducted independent studies which show that Caron's patients have a 92.4% rate of recovery in the first 90-days after treatment, which is a crucial milestone in maintaining one's recovery.
