Customized Care Across Every Phase of Recovery
Immersion Recovery offers a complete range of services, including medical detox, residential treatment, a partial hospitalization program (PHP), an intensive outpatient program (IOP), virtual care options, and comprehensive aftercare planning—delivered through a structured three-phase model.
Phase 1 focuses on detox, residential stabilization, and establishing a foundation for recovery. Phase 2 builds motivation and commitment through PHP (day treatment), a full-day program where clients may live at home or in a sober living residence.

This phased model can extend to a full year of care or be condensed for clients seeking a faster track. Length of stay in each phase is personalized in collaboration with the clinical team. Across all levels of care, clients participate in evidence-based treatments such as motivational interviewing, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR).
