If you’re a woman considering treatment for drug or alcohol use, know this: you are not alone, and care that truly understands you is available.

Women often face unique challenges on the path to recovery, including trauma, caregiving responsibilities, mental health concerns, and stigma. That’s why treatment should reflect the realities of your life, not force you into a one-size-fits-all approach.

At IBH Addiction Recovery, women-centered programs are designed to meet you where you are, with compassionate, evidence-based care that supports the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. From residential treatment and recovery housing to outpatient services and long-term support, IBH Addiction Recovery offers a pathway to healing shaped by women’s real-life experiences.

Your recovery deserves understanding.
