Our Levels of Care
We know you may need a more or less intensive treatment program than someone else. Once you begin your healing journey, we can decide what level of care and the type of mental health services are best for you. As you progress in your care, you can transition from one level to another.
Residential Treatment Program (RTC)
A residential treatment program means you stay with us for at least 30 days. While you are at our residential treatment center, you will feel the support of your peers and our team. A benefit of residential rehab is that you are in a safe, supportive environment that allows you to open up and share with others. Your peers can help you learn about yourself, trust others, and face challenges.
Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)
A partial hospitalization program is an intensive, structured treatment program. You will have several hours of therapy during the day, but you can go home in the evening.
Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
Being in an intensive outpatient program gives you the flexibility to go to work and live at home. You will attend day treatment, including therapy sessions at the center, a few hours a day on specific days.
Outpatient Treatment and Aftercare
Your time with us doesn’t end once you complete treatment. We are here to support you once you go back to your life. Our recovery program includes a graduation plan. The graduation program provides a sober living plan that includes resources, support, and planning required to thrive. You will have a purpose and a path to continue your growth.

Here, at Legacy, we use an approach that combines the healing properties of the outdoors with personal growth to allow you to become the person you want to be.

- Building a healthy sleep schedule
Adventure and experiential therapies are evidence-based, active therapies you can try when you’re here. We use these therapies because they are proven to support your recovery journey.
Adventure and Experiential Therapies
While you are with us, you can engage in talk therapy and experiential therapy. Experiential therapy highlights and prioritizes movement and action. When you engage in something or act differently, you think in a new way. One way to include experiential therapy in your treatment is to include outdoor adventures.
Henry David Thoreau, a philosopher and writer, said, “All nature is doing her best each moment to make us well—she exists for no other end. Do not resist her.” Nature has a special way of healing your whole being. Adventure therapy is a type of therapy that utilizes the healing benefits of nature to support and maintain long-term recovery. When you participate in adventure therapy, you will build a support system while learning about your addiction.
Green exercise, any activity done outside, in nature, can increase short- and long-term positive health outcomes. For example, hiking in the mountains can improve self-confidence and physical and mental health. According to the authors of “Aesthetic and Affective Response to Natural Environment,” being in nature can also be a healthy way to decrease your stress level. Outdoor activity replaces the urge to use a substance to help you destress.
Additionally, the benefits of being outside increase when you are also active. Being active releases endorphins in your body. Endorphins are the chemicals in your brain that help relieve stress. Outdoor activity can also help you as you replace your drug of choice with an activity that takes your mind off the drug and withdrawal symptoms, because outdoor exercise increases your dopamine level. The increase in your dopamine level will also help you detox from alcohol or drugs. Dopamine is a hormone and a neurotransmitter in your brain.
Its role as a neurotransmitter includes your:

Support and Education for Families
Legacy Outdoor Adventures understands the importance of healing families. Before you came to us, they may have tried several interventions to help you. Your family is essential to your recovery. That’s why we offer family therapy that includes support and education for families. We use the attachment theory framework so you can mend relationships, improve communication, and learn about family dynamics during these sessions.
Tailored Programs for Men and Women
Men and women need to feel safe and comfortable when they’re healing. Research has proven that separate treatment programs can help men and women face and talk about their traumatic experiences, addiction, and mental health issues freely. For example, a woman may not feel comfortable sharing a traumatic experience like sexual assault in a mixed group. However, a women-only treatment facility can provide the support and understanding needed.
Supportive Environment for Personal Growth
Where you receive your care matters. At Legacy Outdoor Adventures, we aim to make you feel comfortable, respected, and supported. Our groups allow you to build bonds with others who can be there for you even after you leave us. An essential part of building bonds is group therapy.
- Group Therapy: You meet with a therapist and others to discuss experiences and challenges.
