Holistic Recovery and Native American Approach

Olalla uses therapies that target the healing of mind, body and spirit. While using evidence-based therapies, they also use acupuncture, yoga, meditation, nutrition counseling, psychoeducation from psychologists, as well as Native American spiritual practices if desired. Within their Native American program, the clinicians help the patients move past their addiction and build a new life in a spiritual way. This program may be a good fit for patients who are not receptive to 12-Step programs but still desire spirituality in their recovery journey. Through spiritual circles, smudging ceremonies and the use of the medicine wheel, patients can access the power of ceremony, culture and community while letting go of their addiction.
