About Bethel Colony of Mercy

Bethel Colony of Mercy is an alcohol and drug abuse treatment center located in Lenoir, North Carolina. They serve as a faith based non-denominational nonprofit that provides free inpatient care and aftercare treatment to adult men and women through their gender specific programming. The facility currently offers beds for 88 men and 20 women.

The inpatient program at Colony of Mercy is best suited for individuals who need a high level of care. Accommodations and meals are provided as clients focus on their recovery needs. The services they offer include classroom teaching, workbooks, audio messages, personal counseling, and Christian based worship services. Amenities include outdoors therapy, sports, and televisions with selected programming. The program lasts 65 days, with an optional extension.

The inpatient program’s group therapy involves treatment through the process of connecting in a group setting to discuss and work through mental, emotional, and physical issues. There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psychoeducation, and health education workshops.

Individual therapy creates the space to explore psychological challenges associated with addiction. Individuals are given the opportunity to talk about and process their emotions. This often includes unresolved trauma, anger, depression, anxiety, and the need for more control or autonomy in life.

Faith based treatment utilizes the spiritual beliefs and teachings of a particular faith to help individuals overcome addiction. Through a connection to their Higher Power, or the God of their religion, overcoming defeating behaviors is thought to become possible. This usually involves daily time spent in prayer, devotion, or reflection to create a deeper connection and the feeling of support through this connection.

Bethel Colony of Mercy has an enrollment fee of $350. The center may be in network with insurance providers, such as Aetna, Beacon, BlueCross/BlueShield, Cigna, Humana, Optum, and Wellpoint. Please check your coverage and out of network benefits.

Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient

Clients who are exiting detox or stepping down from intensive inpatient care typically transition directly into outpatient treatment. Outpatient programs are designed to allow clients to either re-enter or remain in their communities while receiving robust, personalized care. Many facilities offer evening, night, or weekend services to accommodate clients' home and work schedules. The most common outpatient treatment modalities include psychotherapy, recovery-focused life skills training, and medication assisted treatment (MAT).

inpatient iconInpatient Rehab

Clients receiving treatment at an inpatient rehab facility are typically in early recovery or are at heightened risk of relapse. Clients in inpatient care remain at the facility for the duration of their program, enabling them to focus solely on their recovery. Inpatient treatment typically involves extensive psychotherapy, often including group and family counseling as well as one-on-one sessions. Recovery-focused life skills education is another common service. Many rehabs also offer evidence-based holistic therapies.

aftercare iconAftercare

Rehab aftercare programs offer a complete continuum of care for clients in the maintenance phase of recovery and are predicated on the idea that addiction disease is a chronic condition prone to relapse and warranting continuing care. Clients collaborate with their care team and case manager to access the specific rehab aftercare services they need to promote their sustained sobriety. Peer coaching, relapse prevention services, career counseling, and 12 step program induction are common in these programs.

12-step icon12-Step

12 step programs are based on a model of life-long recovery and are rooted in peer support and spiritual development. Regular attendance at 12 step meetings is the cornerstone of treatment, as is the selection of a peer sponsor to guide participants through the steps of recovery. These steps are based on non-denominational spiritual principles and are designed to foster self-awareness, forgiveness, acceptance, and accountability. Specialized programs are widely available, including programs for teens, seniors, and families.

heart-hands iconIntervention Services

Intervention services can provide customized interventions tailored to the needs of the individual and family. An intervention specialist can design and conduct a drug intervention in North Carolina that encourages the individual to enter treatment in a non-coercive manner. The specialist will meet with the family to plan the intervention, then provide expert insights to guide the process and appropriate follow-up care.

partial-hospitalization iconPartial Hospitalization Program

Often used as a "step-down" option after you've completed a residential or inpatient program, the partial hospitalization program (PHP) typically involves a minimum of 20 hours of treatment per week for approximately 90 days. Programs offer structured programming that includes relapse prevention, medication management, and behavioral therapy services. Insurance coverage for PHP treatment varies among insurance providers.

medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox

A medically assisted detox is the safest way to remove addictive drugs and alcohol from your body. A team of licensed medical professionals will look after you 24/7 to monitor your health, help minimize discomfort, and provide medications if necessary to alleviate any withdrawal symptoms. This process is typically the first step in your recovery and may take around 5-7 days, although length will depend on your individual needs.

Heart icon Treatment

mental-health iconMental Health and Substance Abuse

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

Hand holding medical sign icon Clinical Services

inpatient-file iconCognitive Behavioral Therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

intervention iconGroup Therapy

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

mental-health iconIndividual Therapy

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

house-medical iconTrauma Therapy

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.

couples-therapy iconCouples Therapy

Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.

family iconFamily Therapy

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

life-skills iconLife Skills

Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.

Nutrition Therapy

Nutrition therapy, aka medical nutrition therapy (MNT), is a way of treating physical, emotional, and medical conditions through diet. Specific dietary plans are designed by professional nutritionists or registered dietitians, and patients follow them in order to positively affect their physical and mental health.

recreational-therapy iconRecreational Therapy

Recreational therapy (aka therapeutic recreation) uses creative and fun activities to help with addiction recovery. Recreational therapists lead patients in entertaining and engaging activities like sports or games; art (drawing, painting, sculpture); drama, music, and dance; and/or community outings (field trips) to improve patients' physical, social, and emotional well-being.

As a student in 2008 then volunteer Counseling Coordinator for a season in 2009, l had the opportunity to experience first hand the powerful expression of God s faithful work in the lives of those (like me) who were dealing with an addiction. In 2017 l came back to Bethel Colony of Mercy for a year as a volunteer Strategic Advisor focused on building our ministry brand in Caldwell County, forging key alliances and assessing new, innovative paths to more robustly resource this 76-year-old transformation ministry. In 2023 God led me back as a volunteer to assist the executive director Pastor Paul Pruitt and board of directors as the ministry set its course on growth across both the men s & women s growing campuses. The desperate need for Bethel s innovative, 65-day Biblically driven, faith-based program is without question. More than 12 people die daily in North Carolina (alone) from opioid overdoses. America is in the dark abyss of substance abuse agony and the only durable solution is a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, while following a path of daily discipleship. With a youngest daughter who has had addiction impacts in her own life, l cannot help but have new hope kindled whenever observing the lives of women like her so radically changing on the beautiful 148 acre women s campus in Lenoir, NC. There is hope, healing and health here at Bethel Colony of Mercy. My personal recommendation is without qualification along with a strong encouragement and invitation for anyone who is at a dead end in their lives. Just pick up the phone and call. Miracles still happen. We see them every day in transformed lives and mended families!Butch MaltbyBethel graduate 2008

Addicts need support and love This is NOT the place. You wrote someone up for their baseboards being wet after you require them to be cleaned? Seems like they re constantly looking for ways to kick anyone out and when they want to come back they want you to call twice a week and basically beg to be let back in?! That is not really welcoming with open arms and I m sure they have an excuse for treating them this way. If you re looking for a loving support to help with someone in addiction I would find a different program. I have never heard of a facility wanting to help someone in addiction just toss them out and have them beg to come back. Ridiculous.

Response from the owner2 months ago
Hello Larissa, we have never dismissed anyone from our program for wet baseboards or any surface that got cleaned. It sounds like you have been mislead on the real reason someone got dismissed or if they got dismissed at all. If someone disqualified themselves from our program or choose to leave. We do give them an opportunity to come back. We do ask them to check in, because we want to make sure we hold that bed for them if they desire to come back. If they do not desire we want to make sure we make it available to the next person who has applied. We hope your love one will come to real freedom, that is possible through Jesus.

I was at Bethel 24 years ago. I worked in the office during my time. Bethel restored me to where I needed to be. I went on to marry and have 2 daughters. The oldest is actually getting married today as we are back in Asheville, NC. No programs are perfect, but if you're seeking to let God change your life Bethel provides the place for that to happen. Many thanks and continue the Lord's work there...

It is unfortunate and puzzling that this "ministry" declines entry to anyone who is HIV+ or HepC+. Clearly not a lot has changed within the last 30 years if this is still a reason for denial. It is no longer the 80s or 90s and education and treatment have greatly improved. Unfortunately their decision only continues to uphold the stigma surrounding HIV and other communicable diseases. There is no desire from their management and Board of Directors to receive education from medical providers experienced in this field.

Response from the owner6 months ago
Hello Samuel that is not an accurate statement. Only those who have ongoing medical needs with HepC do we recommend to attend another program that can handle the medical components. When someone who has had progressed HepC symptoms they need more attention that we can help with. We are not a medical program as stated in our application. There are some requirements that need to be meet to be admitted. If you have any other questions please call.

So I spent approximately 20 years in addiction to crack/cocaine. That's not to mention starting other drugs and drinking around 12 - 13 years old. During those years I completed at least two other programs, and many out-patient and 12 step groups. Ultimately, it Was Bethel Colony that helped set me free from the things that tormented me! Perhaps timing and/or my complete surrender were factors. But I know that it was at Bethel that I found freedom. They had all the factors needed; the care, the love, the knowledge, the wisdom, the experience, the expertise and yes, the power of God. And I thank God that He used the people and facility at Bethel to help me and countless men like me. I have recommended them countless times and currently can hardly wait to see the transformation of a friend of mine who took my suggestion and is at Bethel, now.

I come from Switzerland and found myself at a point in life where I thought it was shattered. I heard about Bethel from a former mentor and pastor, thinking I needed a time-out. Through a prayer confirmation, I went to Bethel in faith.There, I found brothers, men who had fallen and risen again. I discovered that God wasn't done with me and that I still had a calling. I realized that my world wasn't falling apart but falling into place. Now, I'm married, have a wonderful son, and I'm studying at ISTL pursuing a Bachelor's in Pastoral Leadership, being trained as an apostle. Bethel has been a transformative journey, and I am grateful for the restoration and purpose it brought into my life.No distant is too far, when you find what you seek. And I found Jesus again, and He found me.I highly recommend each man who is struggling with whatever to visit this wonderful place. You will be shaped and restored.Remain blessed everyoneKuya

Coming through the women s program and being apart of the Bethel family has made such a positive impact on my life in so many ways. It is amazing the mountains that can be moved when we let God take control of every aspect in our lives. This program not only put the structure back in my life where my addiction had taken over. I learned to accept God s forgiveness and how to move forward. Bethel s program is not meant to be easy, but helps you face your problems head on, relearn discipline, and be a functioning member of society. It definitely changed my view on life, and I highly recommend it if you would like to change yours. Jesus is the answer, you just need to take that leap of faith. <3

I went to Bethel Colony of Mercy in 2021 and it drastically changed my life. This program helped to equip me for battle. The staff is amazing, each member leading by example; always directing you back to biblical truths. While there, I developed an intimate relationship with Jesus Christ and it laid the foundation of my recovery. I also developed friendships with some godly women, who hold me accountable. I am so grateful for this program; all the restoration, love and support that I have gained by attending. Praise the Lord!
