About Burkwood Treatment Center

Burkwood Treatment Center offers quality and individualized treatment for adults affected by substance use disorders. They also address co-occurring disorders. This is when someone is struggling with both substance misuse and mental issues. This residential facility is located in picturesque Hudson, Wisconsin, close to Minneapolis and St. Paul.

Residential treatment is a great option if you’re dealing with severe substance misuse requiring intensive therapeutic intervention with 24/7 support in a structured setting. At Burkwood Treatment Center you’ll join a vibrant community of peers dedicated to the pursuit of sobriety and wellness. These peers will support you and help you learn personal accountability and responsibility. Their full continuum of care also includes intensive outpatient care and transitional living programming.

Their interdisciplinary clinical team comprises compassionate, caring and knowledgeable professionals. These experts are committed to delivering ‘whole person’ care. Their recovery approach integrates clinically proven models like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and EMDR with MAAEZ. MAAEZ is an innovative research backed approach they use to introduce their patients to AA groups and 12 Step programming.

Their recovery approach also incorporates the Way of Life programming. This employs detailed treatment manuals, audio recordings and individual and group sessions to promote lifelong sobriety through meaningful lifestyle changes. Optional family therapy is available to help you rebuild trust, mend relationships and improve communication with loved ones. This enhances your support network which helps your recovery process.

Besides the group and individual therapy, you’ll also benefit from yoga and recreational groups. The residential care can last up to 40 days and includes a comprehensive discharge plan. This normally involves stepping down to their intensive outpatient care for ongoing recovery. This program is slightly more structured and involves more therapeutic activities than traditional outpatient care. You can expect to participate in up to nine hours of group sessions weekly for about 16 weeks.

The beauty of it lies in its flexibility since it allows you to maintain your regular routine while engaging in effective treatment. Evening and afternoon sessions are available, and both are designed to fit your schedule. This fosters a balance between healing and daily responsibilities. It also lets you practice what you’ve learned in therapy daily with immediate feedback. This ongoing feedback can help you ease back into your community and daily routine. The group sessions are based on CBT and motivational interview techniques. They also offer individual counseling and 12 Step recovery.

You can take advantage of their transitional housing facility to prepare for reintegration into the community. Their sober house provides a structured, drug-free and supportive community where you can focus on your recovery, build healthy relationships and develop essential life skills. That way you’ll be well equipped for successful community engagement and sustainable recovery upon reintegration. The sober house only serves adult men, unlike their other programs. You must also be actively involved in their afternoon intensive outpatient programming to live in the house.

Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient

Clients who are admitted to an outpatient rehab may be stepping down from intensive inpatient care or may be transitioning directly from a detox facility. Outpatient treatment enables clients to remain in or return to their home, workplace, and community without compromising access to care. Clients engage in addiction counseling and recovery education and may also receive evidence-based complementary therapies, such as yoga, acupuncture, and massage. Medication assisted treatment (MAT) is commonly available for clients in alcohol and/or opioid recovery.

inpatient iconInpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements. At Burkwood, residential care is the heart of their addiction treatment program. With evidence-based curricula, a 1-to-8 counselor-to-participant ratio, and a comprehensive spectrum of adjunctive programming, Burkwood’s residential program is the place to come for a successful indoctrination into their recovering way of life.

intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient

Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs.

aftercare iconAftercare

Rehab aftercare programs support clients' long-term recovery through highly customized wraparound care aligned with clients' evolving needs. Most have been sober for a period of weeks or longer and have completed intensive inpatient rehab but may be receiving outpatient care. Many clients also receive services after being discharged from formal treatment. Long-term care plans are typically developed in collaboration with the client's case manager and care team and may include peer coaching, relapse prevention, and related services.

12-step icon12-Step

12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). Burkwood Treatment Center specializes in TSF (Twelve Step Facilitation). They utilize the Evidence-Based MAAEZ Program (Making Alcoholics Anonymous Easier) created by the American Public Health Institute’s award-winning Senior Scientist, Dr. Lee Kaskutas. They also use a number of effective counseling modalities to help participants begin recovery.

sober-living iconSober Living Homes

Individuals staying in a sober living home in Wisconsin benefit from support and friendship with others in recovery. They're also encouraged to continue rehab through support groups and outpatient treatment. Halfway house residents further benefit from increased responsibility and mutual accountability that helps them practice recovery skills. Their time at a sober living home prepares them to transition back to regular life after treatment.

heart-hands iconIntervention Services

If you are planning a drug intervention in Wisconsin, many rehab facilities offer professional intervention services to assist you. Having the expert insight of a trained intervention specialist can improve your chances of success when helping you plan and facilitate the intervention. This third-party involvement can provide the impartiality necessary for a productive conversation and appropriate guidance for next steps.

Heart icon Treatment

check iconDual Diagnosis

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

substance-abuse iconSubstance 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.

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.

dialectical iconDialectical Behavior Therapy

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.

intervention iconGroup Therapy

Cornerstone to the care supplied by their center is group therapy. At their addiction rehab center, participants working to recover from a substance abuse disorder are able to further their progress when they have the support of others who understand firsthand the challenges associated with recovery. Led by their staff of devoted counselors, group therapy sessions occur daily.

mental-health iconIndividual Therapy

A man or woman in recovery can greatly benefit from being able to process his or her experiences while in treatment. As a treatment center that is dedicated to offering superior care, Burkwood provides its participants with weekly individual therapy sessions so that they are able to talk through emotions, share feelings, and learn new skills that will allow them to overcome an addiction to substances.

desert iconMotivational Interviewing

When conducting motivational interviewing in Wisconsin, therapists engage with their clients as equal partners. They don't provide unsolicited advice or confront clients. Instead, they ask questions and listen, with the goal of empowering clients to recognize any need for change and their ability to make those changes.

family iconFamily Therapy

In order to help participants mend the relationships they have with their family members and other loved ones, Burkwood is able to facilitate family therapy sessions on an as-needed basis. When partaking in family therapy, men and women and the individuals in their primary support networks can work to overcome the turmoil an addiction to substances has caused and can restore their bonds with one another.

life-skills iconLife Skills

Addiction treatment in Wisconsin emphasizes life skills training to help you relearn critical capabilities for day to day life. This training helps you build healthy, positive strategies for everything from self care, to career, to interpersonal relationships.

nutritional-therapy iconNutritional Therapy

recreational-therapy iconRecreational Therapy

Recreational therapy in Wisconsin helps you find purpose in healthy activities that take the place of substance use in your life.

DO NOT GO HERE! Not a dual facility. Its a cult that feeds off of desperation and draining insurance money. First couple nights the heat in my room didn't work. Basically freezing in October. My father to this day is upset he dropped me off here! Counselors treat everyone like the scum of the Earth. To them everyone cheats, lies, steals etc. We couldn't buy anything at the gas stations such as snacks or sodas. Its house arrest with nonstop cult banter and workbook. I made a list of 15+ people who signed saying they haven't seen the psychiatrist even though some were there for over 30 days. You have to pee while being watched for drug test (good luck with anxiety disorders). My bladder was hurting because I had to give a test, but I couldn't go with staff watching me. We had a guest who gave a speech that was withdrawing as he spoke from heroin. If a treatment facility requires multiple visits. Than it isn't the patients fault, but the facility. I was having medicine horrible side effects and not a psychiatrist in site. All the nurse could do is offer essential oils. I begged to go to the hospital to stop the nonstop anxiety, all day leg shaking, constant fear so I stayed in my room and didn't socialize. I finally got to the hospital, but they discharged me. Never contacted my family. My phone was in there safe, and had to be mailed. I had no money. The hospital discharged me after 24 hours. I was alone in a big city, no phone, no money, no place to stay. The hospital doctor called my parents to tell them what the facility did. Burkwood lied and said I lied asking to go to the hospital because I wouldn't pee for the test, but before I left I gave them my sample and I was clean. Do yourself a favor. Go seek mental health care, and not AA\NA. Fix the mental health issues and symptoms, and youll fix your addiction. Addiction is just you trying to fix things without the proper tools. AA\NA meetings will never be the answer.

Where do I start...Checked into Burkwood on 09/25/2023 a shell of the person i once was for my 8th attempt at treatment a hopeless dope addict and the man who left 42 days later was almost unrecognizable as the same person. I am going to keep this short and to the point. This place saved my life! To anyone who has been to treatment before and failed to stay sober after I have an easy recipe for success i will lay out for you and if it worked for me it can work for anyone and here it is. Call burkwood make a plan, show up, Surrender(#1 biggest thing you have to do) and by that i mean just give in to the process and listen to what they are saying even when you want to question why just do what they are telling you they are not doing what their doing for any other reason then it flipping works, next is get involved and share with your peers and last but not least don't leave till they tell you your ready to and follow their recommendations its just that easy! The food at burkwood was amazing the staff was amazing and the accommodations overall were also amazing! Special thanks to Cheryl, Kelly M, Will, Kevin, Jake, Aaron and that's just a few of the people who made my recovery possible and as magical as it was!

This place holds a very special place in my heart. I was a client in 2015 and after a few years of recovery they decided to hire me. This place features a top notch staff filled with compassionate folks that are there to provide the necessary tools for navigating through recovery. I see awesome things happen here every day

Please take reviews with a grain of salt (even mine) as some may quickly jump to conclusions based on a story they don t have all the facts of in a Google review. Loved ones, please try to understand you may not get all the facts from the outside due to client rights and privacy concerns. To those who are considering Burkwood for treatment, feel free to read my short or long review and know there is hope.The short review:The staff are dedicated, go above and beyond, make the tough decisions behind the scenes that I personally didn t understand as a newly sober addict - yet it did more than save my life, it started my journey to finding my joy and helping me thrive. I had my moments of wanting to leave, but the 9th step promises are coming true in my life, partly because I stuck it out at Burkwood.The longer version - read for better insight into the reality of a treatment center:A year ago I would have hesitated to give Burkwood a 5 star review. I was a client in March of 2022 and this place has remained special to me since then.Was it all sunshine and roses? No, but it s treatment- where I had to give up my control to those who are clinically trained and qualified to save me from destruction. For instance, I m the girl who had nearly every client against her for a good 2 days over a misunderstanding, yet the staff worked with us clients to make sure we were all safe, sober, and learning how to handle these things when we walked out those doors.I easily could have hated this place, I easily could have blamed the staff. I chose to focus on the good. Which some days in there felt like nothing. The RAs give their all to get clients through the bad days, and to celebrate the good.One of the RAs sat and let me yell in tears about how much I hated being there, and simply listened. Listened with compassion and presented logical facts, which I desperately needed.Kelly takes a lot of guff as clinical director, and deserves credit for her resilience. She is committed to making Burkwood a place that changes lives and helps people keep their lives.Cheryl is the counselor who still cares, 18 months later, about how I m doing. If I m still sober, if I m happy. She opened my eyes to ways I had been operating in life that would lead me right back to addiction/ use. Cheryl gets clients to dig deep, and she is extremely passionate about her work.The nurse, Jodi, along with other staff, helped educate clients on the disease, ways to work on sobriety after graduating from Burkwood as well during time there.Very educational, engaged learning while incorporating the 12 steps, allowing us to experience outside meetings and explore tools to succeed rather than keep us stuck needing treatment centers for life.Google reviews, as important as they are, frankly suck for some industries because it s easier to vent about the frustrations immediately after experiencing the bad. Many who left and are thriving thanks to Burkwood didn t leave a review as to not share their name publicly.Ask questions. Make sure the facility you re considering is trained, qualified, and has dedicated staff. Call the facilities you re looking into, have a list of questions, compare apples to apples. Try to get a feel if it s a good fit as well as phone calls allow.My first experience at a treatment center left me worried I d be miserable for 30+ days. Then I got into Burkwood and learned there is a right fit for everyone if you need help to break the chains of addiction. I encourage you to find that right fit, Burkwood or not. If you re miserable, how do you expect those around you to respond?If you or someone you love is struggling or needs help, please know there is hope.
