About Red Oak Recovery

Red Oak Recovery provides substance abuse and co-occurring mental health treatment exclusively for men in Leicester, North Carolina. Guests have a tranquil campus to focus on recovery and a solid foundation for rebuilding. They cater to the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects of healing. They may offer medication assisted treatment to help men struggling with opioid or alcohol addiction, which uses FDA approved medications that help lessen withdrawals and reduce drug cravings.

One notable thing about this program is their focus on holistic methods of treatment to complement the usual evidence based therapy. With their sprawling campus, they use the outdoor areas for equine therapy and adventure therapy, where men can learn teamwork and healthy communication methods. This also provides a non traditional environment that can make it easier to share emotions and overcome trauma.

The team understands that co occurring mental health conditions like depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder often accompany addiction. They address these underlying causes to help men pinpoint causes and work through them for successful long term sobriety.

The clinical team at Red Oak Recovery concentrates on helping men change in an environment with opportunities for learning deeper connections and having a fresh start for recovery. Located in the spacious, scenic Blue Ridge Mountains, men have the perfect, peaceful setting to work on sobriety. You can experience options like yoga therapy outside with a mountain view.

The program is run by clinicians rather than business leaders, so they understand what it takes to help you overcome addiction for good. They provide not only a treatment center, but a sanctuary for men to get the tools and resources necessary to live sober. The program is LGBTQ+-friendly, and they are allies of the non-binary community. The goal is to support recovery and help guests find growth and healing.

This place genuinely saved my life. I can t recommend it enough if you or a loved one are struggling with substance abuse. Every member of the staff was caring, compassionate, and supportive to me during my time at Red Oak. My family and I are forever grateful for Red Oak and all that it has given to us.

This place changed my life. Through the staff and the higher ups, all the way from the top to bottom. This place got me sober for the long term. They are really good at keeping up with their clients after they depart from treatment. Big shoutout to Spencer Haring for the constant communication and support aftercare.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

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.
intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient
Intensive outpatient programs (IOP) evolve with clients' changing needs and are often well-suited for clients exiting inpatient rehab and those at an increased relapse risk. These programs typically involve between nine and 20 hours of treatment weekly, with the intensity and frequency of care decreasing as clients stabilize. Most intensive outpatient rehabs integrate a variety of treatment modalities to maintain a high level of individualized care. Services generally include counseling, recovery education, and medication assisted treatment (MAT).
12-step icon12-Step
12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).
partial-hospitalization iconPartial Hospitalization Program
A partial hospitalization program (PHP) is a short-term form of intensive rehab, usually for those with acute symptoms that are hard to manage but don’t require 24-hour care. PHPs have structured programming (i.e. individual and/or group therapy), and usually meet 3-5 days a week for around 6 hours (i.e. 9am-3m). Some PHPs are residential (patients sleep on site) and some are not, so patients sleep at home. PHPs can last from 1-6 months, and some offer transportation and meals.
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.

Treatments

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

There are many types of drug rehab in North Carolina. To receive treatment for addiction, you can choose from many inpatient and outpatient programs. Often, participants start with detox and work through a full continuum of care that continues with ongoing support for long-term recovery.

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.

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.

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Programs

young-adult-program thumbnail image
Young Adult Program
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.

Clinical Services

Clients who receive cognitive behavioral therapy in North Carolina typically attend five to 20 sessions. During this time, they work with their therapist to learn healthier patterns of thinking, which can help them change their behavior related to substance use.

Counseling that applies dialectical behavior therapy teaches you coping skills to apply to your daily life. The focus is on intense emotions and developing coping mechanisms to manage them. Therapy sessions are a series of teaching lessons that help you develop these coping skills.

Men and women enjoy a supportive environment within group therapy sessions for drug and alcohol addiction treatment. You can share your experiences and build connections with your peers while receiving encouragement from individuals who have faced similar challenges.

You usually develop a strong bond with your therapist during individual therapy sessions. This helps you explore the underlying causes of your substance use in a safe and nonjudgmental environment. Therapists help you develop effective coping strategies you can use in the community and improve your self awareness so you understand your addiction triggers.

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.

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

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.

It's disappointing to see this place still exists. Absolutely a teen trauma mill. They just want to take your money. Run.

I hear such good things about this place, not only that but I know people who have come from this program and it has completely transformed their life. I m so grateful to know about this place. Without a doubt I will be recommending this to anyone I know who is struggling. They provide support mentally, physically, spiritually, and emotionally. They have after care plans to continue checking up on prior clients and/or alumni. It is very well organized and ran! I would ve loved to experience it myself. Nothing but good things to say about this place!

I didn't know where to begin and what questions to ask when looking for a place for my son to go. The photos are what prompted me to check out Red Oak and I am glad that I called. The person I spoke with over the phone was very patient with me and answered all of my questions. Even though my son did not end up going into a recovery program, I just wanted to post this review to express my gratitude about the compassionate admissions staff for breaking the ice and helping me.

It's no wonder so many people come to Asheville for recovery. It's a beautiful place to find yourself and start a new chapter. I am very thankful to Red Oak for providing a comfortable place for me. The staff made the biggest difference for me. I used to keep everything to myself and the staff helped me feel more comfortable to be honest with myself and other people in my life.
