Our Approach

Alpine Treatment Services understands the fundamental difference between obtaining a new skill and mastering that skill. It is our belief that individuals need to have a testing ground where they cannot only learn such tools, but also have the ability to apply them in a real way, in the real world, while continuing to be held accountable. Alpine Treatment Services has developed a program that encompasses just that.

Effective Lasting Results

Our Program was designed to afford individuals the opportunity to exercise their agency. With Alpine Treatment Services, individuals can choose for themselves. In the long run, our clients find themselves succeeding in the real world because they were able to face it prior to leaving treatment.

Inspiration and Vision

“I have seen people come to our program broken, down-trodden, and hopeless. I believe in what we do; I know that this program changes lives. I have been honored to be a part of this great work, and I still become excited when I see someone turn their life around and choose for themselves a better path.“

– Jake Shoff, Vice President/CEO

“I believe in what we do. I know our program works; I have seen it first hand. I am continuously in awe as I witness our clients succeed, reach or exceed their goals, and re-establish precious relationships with those they love. As an individual begins the rebuilding process, it’s inspiring to watch their lives transform as they regain hope. I consider it an honor and privilege to be a part of their journey.”

– Justin Makin, Founder/President

A Three Phase System

We have taken the core elements and key components of proven successful addiction recovery and created a world class addiction treatment program, including: Detox, Residential Inpatient Treatment, Residential Transitional Care and Aftercare.

Detox

Within our detox, individuals are able to begin the healing process. We are a social detox, not a medical, where our professional clinical and medical staff oversee the entire detox process. Our holistic approach entangles clinical, medical and spiritual interventions.

Phase One: Residential Inpatient Care

The Chateau is a dynamic residential treatment program that offers intensive inpatient addiction treatment. Our Program encompasses a strong therapeutic component, including intensive individual and group therapy processes, a dynamic Program that enables individuals the opportunity to gain the necessary skills and tools needed for a lifetime of sobriety.

Phase Two: Residential Transitional Care

The Joshua House and The Steele House are in beautiful chalets on the same campus as The Chateau. They offer a perfect testing ground as individuals transition from the Chateau. Our residential transitional care is a dynamic program that offers a home-like setting where individuals gain the strength and knowledge to maintain an addiction-free lifestyle on their own, while building skills to assimilate back into normal life.

Phase Three: Aftercare

Individuals are afforded the opportunity to live independently and return to our facilities for screening, analysis and weekly individual group sessions with access to comprehensive maintenance programs. Individuals feel comfortable working with the same team that has been by their side since the beginning.
