Located an hour from Montreal, Heritage Treatment Foundation offers residential addiction treatment with a non-12-Step philosophy. This intimate facility accepts just 12 clients at a time, allowing for personalized care within a comfortable cottage setting that promotes healing and relaxation. The center's approach combines evidence-based psychotherapy, pharmacotherapy when appropriate, and alternative therapies to address both addiction and underlying mental health concerns. Heritage's treatment model emphasizes positive psychology, viewing recovery as a process of becoming a happier, stronger person while achieving sobriety. Their therapeutic offerings include cognitive behavioral therapy, rational emotive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and cognitive bias modification, delivered through both individual and group sessions. For clients requiring medical support, the facility provides on-site detox and medication-assisted treatment options. The program integrates numerous holistic therapies, including yoga, meditation, massage, acupuncture, stress management, art therapy, and tai-chi. Residents also participate in recreational activities such as biking, hiking, kayaking, fishing, and local excursions that support overall wellbeing. Heritage prioritizes nutrition as a component of recovery, with meal plans developed by Professor Louise Thibault from McGill University's Human Nutrition department. The kitchen accommodates special dietary needs, including diabetic, vegan, vegetarian, and allergy-friendly options. Following primary treatment, clients benefit from a comprehensive aftercare program featuring strong alumni support through weekly meetings, helping to maintain long-term recovery success.
