Veterans Addiction Treatment Centers

You Served, Now Let Us Serve You

At Wasatch Crest, we honor the commitment and sacrifice of veterans by providing specialized, trauma-informed addiction treatment. Our gender-specific residential programs and co-ed outpatient programs offer a structured, supportive environment where veterans can heal from substance use disorder and co-occurring conditions such as PTSD, depression, and anxiety. We understand the unique challenges faced by those who have served, and our evidence-based therapies are designed to address the deep connection between trauma and addiction.

The Reality of Addiction and Trauma Among Veterans

Comprehensive, Trauma-Informed Care for Veterans

Veterans are at a higher risk for PTSD, moral injury, and substance use disorders due to the demands and experiences of military service. Our treatment model integrates trauma care with addiction recovery, ensuring that both are treated simultaneously for lasting healing.

Our Treatment Modalities Include:

  • Gender-Specific Residential Treatment: Many veterans, especially women, find safety and support in our gender-specific environments, where they can process trauma and heal in a community designed for their unique recovery needs.
  • Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT): A structured, evidence-based approach that helps veterans reframe distressing thoughts related to trauma, such as guilt, blame, or shame. CPT supports individuals in challenging unhelpful beliefs that may keep them stuck in a cycle of pain and addiction.
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Helps veterans identify and change negative thought patterns linked to trauma and addiction.
  • 12-Step Facilitation & Peer Support Groups: Provides camaraderie and shared experiences in recovery.
  • Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT): Offers safe, evidence-based support for managing withdrawal and cravings.
  • Family Therapy & Support Groups: Helps veterans and their loved ones rebuild connections and navigate reintegration challenges.
  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): Teaches emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills.
  • Equine and Experiential Therapy: Outdoor activities such as hiking, equine therapy, and adventure-based outings mirror the teamwork and resilience familiar to veterans.

Accessible & Personalized Care

  • Accepts Veteran Insurance: As proud partners with the VA, we accept veteran health insurance to expand access to quality treatment. We coordinate closely with the VA to streamline the process for a smooth and timely entry into care.
