Addiction Recovery

The whole-person approach to addiction recovery

Addiction is a complex disorder that affects the whole person. 

We deliver an effective approach to addiction recovery which is responsive, comprehensive, and collaborative. Our Recovery Community program adheres to the evidence based Therapeutic Community model, which utilizes a whole-person approach that emphasizes lifestyle change and development.

At Lakeview residents can learn and develop healthy behaviours in a safe and structured environment, with the support of experienced recovery professionals and peers.

Our program is designed to improve residents’ health and well-being while minimizing the risk of relapse. Our community will help develop meaningful relationships, social and vocational skills and facilitate a transition to a healthier lifestyle and sustained recovery.

Helping Heal Families

At Lakeview, we recognize the importance of family and loved ones.

Alongside our residents, we keep families up to date on their loved one's progress.

Family members are invited to join our get togethers and activity days, such as Christmas celebrations and Halloween trick-or-treat at Lakeview.

Once a resident has settled in, there are ample opportunities for weekend visits and video/phone calls throughout the week. We also have a dedicated family room and extensive gardens where children can play and explore.

Inclusive Support

Lakeview Recovery Community is committed to ensuring equity of access to people from across the province

We are an inclusive community for men over the age of 18.

Each resident welcomed into Lakeview will have their individual needs assessed to ensure a program tailored to their whole person.

Lakeview is designed with accessible and psychologically informed spaces.

Our staff and programming promote cultural awareness, ensuring we are sensitive and responsive to the diverse needs of our residents.
