Learn how Olympia House views addiction and our philosophy on how to successfully treat the disease.
The Olympia House philosophy is based upon the recovery model of treatment for chemical dependency.
Recovery from chemical dependency is possible with the active participation of the individual in developing a person-centered, individualized recovery plan that encompasses the whole person and integrates the latest in evidence-based treatment.
To be effective, treatment addresses the unique biological, psychological, social, and spiritual components that are interfering with the individual’s ability to achieve a life of meaning and satisfaction.
Unlike most other recovery centers, we know that everyone is different and that no one approach is adequate. We offer a wide array of treatment options that allows us to develop individualized treatment plans customized to the needs of each client. We also value the relationships individuals may have established with their physicians, psychotherapists and others and invite their ongoing participation.
It is essential that we get to know each client individually by working together to identify and explore personal goals, needs, hopes, concerns, and history through multiple assessments. From these collaborative sessions, we work with clients to create custom treatment plans that are tailored to each individual.
The average length of stay for clients enrolled in the Olympia House residential program is 28 days. During this time, residents become actively engaged in working a recovery program that they can then continue after graduating from our care and re-entering their lives.
Olympia House is committed to respecting each individual for their unique identity that allows for the expression of gender and sexual orientation. We recognize, honor, and celebrate the value of diversity in both our staff and our clients. This is reflected in our individualized approach to treatment that views individual differences as strengths.
Diversity represents the variety of experiences in a collective group. This includes cultural, familial, socioeconomic, educational, and religious backgrounds. We view diversity in any group as a powerful strength that offers new perspectives and greater understanding.
NOTE: Olympia House does not tolerate bigotry from its clients, staff, administrators or visitors.
