More About Us

Valley Recovery Center is here to provide those dealing with addiction and their families with treatment, support, and guidance throughout the recovery process and long after. We offer a variety of treatment options to meet our patients’ needs, including 30, 60, and 90 day residential treatment. We also offer many aftercare services to provide patients with support once they finish residential treatment. Our treatment programs are tailored to the needs of each individual patient, and their treatment is overseen by our psychologists, psychiatrists, and counselors.

Everyone at Valley Recovery Center knows that they are part of a team working together to provide our patients with the care and support they need to achieve sobriety. We are all deeply interested in the health and the success of our patients, and we take tremendous pride in the work we do. It truly feels great to see our patients return to their families and communities and enjoy a lasting recovery.

Daria A.
This place was God-sent. I have always suffered from addiction and couldn't figure out what was wrong with me. When I stumbled across the one drug that completely sent me spiraling into my addiction, I stumbled upon VRC.

This place has helped me drastically. My time at VRC was filled with learning experiences about myself, addiction, and the 12-step program. I left with a new lease on life and with hope for the future. Thank you VRC!
