Residential Addiction Treatment Program

Addiction way out sign
Recovery written on scrabble pieces
De Novo’s 35-day, accredited Residential Addiction Treatment Program is focused on treating individuals with substance use disorders. Our programming uses evidence-informed practices, incorporates addiction research from within Ontario’s Construction and Building Trades, and is based on the belief that abstinence is the goal of treatment. De Novo promotes a 12 Step approach to recovery combined with other proven treatment modalities such as cognitive behavioural therapy, solution focused therapy, motivational interviewing, person-centered therapy, and the stages of change model. Individuals participating in the treatment program engage in educational groups, relapse prevention, one-on-one counselling sessions with our qualified clinicians and other optional programming.  Though ‘non-medical’, De Novo does provide access to nursing and medical supportive health care services.

Upon completion of the program, clients are encouraged to continue participating in forms of continuing care which could include aftercare programs, 12 Step programs, and additional or ongoing counselling supports. Give us a call to learn more.

A Word From Our Graduates

“De Novo means ‘a new beginning’, the right motto for me and for others – a new beginning can make the difference between life and death. God bless De Novo for its help.”

“At the age of 52, I didn’t know where to turn, so I contacted my union and they suggested that De Novo could help. De Novo got me started on the road to recovery. It saved my life!”

“Alcohol and cocaine ruined my job and my marriage – because of De Novo, I have a better, more accepting outlook on life. De Novo gave me the tools I use everyday to live life sober.”

“I showed up at De Novo guilt ridden, scared, and desperate – but there was this place where everyone was so compassionate and non-judgmental. The loving, caring atmosphere there started my spiritual healing. I started working the steps and I haven’t stopped! It’s been amazing.”
