At 1st Step Behavioral Health, our substance abuse treatment approach is to meet each individual in their present moment and guide them along a journey through recovery. Some people experience relief or a sense of freedom when realizing they need help with substance abuse, but many will have complex ideas and feelings about confronting those problems. 1st Step Behavioral Health is a drug and alcohol treatment center dedicated to helping people on an individual basis, to discover the steps they will need to take in order to achieve a lasting change. If you or your loved one is suffering from addiction, or any co-occurring mental health conditions, please call us today.

Testimonials
"This is the best treatment facility. They really treat you like family they care about their clients and want the best for them this place taught me a lot and I’ll forever be grateful. If it wasn’t for them I probably wouldn’t be alive"
Alyssa B.
"This place is amazing!! For them it truly is about helping the addict get and stay clean. NOT about the money. Without them I would be dead or well on my way. I learned how to recover and live in recovery and so much more. I’ve made lifelong friends because we’ve all stayed clean. This place is just different on so many levels. I encourage anyone needing help to go to 1st Step. I beg you to go. You will be eternally grateful!"
