We are IHS. This is our story.

We are a women-owned intensive outpatient wellness recovery center. IHS was born from the pain of watching our loved ones struggle for decades with addiction, mental health, and ultimate loss. Based on our experiences in these market segments and using The IHS APPROACH (™) to heal our own chronic health problems, we see the essential need to do more than solely rely on traditional treatment techniques. We believe it’s imperative to adopt a holistic person-centered approach for substance use and mental health, expand treatment options for clients, and provide them with long-term wrap-around support. We focus on improving the mind, body, and spirit because these areas of health are all connected. This means that disease in one area will affect the others. 

Self-medication with drugs and alcohol is a common response to various issues, including co-occurring disorders like depression. This behavior often arises from a desire to cope with emotional pain or mental health challenges. However, it can lead to a deeper disconnect between the mind, body, and spirit, exacerbating the underlying issues rather than resolving them.
