Recovery is not just about abstaining from substances—it’s about adopting sustainable habits that support long-term well-being for both partners. At Trinity Behavioral Health, our holistic approach encourages couples to rebuild their lives together, integrating healthy routines, emotional awareness, and mutual accountability. From nutrition and exercise to communication skills and self-care, every aspect of daily living is an opportunity to reinforce sobriety, strengthen relationships, and foster personal growth.
Together We Heal: Couples Stay, Room, and Recover Side by Side
One of the cornerstones of our program is accommodating couples in the same room and therapeutic milieu. When partners share living space throughout treatment, they:
-
Maintain mutual support. Waking up and winding down together fosters a sense of solidarity. Couples encourage one another to attend group sessions, practice coping strategies, and celebrate daily milestones.
-
Build shared routines. Meal times, exercise classes, mindfulness practices, and recreational activities become joint experiences. Establishing these rituals promotes consistency, which is essential for forming new, healthy habits.
-
Deepen emotional connection. Healing through withdrawal and therapy can be isolating. Rooming together offers immediate emotional comfort, reducing feelings of anxiety and loneliness while fostering vulnerability and trust.
By not separating couples, we uphold the principle that recovery is a team effort—two people working in concert to redefine their lifestyle together.
Dedicated Support: Socially Designated Couples Therapist
In addition to individual therapy and drug-and-alcohol counseling, every couple is paired with a specialized couples therapist. This professional:
-
Focuses on relational dynamics. Unlike individual counselors, the couples therapist examines patterns of communication, conflict resolution, and emotional intimacy between partners.
-
Guides joint therapy sessions. Through structured exercises and evidence-based approaches (such as Emotionally Focused Therapy), couples learn to express needs, listen empathetically, and negotiate challenges without substances.
-
Coordinates care plans. The couples therapist collaborates with each partner’s individual therapist to ensure that personal goals and relational goals align seamlessly.
This layered support structure empowers couples to rebuild trust and establish healthy boundaries—key lifestyle changes that underpin lasting recovery.
Comprehensive Coverage: PPO Insurance Plans Support Every Aspect
Financial stress can jeopardize the recovery process. At Trinity Behavioral Health, we partner with most PPO insurance plans to alleviate this burden. Coverage typically includes:
-
Residential stay and meals. Nutritious, chef-prepared meals that support physical health and recovery.
-
Medication management. Access to evidence-based medications, overseen by our medical team, to ease withdrawal and prevent relapse.
-
Therapy services. Individual, group, family, and couples therapy sessions designed to address mental health and relational issues.
-
Medical visits. Regular check-ups to monitor physical health and address any co-occurring conditions.
-
Recreational therapy. Fun sober activities—such as art workshops, yoga classes, and outdoor excursions—that teach positive leisure habits.
By ensuring that cost does not stand in the way of care, couples can focus wholeheartedly on recovery without financial distraction or surprise bills.
Embracing a Pet Friendly Environment
Studies show that interaction with animals reduces stress and promotes emotional regulation. Trinity Behavioral Health offers a pet friendly program that includes:
-
Scheduled visits with certified therapy animals.
-
Optional short-term stays for small, well-behaved pets under approved guidelines.
-
Workshops on animal-assisted activities that couples can integrate into their lifestyle post-treatment.
Incorporating animals into the healing process helps couples practice empathy, responsibility, and nurturing—skills that transfer directly into healthy relationship habits.
