Building a Sound Recovery Foundation
The program is individualized and rooted in 12 steps with a minimum stay of 90 days. This includes a week orientation or probation period and eleven weeks of inpatient residential care. During this period, you’ll attend 12-Step Alcoholics Anonymous meetings and participate in intense 12-Step work and AM & PM devotions. These meetings foster a sense of belonging and community support and help you build strong support networks. You’ll learn an easy and effective way to work through the 12 steps. You’ll earn a privileged status that gives you more freedom on site as you achieve exemplary recovery milestones.
You’ll enjoy the support and encouragement of peers and staff’s guidance. What I think you’ll especially enjoy about this program is that it integrates many recreational and fun activities. Residents enjoy frequent trips to Broadway shows, concerts, and movies as well as gardens and petting zoos. This aims to ensure you have a great time in recovery at no extra cost. Weekly visits from loved ones are supported. This enables the family to navigate recovery as a single unit. Additional time may be granted for inpatient recovery if necessary.
Sober Living Available
Residents who complete up to 120 days of inpatient recovery are eligible for the sober living program. This aims to equip you with independent living skills that facilitate smooth reentry into the community. You’ll learn personal responsibility and accountability among a thriving and supportive community of peers. You’re encouraged to seek employment and attend external AA meetings to build the confidence necessary to maintain sobriety. You’re mandated to regularly check-ins with staff, attend meetings onsite and submit work hours. This fosters accountability. Most residents elect to remain in the community and help newcomers while working or attending college upon completing the program. Some join the facility as staff.

Charleston Recovery Center changed my life in a way I didn’t even know was possible. I came in broken, scared, and honestly unsure if I’d ever feel normal again. This place didn’t just help me get sober — it gave me myself back.
The staff here truly care. Not the fake “clock in and clock out” kind of care… I mean the kind where they learn your story, sit with you on your worst days, and remind you that you’re worth fighting for even when you can’t see it. The people I met in this program became like family. There’s something about being surrounded by others walking through the same fire that makes you feel understood in a way the outside world can’t.
I laughed, cried, healed, and grew more here in 90 days than I have in years. This place taught me how to live again — how to have hope, how to trust, and how to wake up feeling proud of myself.
If you’re struggling and you’re scared to take that first step… do it. This place is the real deal. I’m leaving with clarity, confidence, and a second chance at life. I’ll forever be grateful.
CRC changed my life. I probably would not be alive if it wasn’t for my 90 days here. I recommend the CRC to anyone who needs help with addiction. The staff here will forever be in my heart.

Congratulations on 6 months sobriety Jason!! We are all so happy you’re part of our recovery family!
I can never thank Jennifer, the staff, Alex Allen, Dillon’s mentors and friends at Charleston Recovery Center and God enough for saving my son’s life. For 12+ years, and thousands of hours of me spending day after day, and night after night staying awake to watch him, making sure he was breathing, I’d accepted the fact that it was likely we would celebrate his life at his funeral, and now we get to celebrate his life, his future and his sobriety in just 6 more days. Thank you Charleston Recovery Center for this most precious and priceless gift! I’ve always known Dillon has a servant’s heart, and it filled mine on my last visit hearing other residents speak about how much Dillon has and continues to help them on their recovery journey. I hope that if you or a loved one suffer with addiction that you’ll reach out to Charleston Recovery Center for help. It’s hard to put into words, but upon arrival and everyday thereafter, you’ll immediately feel the love, empathy, understanding, support and encouragement from some of the best people you’ll ever meet, your recovery family. You deserve to have the happiness and joy you’ll find on the other side of addiction.
Forever grateful,

Other Forms of Payment
Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.
Addiction Treatments
Levels of Care
Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements. Linden Oaks' Residential Stay Program offers additional support for those who may benefit from a structured living environment. A patient's stay may vary from a few days to 30 days ago. The program includes group, family and individual counseling.
Persons engaged in a 12 step program regularly attend group meetings in their communities, though online sessions are becoming increasingly popular. 12 step recovery is rooted in spiritual principles that enable participants to address the root causes of addiction and to foster self-awareness, compassion, acceptance, and accountability. Peer sponsors support participants as they work through the steps of recovery. Most programs are non-denominational, but specialized formats, including the faith-based Celebrate Recovery! format, are available.
Sober Living Houses (SLHs), aka sober homes or halfway houses, are safe, substance-free, supportive living facilities for those recovering from substance abuse. Ideal for those who've just been through inpatient or outpatient treatment, SLHs are supervised environments with rules that support sobriety, such as curfews, shared chores, and therapeutic meetings. Residents are also often trained on life skills and coping skills to make it easier to transition into society. SLHs also provide a strong sense of community that can lead to the kind of deep and lasting connections with other sober individuals that supports a new, healthy lifestyle.
Programs
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.
Clinical Services
Group therapy participants in South Carolina learn practical conflict resolution skills they can practice within the group. These skills are essential for improving your relationships and reducing stress outside rehabilitation. Both of these factors are crucial to help maintain your recovery.
The goal of all family therapy sessions is to support their loved one's recovery effectively by learning new and healthy communication skills as well as ways of managing stress and resolving conflicts. This helps improve interactions and addresses underlying issues within the family that often influence recovery.
Men and women in South Carolina undergoing individual therapy work closely with their therapist to address the personal challenges and lifestyle changes that can help address addiction triggers. You have a unique situation and your therapist will spend time helping you develop healthy coping strategies so you can work toward achieving and maintaining sobriety.
