About Burning Tree Lodge
Burning Tree Lodge is committed to providing compassionate care for those struggling with addiction and co-occurring mental health disorders.
We provide high quality short-term treatment that’s supported by a long-term plan for lasting recovery.

A Highly Effective Short-Term Inpatient Program
Burning Tree Lodge offers an intensive, short-term inpatient program that delivers comprehensive addiction treatment in a condensed time frame. We use an evidence-based approach that combines therapeutic treatments with highly-personalized care, allowing our clients to make significant progress without extended time away from their lives.
Our program offers a focused, intensive treatment for individuals that may be unable to commit to comprehensive long-term residential treatment. In our experience, we’ve found that our concentrated approach can effectively initiate and support lasting recovery for many individuals.
“Burning Tree Lodge supports a message of compassion, caring, and support that is seen for our clients and staff.”

Offering a Different Approach to Recovery
Since our establishment in 2005, we’ve practiced a unique approach that sets us apart from other addiction treatment programs. We integrate Mindfulness in Recovery® with 12-step modalities, creating a powerful, comprehensive treatment model.
This combination allows us to address both substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health challenges, recognizing that addiction often doesn’t exist in isolation.
We’ve found that our approach not only helps individuals overcome their addiction, but also develops the mental resilience and coping strategies necessary for long-term wellness.
This doesn’t just improve recovery outcomes over the long-term, but also equips our clients with new skills to engage in a meaningful life beyond sobriety.

Our Vision
Our vision as a clinical team is to educate our clients on the root causes of their problems: substance use disorders, mental health issues, and behavioral issues, as well as the solutions for these conditions. We aim to help our clients discover and connect with their core values while being guided by our own core values of love, kindness, compassion, honesty, dignity, and excellence.
We believe that our program will help our clients achieve a life that is more authentic, balanced, and aligned with their core values. By fostering this connection between values and actions, we help individuals not just achieve sobriety, but also find true fulfillment in recovery.
Our Core Values
We believe that discovering and nurturing core values are an integral part of creating an environment where healing and growth can flourish. These values inform every aspect of our program, from how we interact with our clients to the therapies we offer.
Our Mission Statement
At Burning Tree Lodge, our mission is to provide individualized, supportive, nonjudgmental, and compassionate care to those who suffer from substance use disorders and other mental health and behavioral issues.
We’re committed to treating our clients’ underlying core problems, helping them connect with their values, and facilitating healing on mental, emotional, behavioral, and spiritual levels.
Treatment Goals & Objectives
To fulfill our vision and mission, we’ve established several key goals for our inpatient program:
- Create an Environment for Growth: Burning Tree Lodge offers a safe, caring environment for our clients to heal, gain self-insight, and connect with their core values.
- Establish the Recovery Journey: Our team aims to guide clients in practicing mindfulness while initiating the 12-step program, and show how these two key approaches complement one another.
- Provide Evidence-Based Therapies: We leverage several evidence-based therapies like CBT and EMDR to help clients develop self awareness, process trauma, and engage in behaviors aligned with their own core values.
- Support Emotional & Spiritual Healing: We work to assist clients in healing the mental, emotional, and spiritual scars left by addiction.
- Align Actions With Values: Recognizing the inconsistencies between personal values and our thoughts, behaviors, and actions is a critical piece of recovery.
- Prepare for Long-Term Recovery: We create individualized treatment programs that extend into discharge and aftercare planning to give our clients and their families the best possible chance at sustaining their new-found sobriety.
