ACCREDITED ADDICTION CARE

Your Path Out of Addiction Begins With RCA in Scottsdale
Substance use disorders affect millions of Americans, with nearly 1 in 6 struggling nationwide. In Arizona alone, more than 2,500 lives were lost to overdose between 2023 and 2024, even with recent declines in deaths. At Recovery Center for the Arts, we provide hope, healing, and a supportive Scottsdale community that helps individuals find lasting recovery through proven therapies and creative care.
Levels of Care
At RCA, we provide a full continuum of treatment options. For many, the journey begins with detox before moving into one of our structured programs. Our flexible levels of care include Partial Hospitalization, Intensive Outpatient, and Outpatient treatment. Every program blends evidence-based therapy with creative expression, giving you the tools to prevent relapse and build lasting recovery.
Detox is often the first step in treatment. RCA partners with trusted Arizona detox facilities to provide safe, medically supervised withdrawal from alcohol, opioids, benzodiazepines, and other substances. Once stabilized, participants transition seamlessly into our Scottsdale programs for ongoing care.
PHP is our most structured outpatient option, providing full-day therapy, medical monitoring, and expressive groups five days per week. With supportive housing available, PHP offers stability and intensive care while helping participants begin restoring balance in daily life.
IOP balances accountability with flexibility. Through multiple therapy sessions each week, participants strengthen coping skills, address triggers, and stay connected to recovery while continuing work, school, or family responsibilities.
OP provides ongoing counseling, relapse-prevention strategies, and supportive check-ins. It is ideal for those stepping down from higher levels of care or seeking consistent support to maintain sobriety and long-term recovery.
Addiction impacts more than the individual. It affects loved ones too. RCA integrates family counseling and trauma-informed therapy to repair relationships, uncover root causes, and strengthen recovery outcomes for lasting change.
RCA provides ongoing aftercare planning and alumni resources to help participants stay grounded in sobriety. With continued access to counseling, support groups, and community connections, we make sure each person has the tools for long-term recovery.
Do You Need Help?
It’s not always easy to know when substance use has crossed the line into needing treatment. Maybe you’ve told yourself you can stop anytime, or maybe loved ones have started to express concern. Some common signs include:
Needing more of a substance to feel the same effect
Struggling at work, school, or in relationships
Hiding, minimizing, or lying about substance use
Losing interest in passions or daily routines
Feeling anxious, depressed, or hopeless when not using
Experiencing withdrawal without alcohol or drugs
If these feel familiar, you are not alone. Reaching out for help does not mean you failed. It means you are ready to reclaim your health, your creativity, and your future. RCA’s Scottsdale treatment programs are here to meet you where you are and guide you toward lasting recovery.
Take the First Step TodayAddictions We Treat
Alcohol use disorder often builds quietly, then starts to affect health, relationships, and work. We use evidence-based therapy (CBT/DBT), relapse-prevention planning, and medication management to reduce cravings and stabilize recovery. Creative modalities like art and music help process emotions and rebuild routine.
Opioid use disorder (including prescription painkillers, heroin, and fentanyl) requires careful, compassionate care. We coordinate medical detox in Arizona, offer medication-assisted treatment (when clinically indicated), and provide structured counseling that targets triggers and high-risk moments. Expressive therapies support motivation and purpose in early recovery.
Cocaine can create a powerful cycle of stress, sleep loss, and cravings. Our program focuses on coping skills, craving management, and lifestyle rebuilding, plus creative outlets that reduce stress and support long-term change.
Meth use strains the nervous system and daily functioning. We emphasize structure, sleep and nutrition support, and skills training to stabilize thinking and mood, alongside art and music therapy to re-engage healthy routines. Ongoing outpatient care reinforces progress.
Benzodiazepine dependence needs a safe, gradual approach. We coordinate medically supervised taper/detox with trusted partners, then deliver therapy that addresses anxiety management, sleep strategies, and relapse prevention.
When cannabis use disrupts motivation, mood, or relationships, targeted support can help. We combine CBT, habit replacement plans, and creative expression to reduce reliance and restore balance in daily life.
