Redefine Your Life With Knowledgeable Clinicians At Your Side

We help you to achieve successful long-lasting recovery by understanding your needs and serving them directly. Once you’ve completed a brief introductory call, a Sandstone clinician will take a deeper dive into who you are and recommend the right level of care for what you need.

  • A 15-minute meeting with your family to get a full perspective
  • A one-on-one comprehensive assessment with you
  • Evidence-based screening on drug use, alcohol use, or trauma
  • Age-appropriate questions that reveal challenges and the life you desire

At Sandstone Care you’ll have the advocacy you need to rewrite your story with an empathetic and experienced team at your side.

Our Clients Experience Reduced Levels of Anxiety and Depression

At Sandstone Care, we know disorders like anxiety and depression can have a profound impact on one’s ability to enjoy life. That’s why our treatment programming addresses both addiction and mental health challenges.

In a recent study of people who completed treatment with us, the group reported a 57% decrease in anxiety symptoms. The same group also experienced a 78% decrease in symptoms of depression.

These are life changing numbers for our alumni. And for those experiencing addiction, they can be the difference between relapse and lasting recovery.
