Treatment for dependence on opioids, including fentanyl and prescription opioids, and other drugs.
Integrated dual diagnosis care that addresses depression, trauma, family and relationship conflict and other concerns alongside substance use.
Our approach
Every stay begins with a clear picture of where you are and a plan built around you. Clinical therapy and 12-step principles work together through each part of your day.

Why residential care

In their words
If you want to get sober and you want to be happy while doing that and make good friends and be surrounded by a staff of caring professionals that know what they're doing, this is the place you should be.
A caring, nurturing, loving environment that helps someone rest back to who they've always been meant to be. Thank you, Harlow Gardens!
I felt heard & not judged. I have let go of whatever/whomever is not serving me. I feel I have gained the necessary tools to move forward in a positive way and not look back.
The staff, the food, the setting, he gushed about them. … There is help for the families. Weekly Zoom calls to offer support. … These people are doing it the right way!
Harlow Gardens is a facility that looks at the client as a whole living and breathing person, along with those who love and support them.
The experience went far beyond just being a facility; the staff there is truly exceptional. They bring a level of compassion and expertise that makes you feel safe and understood from day one, rather than just treated like a patient.
A very close friend of mine received life saving treatment from Harlow Gardens. The change I've seen in him since his stay here has been nothing short of a miracle. He is better than ever and we are all so so proud of him.
The staff really helped me change my mindset and gave me the tools I need to pursue sobriety.
My stay at Harlow Gardens was very pleasant. The staff and accommodations were excellent. They treated me with dignity and helped me get back on my feet. Mentally, emotionally, and physically. Highly recommend
