The Aviary Recovery Center, located in St. Louis, Missouri, is an alcohol and drug rehab that offers a full continuum of care designed to gently lead each person seeking treatment through the process from beginning to end.
The Aviary offers detox, residential treatment, intensive outpatient, and family programming.
Detox at The Aviary Recovery Center generally lasts for 5 – 7 days. The process begins with an exam and comprehensive health history conducted by a physician. Once the examination is complete, a detailed treatment plan is created and the detox can begin. Detoxification provides stabilization for adult men and women with substance use disorder. The length of detox and the method used varies depending on what is best for each person.
The residential program at The Aviary Recovery Center is based on a holistic lens that treats the whole person. Psychoeducational groups and classes are combined with traditional therapy, group therapy, and family therapy. Those who need a high level of structure and care due to being unable to successfully recover without continual monitoring and support, are primary candidates for residential treatment. Medications may be used, along with specialized treatment for those with trauma or unresolved emotional histories.
The intensive outpatient treatment program is best suited for someone who does not need a high level of accountability and structure to succeed in recovery. Normal daily routines such as school, work, and family responsibilities can be maintained. Treatment generally lasts for three hours at a time and is conducted 3 – 5 times each week. Topics at treatment include life skills, communication skills, relationship skill building, relapse prevention resiliency, and classes on addiction and family dynamics.
The family wellness programming at The Aviary allows family members to become engaged in the process of helping a loved one while they are in recovery. This program is designed to assist families in experiencing educational and positive experiences with their family member in recovery. Through a safe environment, deeper healing takes place.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.
Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.
The Family Wellness Program allows family members to become engaged in the process of helping and supporting their loved one. At The Aviary, they take the opportunity to create an experience that is safe, supportive, educational and positive for the family and loved ones of the alcoholic or addict. They take the time to provide education about communication, accountability and support groups.
In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.
Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a clinical approach to helping people with substance abuse issues and other conditions shift behavior in positive ways. It is more goal-oriented than traditional psychotherapy, as MI counselors directly attempt to get clients to consider making behavioral change (rather than wait for them to come to conclusions themselves). Its primary purpose is to resolve ambivalence and help clients become able to make healthy choices freely.
All patients with smoking histories are offered Nicotine Replacement Therapy—such as gum or patches—in order to control their craving for nicotine. Many find that the break from smoking helps them to feel better and recover physically during their stay. For those who are not ready to give up their tobacco use they offer scheduled outdoor smoking breaks throughout the day.
Nutrition therapy, aka medical nutrition therapy (MNT), is a way of treating physical, emotional, and medical conditions through diet. All meals during your stay will be provided and prepared on site by a dietary team, overseen by their chef that focuses on nutritional balance and diversity. If you have any dietary restrictions, please notify the staff immediately so that they can accommodate you appropriately. In addition to these mealtimes, you have access to healthy snack options that are provided. They focus on balance: caloric intake is a priority of their integrated whole health approach.
Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.
