About Us
About Breakthrough Recovery Centre
At Breakthrough Recovery Centre, we provide private, residential addiction and mental health treatment in Ontario for individuals navigating substance use, behavioural addictions, and challenges with emotional regulation. We understand that addiction does not stem from a lack of willpower, but often develops as a response to emotional pain, trauma, chronic stress, and unmet needs.
Nestled steps away from shores of Georgian Bay, our setting is an intentional part of the healing process. The presence of the beach and surrounding shoreline offers more than beauty; it provides a powerful, therapeutic backdrop that naturally calms the nervous system. Water has a unique ability to regulate stress responses, support emotional grounding, and create space for reflection. When paired with structured clinical care, this environment helps clients slow down, reconnect with their bodies, and feel safe enough to begin meaningful change.
Our approach is holistic, trauma-informed, evidence-based, and deeply individualized. We focus on treating not only the addiction itself, but the underlying mental health concerns that fuel it such as trauma, anxiety, depression, and emotional dysregulation so recovery is sustainable and rooted in real understanding.
At Breakthrough, healing happens through connection. Our team offers professional care that is warm, grounded, and deeply human, blending clinical expertise with genuine compassion. We support long-term recovery by helping individuals build emotional regulation skills, deepen self-awareness, and rediscover a sense of stability, purpose, and hope for life beyond treatment.
Our Mission
At Breakthrough Recovery Centre, our mission is to support healing, growth, and lasting recovery through compassionate, client-centred care. Guided by our BREAKTHROUGH values, we create a safe and inclusive environment rooted in belonging, respect, and understanding. We are committed to empowering individuals to take ownership of their recovery, build resilience, and reconnect with hope while receiving care that honours their lived experience, dignity, and capacity for change.
Our mission is not simply to treat symptoms, but to walk alongside individuals as they heal, grow, and move forward with purpose.
Land Acknowledgement & Commitment
Breakthrough Recovery Centre respectfully acknowledges that we operate on the traditional territory of the Anishinaabe peoples, including the Ojibwe, Odawa, and Pottawatomi Nations. These land and waters have held healing, community, and knowledge long before our presence here.
We recognize that healing is deeply connected to place, relationship, and respect. As a recovery community in Wasaga Beach, we are committed to approaching our work with humility, cultural awareness, and ongoing learning. We honour Indigenous peoples past and present, and we strive to provide care that is inclusive, respectful, and grounded in dignity for all who seek support here.
