Steps to Begin Your Recovery Rehab Admission Process
Initial Inquiry
A Safe First Conversation
Admissions begin with a confidential inquiry by phone, email, or secure online form.
Individuals, families, and referring clinicians are all welcome to reach out.
During this first conversation, our admissions team will:
- Listen carefully to the reason you are seeking support
- Provide a clear overview of our residential programs and therapeutic approach
- Answer practical questions about treatment structure, length of stay, and next steps
There is no pressure to commit. This conversation is about understanding your needs and exploring whether Breakthrough may be an appropriate and supportive fit.
Confidential Clinical Assessment
Understanding the Whole Person
If treatment appears appropriate, a confidential clinical assessment is scheduled with a qualified professional.
This assessment helps us understand:
- Substance use or behavioural patterns
- Co-occurring mental health concerns, such as anxiety, depression, trauma, burnout, or emotional dysregulation
- Medical history and current medications
- Psychosocial factors, relationships, and daily functioning
The purpose of this assessment is to ensure safety, appropriateness, and individualized care not diagnosis for its own sake. We take a whole-person, trauma-informed view, recognizing how stress and lived experience shape coping patterns.
Personalized Treatment Recommendation
Care Designed Around You
Based on the assessment and screening process, our clinical team develops a personalized treatment recommendation.
This may include:
- Residential substance use treatment
- Behavioural addictions treatment
- Integrated mental health and psychiatric support
- Trauma-informed therapy and emotional regulation work
Recommendations are discussed openly and transparently, allowing individuals and families to understand the clinical rationale, level of care, and structure of treatment being recommended.
