Foothills at Red Oak Recovery serves boys, ages 14-17, with a residential adolescent treatment program that provides gender separate, developmentally specific, evidence-based clinical care for clients struggling with substance use, mental health issues, and trauma. Located between Asheville and Charlotte, NC, Foothills is located in a beautiful home-like environment on a 94-acre working horse farm. This past April, Foothills at Red Oak Recovery celebrated their two-year anniversary.

At Foothills, clients work with Master’s level, dually licensed (clinical additions and mental health) clinicians and receive a minimum of 30 hours of individualized clinical care per week to focus on holistic healing and treating the whole person by putting clients’ long-term health and wellness at the front of treatment planning. Foothills provides trauma-informed care, social and emotional development, academic support, experiential activities, recreation, and life skills. With a unique Lifestyle Medicine approach, Foothills supports the physical, mental, emotional, and social wellbeing of clients.

Utilizing an emotionally focused family program, families are better able to understand their own family dynamics while also strengthening their relationships and moving towards a future of recovery. This programming is directly related to the value that Foothills places on serving the entire family system as it is an imperative component in moving forward in their lives and achieving sustainable recovery and healing.

“We are grateful to have been of service to clients and families, and we look forward to continuing the important work that we do with this age group,” says Jack Kline, MS, LPCS, LCAS, CCS, CTT-2, MAC, President and Founder of Red Oak Recovery® programs.
