Set in the Colorado wilderness, Spero Recovery Center offers residential treatment for men with addiction and co-occurring mental health conditions. They believe clients get the best results in recovery when they feel like contributing members of a tight community. In addition to clinical and therapeutic guidance, Spero Recovery Center has a strong 12-Step focus and connects clients to a sponsor as part of their program. Their residential program varies from 30-90 days, followed by aftercare and joining their alumni network. As a nonprofit, they offer affordable pricing and scholarship opportunities, as well as payment plan options; Spero does not take insurance for its inpatient program. Spero’s gender-specific programming allows recovery to be tailored to men’s needs and perspectives. They teach clients how to be honest with one another and how to hold each other accountable as part of a team. Clients work through the 12 Steps during their residential stay. Men leave treatment at Step 9 and work through Steps 10-12 with their sponsor and others in 12-Step programs. With oversight from licensed full-time clinicians and substance abuse counselors, men are given the opportunity to evaluate past behaviors, repair relationships, and begin a life free from substances. At Spero Recovery Center, men will have the opportunity to participate in group meetings, experiential therapies, and in the community. Their program is led by their clinical director, who has over 2 decades experience. Spero Recovery Center can help clients address co-occurring mental health conditions like anxiety, depression, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and personality disorders. Their group therapy and wilderness therapy can help manage and overcome symptoms of mental health disorders. Spero’s program does not have therapists, so if a client requests or needs therapy, Spero will provide connections to offsite therapists. After residential treatment, men can begin aftercare and join Spero Recovery Center’s strong alumni program. Individualized aftercare plans help each client navigate life in early recovery outside the program, and help maintain motivation and momentum with daily mindfulness and self-care. As part of their aftercare program, men can attend peer meetings and workshops on recovery topics, and learn relapse prevention techniques. Alumni are encouraged to stay active in the Spero Recovery Center community and have indefinite access to their recovery resources. Their alumni program emphasizes service, since individuals in recovery who help others through the process are more likely to gain long-term recovery. Located in Evergreen, CO, Spero Recovery Center offers a special space to heal. Their facility has 16 square miles of trails and parks, 2 trailheads, and an on-site woodworking shop. Men can enjoy hiking, rock climbing, skiing, snowshoeing, nature walks, canoeing, kayaking, and fishing at nearby Evergreen Lake. Guest speakers and specialists come on-site to teach clients meditation, yoga, and cooking classes. Room and board in Spero’s nice homes, including all meals, are included in the program.
