The Meadows treatment center in Wickenburg, Arizona, has long been recognized as the nation’s premier program for treating the effects of trauma; alcohol, sex, and drug addiction; panic and anxiety disorders; post-traumatic stress; codependency; depression and bipolar disorder; and eating disorders. For more than 35 years, The Meadows has explored the underlying issues of client trauma, building an impeccable reputation for quality, integrity, and long-term recovery. We believe this is why more clinicians and professionals trust The Meadows than any other treatment program. Come see for yourself.
Many of our clients appreciate the serene Sonoran Desert environment, as well as our holistic approach to healing. Our “whole person” focus means that we look at all underlying issues that impact a person’s well-being. The Meadows’ program is supported by the nation’s top addiction and recovery experts, many of whom have aligned with us as Senior Fellows to provide direction, consultation, and training to The Meadows’ community. No other program has the likes of Pia Mellody or this team of experts; they work together to ensure that The Meadows’ Model is the most clinically comprehensive and nurturing program available today.

Thanks to our ongoing research on the effects of trauma on the brain, The Meadows provides cutting-edge treatment methods. We believe that successful treatment must combine powerful, unique methodologies that enable support, discovery, and healing. Each client comes with an individual story and experience; with courage, each seeks guidance and support from our staff members and treatment model.

Holistic and Wellness Counseling
The Meadows’ executive team, lead by CEO Jim Dredge, understands that a program’s effectiveness lies in its staff’s interactions with each and every client. “Because of this,” he states, “I believe that we have the most talented and professional staff in the business. Many of our staff have experienced portions of the issues that our clients are going through, and they understand and can identify with our clients’ concerns. I believe that this adds to the atmosphere of acceptance and respect that our clients feel when they arrive and during their entire stay with us. Our staff changes people’s lives.”
Our medical and clinical staff members demonstrate an uncanny attention to the needs of our clients, as well as exemplary professionalism and confidentiality, enabling you or your family member to focus on treatment without distraction.
Our team of experts further demonstrates its commitment to helping others by hosting various workshops throughout the country. Designed to be accessible and inclusive, these workshops allow our clinical professionals to continue to educate and train our clients. They also encourage professionals in the field to stay current through continued learning. During these workshops, professionals and clients interact with our expert staff members, discussing cutting-edge insights and developing tools to create happiness, self-respect, and empowerment. Workshops span a broad range of topics, including family-of-origin work, relational and addiction issues, couples work, grief workshops, and private family weeks. Other specialized workshops are available on request.
