Meeting Students & Communities Where They Are

We believe that access to care shouldn't be a barrier to recovery. By embedding our clinical team directly within schools and community health settings, Roots Through Recovery removes obstacles and brings high-quality, trauma-informed treatment to the people who need it most — right where they live, learn, and grow.

Our Field-Based Services

Trauma-Informed Individual, Group & Family Therapy

Co-occurring SUD and mental health treatment using evidence-based, trauma-focused modalities tailored to each individual's needs — including group and family sessions.

Comprehensive Assessments & Intakes

Thorough clinical evaluations to identify each person's unique needs, including substance use history, mental health status, trauma exposure, and social determinants of health.

Health & Physicals / Primary Care Coordination

On-site health screenings and physicals with coordinated referrals to primary care providers, ensuring holistic health needs are met alongside behavioral health services.

Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)

FDA-approved medications combined with counseling and behavioral therapies, providing a whole-patient approach to the treatment of substance use disorders.

Psychiatric Evaluation & Medication Management

Licensed psychiatric providers conduct evaluations and manage ongoing medication needs, ensuring safe and effective pharmacological support for mental health conditions.

Psychological Testing

Comprehensive psychological assessments to diagnose learning disabilities, cognitive functioning, personality disorders, and other conditions that inform individualized treatment planning.

Case Management

Dedicated case managers connect individuals with community resources, coordinate care between providers, and help navigate systems to support lasting recovery and stability.

Removing Barriers to Care

Too many students and community members go without the mental health and substance use support they need — not because services don't exist, but because getting to those services is the hardest part. Transportation, stigma, scheduling conflicts, and lack of awareness keep people from seeking help.

By meeting our community on their own turf, Roots Through Recovery eliminates these barriers and creates a pathway to treatment that feels safe, familiar, and accessible.

“I am so grateful to be an alumni of Roots. Roots took me from my darkest of places, to the brightest and most beautiful part of life I've ever lived. They genuinely care about their clients. You will not be a number or a paycheck here. After discharging in February, I still receive help and words of wisdom whenever needed. Roots helped me battle things I'd been struggling with for over 14 years and finally put them behind me. I love roots with all my heart, and always will.”
