About Astra Recovery Centers LLC

Ascension Center for Recovery (listed here as Astra Recovery Centers LLC) is a residential addiction treatment program in Bardstown, Kentucky, serving adults 18 and older who are dealing with substance use alongside co-occurring mental health conditions. They take a whole-person approach that pairs psychiatric care with structured recovery work, aiming to address the issues underneath drug and alcohol use rather than the substance use alone. Care is organized into a short-term residential stay with withdrawal management when needed and a longer residential program of roughly four to six weeks, and partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient options are also mentioned. They accept Kentucky Medicaid and commercial insurance, and they welcome people from outside the area as well as those who are court-ordered into treatment.

Clinical work includes weekly individual and group psychotherapy, family therapy sessions, daily cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior therapy, psychological testing, and crisis counseling. Weekly psychiatric sessions, psychotropic medication management, and medication-assisted treatment are available, and medical staff handle intake evaluations, chronic and acute health problems, comfort care during withdrawal, and basic dental care. Residents follow an NA/AA or Celebrate Recovery curriculum, with spiritual classes, exercise, and drug and alcohol education built into the schedule. A strong case management component helps with legal issues, housing, state benefit enrollment, and financial aid, and discharge planning connects people to outside providers for continued support after they leave.
