Twelve Mile Recovery at Rodman Hall

About Twelve Mile Recovery at Rodman Hall

Twelve Mile Recovery at Rodman Hall is a CARF-accredited private residential addiction treatment program in St. Catharines, Ontario, set in a historic estate along the Twelve Mile Creek. They view addiction as a response to human suffering rather than a moral failing, and their person-first, evidence-based care addresses its physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual sides. They treat dependence on alcohol, cocaine, meth, opiates and fentanyl, benzodiazepines, and prescription drugs, with co-occurring mental health conditions handled by the same team in the same plan. Inpatient stays run six, nine, or twelve weeks. A fully virtual program is available for people who can’t leave home or who are stepping down after residency, and clients are asked to arrive with 72 hours of sobriety.

Each resident keeps the same counsellor from start to finish and receives a formal psychological assessment that shapes their plan. Days center on one-to-one therapy with master’s-level clinicians and small groups drawing on cognitive behavioural therapy, mindfulness-based stress reduction, motivational interviewing, trauma-focused work, and family therapy. Registered practical nurses provide daily care, and an addiction-medicine physician oversees each plan, with pharmacogenetic testing for every client to guide prescribing. Afternoons bring Brazilian jiu-jitsu, Muay Thai, boxing, yoga, breathwork, nutrition coaching, and supervised outings to practice budgeting and grocery shopping. With only 29 places across two residences, staff know clients by name, and graduates move into six weeks of virtual reintegration followed by twice-weekly aftercare sessions for life through a private alumni app, alongside family support and Indigenous programming.
