Rigel Recovery Residential Services

Rigel Recovery Residential Services structures its residential program around an average stay of 60 to 90 days — a timeframe that distinguishes it from shorter-stay facilities and reflects a deliberate commitment to meaningful, sustained change. For people in recovery who need more than a brief intervention, this extended residential treatment model allows time to build the skills, habits, and insight that support life beyond treatment.

The 24-hour, seven-day-a-week operation means the center is available whenever a person is ready to begin. That consistency matters both for the individuals entering care and for the families supporting them. Residential treatment at Rigel is not a stopgap — it is a foundation for ongoing recovery.

One of the practical advantages Rigel offers is the ability to move between levels of care within the same organization. After completing a residential stay, individuals can transition into the outpatient program, maintaining clinical support while resuming responsibilities at home, work, or in the community. This continuity reduces the gap that often appears between residential discharge and real-world recovery.

Aftercare and peer support further extend that continuum. Rather than ending the relationship at discharge, Rigel builds post-treatment support into the program — an element especially important for alumni navigating early recovery in the community.

Rigel uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as its primary clinical method. CBT equips people in recovery with concrete tools: the ability to recognize unhelpful thinking patterns, interrupt automatic responses, and build new behaviors over time. Because these are transferable skills, the work done in residential treatment carries forward into outpatient care and beyond.

The center also treats Trauma and PTSD alongside substance use disorders — an acknowledgment that for many people, the two are deeply connected. Addressing both within the same treatment setting reduces the need for individuals to navigate multiple providers or delay trauma treatment until after substance use is resolved.

Rigel Recovery accepts men and women, including individuals entering treatment through court orders. The court-ordered population benefits from the center's structured residential model and the defined program length, which aligns well with the accountability requirements common in court-mandated recovery programs.

Financial access is a priority. Rigel accepts Medicaid, and for those without it, costs are determined on a sliding fee scale based on ability to pay. Located at 28407 State Route 7 in Marietta, Ohio, the center can be reached by email at [email protected] or through its website at rigelrecovery.org for anyone ready to take the next step toward residential or outpatient addiction treatment.
