Our retreat treatment center offers a peaceful sanctuary for those struggling with addiction, trauma, anxiety, depression, and other emotional challenges. Set amidst a pristine 400-acre sanctuary, this luxurious retreat provides a comprehensive, holistic approach to mental health and well-being, focusing on deep psychological healing and personal transformation.

The Rippling Waters Experience: Where Healing Meets Nature

When seeking recovery, it’s important to find a place that not only offers treatments but also a setting that promotes peace, relaxation, and reconnection with oneself. Rippling Waters Retreat Treatment Center provides just that. Located on a private property with a 12-acre lake and miles of hiking trails, our retreat center is surrounded by majestic trees, fresh air, and the tranquility of nature. The natural surroundings are more than just beautiful scenery—they play a vital role in our holistic healing approach, supporting emotional and physical well-being.

Our center is equipped with luxurious accommodations and a state-of-the-art treatment facility designed to provide a safe, comfortable environment where individuals can fully immerse themselves in the healing process. We focus on providing personal attention, with a maximum of ten residents in our Estate House, ensuring each individual receives the support and care they need. The intimate setting of our retreat allows for deeper connections with peers, greater individualized attention from our experienced therapists, and an environment conducive to profound healing and self-discovery.

Tailored Therapy Programs for Every Individual

At Rippling Waters, we understand that no two people are the same. Every person comes with unique challenges, experiences, and needs. That’s why we design personalized treatment plans for each of our guests. Our multi-faceted approach includes a combination of therapeutic modalities that target both the mind and body, allowing for a comprehensive recovery experience.

One of the cornerstone therapies at Rippling Waters is Equine Therapy, where individuals engage with our majestic Friesian horses in a safe and supportive environment. Equine therapy is known to foster emotional awareness, empathy, and a deeper connection to one's feelings. It provides individuals with an opportunity to explore their emotions and gain insight into their personal struggles, making it a powerful tool for healing. Our expansive property includes upscale stables, indoor and outdoor horse arenas, and scenic trails, creating an ideal setting for this transformative therapy.

Ecotherapy is another key part of our holistic approach, which encourages individuals to connect with nature. Research has shown that spending time in natural environments has significant therapeutic benefits, helping to reduce stress, improve mental clarity, and enhance overall well-being. Rippling Waters takes full advantage of its pristine natural surroundings to help guests reconnect with the earth, promoting healing through outdoor activities like hiking, meditation, and mindfulness practices.

In addition to Equine Therapy and Ecotherapy, our retreat treatment center offers a range of psychotherapeutic modalities including Depth Psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), and Brain Spotting. These therapies work together to address the root causes of emotional struggles such as trauma, addiction, depression, and anxiety, helping individuals develop healthier coping mechanisms and a deeper understanding of their emotions.

The Focus on Men’s Recovery: A Safe and Supportive Space

One of the distinctive features of Rippling Waters Retreat Treatment Center is our focus on men’s recovery. Our Men’s Only Recovery Program is designed to address the specific challenges and experiences unique to men. Studies have shown that men often experience higher rates of depression, anxiety, trauma, and addiction, but due to societal expectations, they are less likely to seek help. Men are often taught to suppress their emotions and hide vulnerability, which can lead to unresolved inner conflict and emotional suppression.

Our men’s recovery program provides a space where individuals can heal and process their emotions without the distractions of a co-ed environment. With a maximum of ten men in the program, we create an intimate setting that encourages open communication, mutual support, and camaraderie. Our skilled therapists facilitate group and individual therapy sessions, providing personalized care that addresses each individual's unique struggles. The healing process becomes a shared journey, where men can explore their emotions in a safe, non-judgmental space and develop a sense of brotherhood.

The emotional suppression many men experience is often linked to negative beliefs and unhealthy patterns of behavior. At Rippling Waters, we work with each participant to identify and challenge these limiting beliefs, helping them uncover the root causes of their struggles. This process of self-awareness and self-acceptance is essential for breaking free from destructive patterns and building a fulfilling, meaningful life.

Holistic Wellness: Healing the Mind, Body, and Spirit

Rippling Waters Retreat Treatment Center takes a holistic approach to recovery, which means we treat the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. We recognize that addiction, trauma, and other emotional struggles are not just mental health issues but also affect physical and spiritual well-being. That’s why we incorporate wellness therapies like yoga, meditation, breathing exercises, and sound baths into our programs.

These practices help individuals relax, reduce stress, and cultivate mindfulness, enabling them to better manage their emotions and navigate life’s challenges. Breathing and stress reduction techniques are taught to help guests ground themselves in the present moment and manage the physical symptoms of anxiety and stress. Meanwhile, yoga and meditation provide tools for cultivating inner peace, mental clarity, and emotional balance, enhancing the overall recovery experience.

At Rippling Waters, we believe in creating a sanctuary where individuals can not only heal but also grow. Our goal is to empower guests to re-envision their lives, develop healthy coping strategies, and discover a renewed sense of purpose and meaning. By integrating therapeutic, experiential, and wellness modalities, we guide individuals toward lifelong personal transformation.
