24/7 Help, Free Consultation and No Obligations.

Thank you for your service.

Thanking you is hardly enough to show the gratitude we have for your service, your commitment and dedication to serving our country and protecting our families. We understand this commitment took sacrifice and selflessness, and often has effects that last long after your active duty.

 

Trauma, Depression, PTSD and other factors can contribute to substance abuse. Drugs and alcohol are often used as tools to cope with the effects of these underlying conditions. In an effort to suppress or remove the feelings, memories, or thoughts, people are likely to abuse drugs or alcohol. This behavior of self-medicating is one path that often leads to the progressive condition of addiction.

Addiction doesn’t develop from a lack of discipline, it results from the persistence of pain and your efforts to get rid of it.

We designed a program that would meet the unique needs and experiences of those who have served. Created by veterans and clinicians, for veterans— our Valor program is offered in each level of care that we provide.

first step

Medically-Assisted Detox

Our detox program uses FDA-approved medications to counter any withdrawal symptoms. Our goal in this program is to safely, effectively, and comfortably detox you from any substances. We provide balanced nutrition with 3 meals/day prepared by our in-house chef. As your body is brought back to equilibrium by our doctors, you will attend individual and group therapy sessions.

second step

Residential Inpatient

The most significant step in the recovery process. During inpatient, we will uncover the root causes of your substance abuse and help you to work through any ingrained core beliefs or intrusive thoughts that hold you back. We have master's-level therapists with certifications in multiple trauma therapy modalities, including EMDR, Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Biofeedback, etc.

continuing care

Outpatient Programs

Our intensive outpatient & outpatient programs seamlessly transition you into greater responsibility and fewer restrictions to prepare you for complete independence. Continuing care after inpatient treatment significantly improves your likelihood of maintaining sobriety by over 50%. IOP/OP prepares you for recovery and life after treatment.

Treatment covered by insurance through the VA

To get started, our process is very simple. We have a conversation with you, we will put you in touch with our specialist, and our specialist will walk you through the process of getting a referral for treatment through your local VA center. We work closely with VA centers and have existing relationships because of our Valor program and the positive impact it’s had on their members.

We will build a secure chart in our electronic medical record (EMR) system, so that we can easily reference this record and schedule your stay once we receive your referral. You will need a referral from a VA health center in order for your VA insurance to cover the cost of our drug and alcohol treatment programs.

Specialty Programs

Valor Program

For military veterans or active duty military personnel.

Native Program

For tribal members who benefit from building a foundation for recovery upon cultural values and beliefs.

Trauma Program

For those with a physical, sexual, verbal, or emotional trauma history.

Chronic Relapser

Our IOP/OP program that offers longer-term treatment for those who need structured support after inpatient treatment.

For you.
For your family.
For the rest of your life.

At Royal Life Centers, we have dedicated over 13 years to providing an alternative solution for individuals who are struggling. We identify and treat the reasons why you are coping. Our team is made up mostly of individuals who are in recovery themselves— bringing you face-to-face with living, breathing proof that recovery is possible.

Our Valor program is thoughtful and functional. It provides intensive therapy that is targeted to relieve symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder and anxiety caused by trauma. We use therapy types that have been proven to provide relief in less sessions than the leading trauma therapies.

 

One of our techniques is Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), which is proven to alleviate PTSD symptoms much faster, and with lasting benefits. ART provides results in just 3 sessions, as opposed to 11 sessions of EMDR.

 

Our Valor program is only open to active duty military personnel or U.S. military veterans. 

 

We want our guests to feel comfortable in sharing what they’ve seen, felt, been through, and are still dealing with. Many of these things are unique to the experience of serving, experiences that only other veterans will be able to understand. Our Valor program creates a community of support through peers who you share common ground and an understanding for the structure and nature of what it means to serve our country.

The treatment experience for Veterans has historically come short. For those who have put their lives on the line for our safety, we knew this needed to change. Today, we are proud to share the details of our specialized program for vets. This program was created by veterans and clinicians, just for veterans. 

If you are interested in our programs for veterans and would like more information about how to get started, please fill out this contact request below. You may call us directly at any time if you prefer, our admissions department is open 24/7.

"From intake to care, proper, knowledgeable and caring medical staff that gave individual care to everyone there; it made such a hard thing (going through detox) so comfortable. Loved that we all had our own rooms, snacks available at all times, smoke breaks when we need it, amazing counselors, speakers in intimate groups. The staff have such personal knowledge of what you may be going through that there is compassion and love. This gave me the reset that I needed when I thought that I was going to die. I can’t say enough good things about this place (even through this COVID stuff) they handle everything with efficiency, cleanliness and caring. I will only recommend Royal Life Centers to anyone who asks. 💜 Much love and respect to all the staff, chef, nurses, crew, maintenance, group leaders, nighttime staff and independent inspiring speakers that came in on their own time!!"

"This place is great the whole staff was awesome and all the residents were there too I definitely recommend going. I went through a lot of treatment centers in the VA and they always let us have our phones and I'm so glad that they actually take them here away cuz it's such a distraction when you're trying to concentrate on yourself. The food was great and you get your own room too also they live by their motto and they do care. Thank you guys again!"

"This place saved my life. I had lost the will to live and was reading these reviews just like you are now and decided to check myself in. It was the best decision I have ever made. The people at Royal genuinely care about you and the majority of the staff have a personal understanding of addiction and its horrible toll. Their sympathy and caring can not be conveyed with simple words. The Royal program is extensive and well thought out and can change you so thoroughly the results can be breathtaking. Royal gave me my life back. Gave me my kids back. Gave me my job back. Gave me Me back. No matter how broken you are, how hopeless you've become there is a way back and these people can put you back together again if you let them. An awesome life is waiting for you if you want it!"

"I am an alumni of Chapter 5, and I am so grateful for everything they have done for me. The staff are helpful, supportive, and professional. This program is structured in a great way. The housing team and clinical team work together to set each client up for success. I really felt cared about. I was able to learn how to balance recovery, responsibility, work, and of course, fun. They did a great job preparing me for my transition out of treatment. Chapter 5 helped me to start rebuilding my life, and I wouldn't be celebrating 14 months of sobriety today without them."

"This place was by far the most amazing Treatment Center and detox that anyone could ever hope for! The staff is absolutely amazing they truly genuinely care about your well being I am beyond grateful for every single one of them! They dont allow you to not feel uncomfortable. If detoxing from opiates you can choose to do a suboxone taper and its the best option by far so when u leave your not on any mind altering substance and for me thats what i wanted more then anything to truly be 100% clean! They helped me achieve that when i wasnt capable of doing it on my own. Thank you royal life center for helping me get myself back and my family words cant explain how grateful I am for each and every one of you!"

"I have no idea what to say to do this place justice. Do they have some minor issues that they are working though of course. But in general this place is Amazing! The staff from the boss to the chefs where such kind and caring people! The main staff members that run the front desk and keep track of everyone (I forgot their title) are so awesome they have such big hearts and are always there to help if you need anything! I'm not sure if I am allowed to say staff names so to be safe I won't, but my counselor (I hope she reads this) was so amazing she helped me so much. And I have to mention the male night staff person that is 19 years old, he helped me see life though my kids eyes and that made a huge difference in me wanting to stay sober. Thank you so much Royals and hope to be back in the future to see about volunteering."

"Royal Life Centers of Spokane, was an amazing rehabilitation experience, The staff there truly cares about each individuals wellbeing and understand the long tedious process on the road to recovery. The programs that they have help you understand addiction as well as showing you the endless joy that comes along with sobriety. The detox center was amazing and the food was excellent, But the real growth starts within their 9 week program and Graduate aftercare. The whole experience at Royal Life Centers was truly a blessing at the lowest point in my life. I spent 14 months in their hand from detox to their graduate housing and aftercare. Today I am 2 years and 4 months clean thanks to My Royal life family."

"Here at Royal you are a guest, not a patient. They treat you with respect and are willing to help you with any means necessary. The staff here is consistent about checking in with you on not only your progress at the program but how you are feeling as a person, emotionally, physically and mentally. Including caring for your everyday needs, the other guests become your brothers and sisters as we are all here for the same reason, to become a better version of ourselves. Giving you the tools to create your own future and helping you step into a fast pace world. I highly recommend Royal Life Centers to anyone who wishes to make a positive impact on themselves and the people they surround themselves with."

"There is only one thing that matters about a treatment center and that is what results they get for the people staying there. In my case I was able to connect with some excellent professionals who were able to get me to think differently... they convinced me to hang in there day by day as ill as I was, and then to move on to the next level of the Royal treatment which is where I am learning to live properly again. These people really do care about each individual. This treatment is more effective than many more fancy programs and is excellent for alcoholics and addicts alike. I would recommend no other place for recovery."

"I am filled with gratitude for the new “Royal” life I have that started the day I checked into inpatient at Royal Life Center of Spokane! I was set on a path of recovery through the love, dignity and respect I received from the staff and the environment they have developed. This continued into PHP where I developed those same attitudes of love, dignity and respect toward myself!!"

"Bottom line is, change comes from within, you gotta be the one to light that flame, there is no perfect facility, no magic pills, no magician who can cast away your problems. That being said Royal is a good place with caring staff who do their best to make this process as easy as it can be. They provide a safe, drug free environment with education and nutrition to get you on your way. They will lay the tools at your feet, expose you to experience, strength, and , hope, but your recovery is your responsibility! If you want these tools, and the help to get a good head start on changing your life, then I recommend Royal for you. So if your ready to attack your problems with a warriors mentality, Royal will stand along side you in this battle!"

"My experience at Sumner Royal Life Centers went excellent. I walked in with the belief I was going to learn how to deal with my addiction, but left realizing I had core issues which I needed to cope with and the addiction was a side affect of those issues. The staff were wonderful, it was obvious in the couple days how much they cared about assisting each client. I would certainly recommend Royal Life Centers to anyone."

"Royal Live Centers was there for me when I needed them most. From Dennis who took my initial phone call to the nurses, counselors and doctors, I felt real compassion for my situation. There was a true desire to help me stemming from the fact that most of them had been in my exact situation. The people who work there really do care about the clients. I can say without a doubt that, without the help I received at Royal Life, I would not be sober today. Thank you!"

"Wow! When a company adopts a motto like "Because We Care", it leaves the door open for a fair amount of criticism. Well, the team at Royal Life Centers lives and breathes this precept on a daily basis.

I arrived at RLC 92 days ago; broken, depressed, hopeless and physically sick. I wasn't suicidal but had no desire to move forward with life...Upon completion [of detox] I moved over to the nine-week program which helps provide a smooth transition from the more structured residential inpatient to the more flexible outpatient. This is where the training wheels came off and I started to live life again.

I attended fewer but more intense groups, found a sponsor through one of the facilitators, attended daily 12 step meetings, had the opportunity to receive BioFeedback Therapy & it was awesome, hiked all over Prescott in Krista's Outdoor Adventure Group, learned some life skills with Steve and had life-changing one on one sessions with Gary...

One of the things I have enjoyed the most during my stay at RLC is the accommodations and the staff who tends to them. It is not just the facilitators who embody the "Because We Care" motto, it is everyone, the housing & transportation ....medical and maintenance team all live and breathe this just as much as the group leaders and therapists do. The houses themselves, are clean and in safe neighborhoods (close to Downtown); and are equipped with high speed WiFi and Flat Screen Televisions in all the rooms...Thank You Royal Life Centers, you and your “Because We Care” approach saved my life."

Forever in my heart! 10/10 recommend ! Thank you Royal!

Where we believe everybody deserves to be living their dream life.

We believe that overcoming past and present adversity serves as an asset that allows for self-growth and the changing of behaviors.

We aim to shift guests’ perspective from seeing addiction as a life sentence to seeing recovery as an inquisitive, unique and enthralling experience to find their higher selves. So, once a passion is sparked and a flame is ignited, the perceived “need” for drugs and alcohol diminishes and is replaced with a craving to experience life with clarity. Guests gain the self-love and self-respect to finally want a better way of life because they realize they deserve to grow and flourish in the world. “Because We Care,” not only do we teach individuals how to reclaim their lives, we empower them to re-integrate the forgotten parts of self in order to attain self-reliance.
