Our Programs
At Williamsville Wellness, our approach is grounded in the belief that every individual is unique, and so every gambling, drug, and alcohol addiction treatment must be unique as well. To ensure that everything is completely customized for each patient, the focus of our residential alcoholism treatment program is one-on-one therapy which allows us to understand and appreciate the complexities of each case.
The 28 Day Comprehensive Program
Most clients select our 28 Day Comprehensive Program. Some are referred by a health care professional who, familiar with their situation and prior treatments, will suggest a residential alcoholism treatment program as the next best step. Others come to us because they have tried other more abbreviated programs or approaches that did not work for them and they are now ready to dedicate themselves to another level of therapy. Sometimes, people just know that they are ready.
The Williamsville comprehensive program is an intensive drug, gambling, and alcohol abuse treatment program. Throughout treatment, patients stay within our warm and welcoming manor house, a much better environment for recovery than the stale, clinical setting found at most other residential alcohol treatment facilities. Our licensed team of professionals provides gambling, drug, and alcoholic treatment in a fully licensed and certified environment.
In addition to intensive, one-on-one counseling, our alcoholic treatment programs involve personality assessment to determine contributing negative personality traits and an overhaul of diet and exercise. We believe that only holistic drug, gambling, and alcoholic treatment programs get results. By treating the whole person, we empower the whole person to rise above addictive behavior and achieve long-term recovery. Our gambling, drug, and alcoholic treatment staff treats patients at a 1:1 ration, allowing us to devote hours each day to individual attention. Group therapy is the basis for most alcohol abuse treatment at other facilities, but not Williamsville: our drug, gambling, and alcohol addiction treatment emphasizes the individual, using group therapy as a supporting tool.

Level I and Level II Assessments
For clients who are not sure that they are ready for the 28 Day Comprehensive Program, Williamsville Wellness offers two additional approaches. The Level I and Level II Assessments are multi-day residential, clinical assessments that clients may select to determine if they have a problem and if so, the type of addictive behavior treatment that may be the best alternative for them.
The Level I Assessment is a 3 day program that includes a combination of medical screenings, extensive testing and multiple one-on-one therapeutic assessments and evaluations. Clients reside at one of our two facilities and the program includes all meals for the period.
The Level II Assessment is a 5 day program and includes all of the elements of the Level I Assessment. In addition, our therapists begin to actually craft an addictive behavior treatment plan in days 4 and 5, which can be implemented back at home or at another facility.
In both cases, if the client chooses to enter residential alcohol treatment or pursue gambling or drug therapy at Williamsville Wellness, the investment in the Assessment is applied toward the Comprehensive Program.
These Assessments can be particularly helpful for clients who are struggling with an addiction but are not sure that their situation warrants a comprehensive gabling, drug, or alcohol addiction treatment program. They can also be a helpful way to ease into therapeutic treatment for the first time. Finally, an Assessment can be a way for the client to evaluate Williamsville and determine if this is the right place for them before committing to a longer period of stay.
