Why The Ridge Is Ohio’s Leading Rehab for Professionals

Alcohol and drug addictions are increasingly affecting the workforce. A 2020 study by the Behavioral Health Impact Update revealed a significant increase, with 49% of American workers struggling with substance use issues. These startling statistics highlight the substantial challenge and the need for a treatment approach that is unique and tailored to professionals. 

The Addiction Treatment for Professionals Program at The Ridge Ohio, a Joint Commission accredited facility, is specifically designed to meet the highest standards of clinical excellence. This program is recognized by professional boards, monitoring agencies, and licensing associations. Our rehab for professionals in Ohio prioritizes confidentiality, accountability, and long-term recovery.

Dr. Marc Whitsett, A Board Certified Medical Director for The Ridge, explains what sets our program apart:

“One of my favorite things about The Ridge Ohio is The Ridge Professionals Program. I think to understand the Professionals Program, first, you have to understand its origin. Dr. Jeff Stuckert, our founder and an ER doctor, was very successful but also an alcoholic. He had gone into treatment at a hospital in-patient program where he said he felt very much like a number. When he got into recovery, he really wanted to create an environment for professionals like him to receive truly individualized care. That’s how The Ridge Ohio and The Ridge Professionals Program was started.”

Comprehensive Addiction Treatment Programs for Professionals in Ohio

Entering an addiction treatment center as an adult professional requires a distinctive and strategic approach. The complexity of treating addiction in this specific demographic stems from the intersection of professional responsibilities, personal identity, and high-stakes careers.

At The Ridge Ohio, we understand professionals working in demanding fields such as business, law, or healthcare have invested years in education, training, and hard work to reach their current positions. These careers” are more than a source of income; they represent a vocation, a core part of their identity, and often a lifelong pursuit. The workplace is not only where professionals contribute to society and build success, but also where they find purpose and fulfillment.

Dr. Dan Jolivet, Workplace Possibilities practice consultant at The Standard, states, “When an employee is living with a substance-use issue, oftentimes a job is something positive to hold onto, and one of the strongest sources of support and encouragement.” 

Given this, a one-size-fits-all approach to addiction treatment falls short of addressing the unique needs of professionals struggling with addiction. The personalized, holistic methods we use at our rehab for professionals in Ohio not only address addiction but also focus on improving the sustainable balance between work and personal life. Treatment teams collaborate with relevant professional organizations to ensure compliance with relevant regulations and to safeguard your career and reputation. We recognize that recovery cannot be isolated from professional identity; it is central to who you are and your long-term healing.

How Our Treatment Philosophy Supports Professionals

Addiction is a disease that responds positively to evidence-based treatment, lifestyle changes, education, and, in some cases, medication. In the field of addiction treatment, experienced providers no longer view addiction as a character flaw, moral failing, or a lack of willpower. Instead, it is recognized as a medical condition similarly to other chronic conditions such as hypertension or diabetes.

“The foundation of our professional program is the fact that addiction is a chronic medical condition that responds well to appropriate treatment.”

The first step in recovery at our professional rehab in Ohio involves a comprehensive biopsychosocial assessment conducted by an interdisciplinary team that includes addictionologists, internists, a psychiatrists, and licensed counselors. This treatment team takes time to understand your personal experiences, addiction history, medical background, and treatment goals. Based on this assessment, the team works collaboratively with you to develop a tailored treatment plan that incorporates multiple evidence-based modalities that harness your strengths and cater to your specific needs.

We also offer dual-diagnosis treatment programs to address co-occurring mental health conditions that may have contributed to or worsened substance use. This integrated approach ensures that both addiction and mental health challenges are treated together for better long-term outcomes.

We employ evidence-based treatment modalities that have been rigorously tested and proven to contribute to lasting recovery. Your professional addiction treatment program may include the following:

      • Healthy communication

    • Educational classes and workshops:
