Recovery Centers of America at Westminster, often called RCA Westminster, is located at 9 Village Inn Road, Westminster, MA 01473. Adults with substance use disorders are served here, including those who also have mental health conditions like trauma, post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, or anxiety. It has held Joint Commission accreditation and has run since 2016. Care spans medically supervised detox and residential treatment through structured day and extended-day programs, along with outpatient services.

Six guiding principles form the foundation of the program, each intended to help people maintain sobriety over time. Medication is used to reduce cravings and the chance of relapse, 12-step meetings are held every day to build peer bonds, and dialectical behavior therapy teaches skills for handling emotions and coping. Families are included as part of the process, alumni remain connected after they leave, and an ongoing approach informed by data monitors progress as it happens and modifies services when necessary. First responders and military members can access help designed for their circumstances.

Substance use disorders are treated at RCA Westminster together with co-occurring disorders. Plans are individualized for each person and address both issues at the same time, drawing on evidence-based care, family involvement, and a Twelve Step orientation.

Program types and care levels

Residential and day treatment are available, plus care for co-occurring disorders, outpatient services, and detox. Therapeutic offerings include individual counseling, art therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, family therapy, life skills, medication-assisted treatment, meditation and mindfulness, music therapy, and relapse prevention counseling. A typical stay is 30 days. Residential and detox services at this Massachusetts rehab combine medically supervised withdrawal with daily structured therapy. When it is unclear which level of care is appropriate, call the center to ask about availability and insurance benefits.

Withdrawal from alcohol and benzodiazepines May be harmful so a medical team should monitor detox; this is supervised by the center's own medical staff. If you are traveling from Boston or elsewhere in Massachusetts, ask about the intake timeline before making plans.
