Therapy That Moves You Forward
Our Approach to Addiction Treatment in Ohio
At Forward Health, our programs are built around evidence-based therapies and delivered by a compassionate team who understands what you’re going through. Whether you’re dealing with substance use, trauma, or co-occurring disorders, we create a plan that’s as unique as your story—supporting your mind, body, and future every step of the way.
CBT helps individuals recognize and reframe negative thought patterns, empowering them to respond to life’s challenges with healthier behaviors and beliefs.
DBT is a skills-based approach that focuses on emotional regulation, mindfulness, and interpersonal effectiveness—ideal for clients dealing with intense emotions or dual diagnoses.
We help you confront and process unresolved trauma in a safe, supportive space—so it no longer holds power over your present or future.
Led by experienced clinicians, group therapy fosters community, accountability, and shared healing through open discussion, empathy, and peer connection.
From mindfulness to movement, we offer holistic options that treat the whole person—mind, body, and spirit—enhancing recovery through balance and self-awareness.
