Addiction isn’t one-size-fits-all, and neither is recovery. Suntra’s concierge recovery services are custom-tailored to suit the individual needs of our clients. Choose the services and clinical solutions that work best for you and your loved ones, with guidance from a team of experienced recovery experts.

Suntra Modern Recovery services are built on a foundation of personal experience battling—and defeating—addiction. Our coaches and interventionists connect with clients on a personal level, helping them identify the thoughts, feelings, triggers, and impulses behind their addiction.
Suntra doesn’t run on experience alone; all of our staff members are clinically trained and certified in their areas of focus. By combining the benefits of personal experience with the effectiveness of clinical therapies, Suntra Modern Recovery is able to deliver better, more effective care for people with addiction.
