Our Philosophy
BlueCrest believes that successful treatment for substance abuse and co-occurring disorders must address the maladies of the mind, body, and spirit. Our truly holistic approach relies on our staff’s extensive knowledge of evidence-based practices to individualize each treatment plan to meet the specific needs of the client. We also believe that any treatment that does not fully integrate 12-step principles is incomplete. BlueCrest provides education on 12-step programs and requires all clients to develop a recovery network by attending and participating in their local groups and meetings.
Our Mission
Our mission is to provide every client with individualized treatment while reinforcing the importance of 12-step recovery and educating them on its principles. Through genuine clinical relationships using the best treatment practices available, our goal is for each client to leave BlueCrest with the foundation needed for long-term, meaningful recovery.
Our Specialized Approach
BlueCrest believes that substance abuse and co-occurring disorders cannot be fully addressed without healing the mind, body, and spirit. BlueCrest’s skilled clinical team is comprised of licensed medical and mental health professionals. Our staff also includes yoga and meditation instructors in addition to our leadership and support team. A cornerstone of BlueCrest’s treatment philosophy is our low client-to-counselor ratio, providing everyone we treat with the personalized therapy and care they both need and deserve.
Clinical
BlueCrest’s clinical team is proficient in providing the most current and reliable treatment modalities. After an assessment, we create a treatment plan consisting of specific therapies to meet a client’s individual needs.

Richard Hession, Chief Executive Officer
Letter from the CEO
“My life drastically changed as a result of following directions. As a result of being WILLING to have another person guide me towards real recovery, I went from being practically homeless, unemployable, and unwelcome to family and friends to owning several homes, holding prestigious jobs on Wall Street, and mending the broken ties that I had created during the darkest moments of my life.” – Richard Hession
The recommendations given to each client are specific to their needs and are built with purpose; out of love and care.
The accommodations are very comfortable, but not luxurious. Just enough “no-frills” to feel the humility but also safe, clean, and makes you feel at home. Everyone cooks together and comes together as a community in the houses.
The groups and content are engaging and can get quite deep; yet also contain the right amount of fun, relaxation, and meditation to sooth the soul.
I highly recommend BlueCrest Recovery Center to anyone who is serious about recovery, and wants to stay sober indefinitely!
My hope has returned, when 2 months ago I had none, and I have gotten my life back one day at a time.
The PHP program gave me the structure and support I needed while also helping me build the tools and confidence to move forward in my recovery. The groups were meaningful, the clinicians were approachable and supportive, and I appreciated being in an environment where I felt comfortable being open and honest.
What stood out most to me was how much the staff genuinely care about the people who come through the program. I’m very grateful for my experience at BlueCrest and would absolutely recommend them and their PHP program to anyone looking for a supportive, understanding, and encouraging place to start or continue their recovery.
