Welcome to Options!

We are a private, residential alcohol and drug recovery facility located just fifteen minutes from the International Airport in beautiful Kelowna, British Columbia. We are unique in our approach in providing a safe, respectful, and loving environment for beginning your road to recovery.

We are a small center with private rooms which include an on-suite, lovely décor and the space you need to just relax and find some privacy. Our treatment program consists of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy combined with an introduction to Twelve Step programs. There is a huge emphasis on education about the disease of addiction and relapse prevention.

Our staff at Options is second to none with most in long-term recovery from drugs and alcohol. This brings a personal understanding that each and every client needs to be supported and cared for with compassion and understanding during their stay at Options.

We offer incredible, nutritious meals and cater to those with special dietary needs. We also offer a unique, recovery-based yoga program. We strongly believe in treating the mind, body and spirit.

Because treatment is only the beginning of recovery, we offer our unique Virtual Aftercare Program. This is a wonderful way to "ease" back into your life with support from our Certified Aftercare Counselor. Aftercare is strongly suggested and should be integrated as a part of your treatment plan.

As addiction is considered a "family" disease, we are proud to offer family counseling while you are in treatment and as part of our virtual program.

Options has an "open door" policy for our alumni which keeps us connected with our clients. We feel that this has greatly contributed to our success rate in helping addicts to find and continue their long-term recovery.

Treating Trauma, Process Addictions And Concurrent Disorders

At Options, our counselors are skilled and trained in trauma-informed practice. Most people who are addicted to drugs and/or alcohol have abused substances in order to cope with things like Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), childhood and other traumas.


PTSD And Trauma & Prescription Drug Abuse or Addiction to Opiates

Many of our clients have been diagnosed with concurrent mental disorders. These can include anxiety disorder, depressive disorder, bi-polar disorder, and many others. As drug and alcohol addiction can "mimic" these types of disorders it is important that we treat the substance addiction first and foremost so the person can then receive an accurate psychiatric diagnosis.

We often find that when people are clean and sober for a period of time that their mental health symptoms, such as anxiety and depression go away or diminish greatly.

Along with drug and alcohol addiction, many of our clients have what are called "process addictions". These types of addictions can include shopping, gambling, working, food, sex and video gaming. Anything can become an addiction. At Options we treat the behaviors around these types of addictions in conjunction with treatment for drug and/or alcohol addiction in a compassionate and understanding way.


Embracing Healing Roots and Unlocking Ancient Wisdom

The Transformative Role of Sweat Lodge Ceremonies in Addiction Recovery at Options Okanagan

Embracing Tradition for Modern Healing: Sweat Lodge Therapy’s Role in Addiction Recovery for Prescription Drug Abuse or Addiction to Opiates

In the heart of Kelowna, British Columbia, Options Okanagan has tenderly woven a thread of ancient tradition into the tapestry of modern healing practices by introducing a new Sweat Lodge to their sanctuary of recovery. This heartfelt initiative is a reflection of their deep commitment to embracing the cultural wealth of healing arts. The compassionate team at Options Okanagan deeply empathizes with the emotional, spiritual, and physical battles faced by those journeying away from the grips of drug or alcohol addiction. They hold a sacred space for the profound transformation that the Sweat Lodge ceremony—steeped in spiritual significance—can catalyze.

The Sweat Lodge stands as a nurturing womb of Mother Earth, a place where one can strip away the weight of past struggles and immerse in the purity of introspection. Here, in the embrace of warmth and sacred chants, individuals are invited to release their burdens and find solace in the shared heartbeat of a community committed to healing. The counselors at Options Okanagan, with gentle understanding and respect for the multifaceted nature of addiction, have seen the powerful shifts that such a culturally rich practice can inspire. They believe wholeheartedly in the Sweat Lodge's capacity to forge profound connections—connections to self, to community, and to a life-affirming path forward.

This addition to Options Okanagan is not just an expansion of services; it is a beacon of hope, a hand extended in the darkest of times, offering a way back to wholeness and vitality. It is an invitation to stand together, to heal together, and to grow together, towards lasting sobriety and a renewed vision of life. This is the heart of Options Okanagan's mission: to journey alongside each individual with unwavering support, honoring every step towards a life reclaimed.

A&E Interventions : Season 17, Episode 7

A&E Intervention: Alex at Options Family Wellness Addiction Center

The only child of a single mother and world-class fiddle player, Alex was surrounded by music from birth. His mother married when Alex was five, but after a few years the marriage deteriorated and life became difficult at home. Friction with his stepfather left Alex increasingly isolated and he turned to the fiddle to try and gain acceptance. Alex’s skill developed and he had some early recognition, but living in his mother’s musical shadow was difficult and he began to compensate with alcohol as a young teenager. Just as Alex was beginning his professional career, his mother and stepfather divorced. The combination of his family’s dysfunction and life spent on the road soon turned his fondness for drink into a debilitating, fall-down addiction. Now in his mid-twenties, Alex’s career is at a standstill and his health is rapidly deteriorating. Without an intervention, he could lose his career, his family and his life.
