Women’s Addiction Treatment Program in Broomfield, Colorado

The Foundry Front Range Women’s Treatment Center offers gender-specific treatment in a safe and supportive environment for drug and alcohol detox and inpatient treatment options.

Gender-specific residential addiction treatment for women has proven to improve outcomes. Substance use and mental health disorders can affect women differently than men. Women can also experience higher rates of trauma, physical violence, and sexual assault resulting from living with active addiction. Our women’s recovery program provides a safe, gender-specific space, female team members, women’s healthcare, and relevant curriculum designed for women. An all-female treatment setting can make it easier for women to feel comfortable and to share openly during treatment.

Our center fulfills a vital need for gender-responsive care and supports the mission of women in recovery. Historically, it has also been harder for women to engage in treatment because they are more often responsible for caring for family members and loved ones. We shape our in-person IOP, virtual IOP, and family programs with that in mind.


What is a Women’s Treatment Program?

A woman-only addiction treatment program is a residential or outpatient level of care designed specifically for women navigating substance use disorders, often alongside co-occurring mental health conditions. These programs provide a structured, gender-specific environment where clinical care, group therapy, and peer support are tailored to the experiences women are more likely to bring into treatment, including trauma, relationship dynamics, and caregiver roles.

At Foundry Front Range, our women’s rehab program is designed to address these intersecting needs within a medically supervised setting. If you’re exploring treatment options for yourself or a loved one, our admissions team can help you determine whether gender-specific care may be the right fit.

Benefits of a Women’s Addiction Treatment Program

Gender-specific addiction treatment can offer meaningful clinical and personal advantages for women who may face unique barriers to recovery.

  • Trauma-informed care tailored to women: Many women entering treatment have histories of trauma, including intimate partner violence or sexual abuse, and gender-specific programs are structured to address these experiences directly within the clinical model.
  • Safe space for open group therapy: A women-only environment may support greater openness and trust in group settings, allowing participants to engage more fully in peer support and shared processing.
  • Integrated co-occurring mental health treatment: Women with substance use disorders are more likely to present with co-occurring conditions such as depression or anxiety, and gender-specific programs are designed to treat both simultaneously.
  • Support around caregiving and family roles: Treatment can address the practical and emotional weight of parenting, caregiving, and family responsibilities that often shape a woman’s path into and through recovery.
  • Peer community with shared experience: Recovering alongside other women can foster connection and accountability that supports sustained engagement in treatment.

Women’s Treatment Program Services List

Here is what you can expect when you are admitted to Foundry Front Range’s women’s rehab and addiction treatment services program.

1. Assessments and Screenings

All clients receive a thorough assessment of physical and mental health as well as addiction history. Women also have access to a wide range of screenings for metabolic function, reproductive health, sexually transmitted diseases, and more.

2. Optional Medically Supervised Detoxification

Foundry Front Range offers high-quality medically supervised detox for clients who need to rid their bodies of substances safely and comfortably. Our dedicated detox pod provides privacy and allows perpetual supervision.

3. Psychiatric Prescribing and Medication Monitoring

Psychiatric medications can play powerful roles in reducing substance cravings and managing mental health disorder symptoms like anxiety and depression. Our psychiatric prescribers are experienced in supporting individual recovery goals and collaborating with colleagues to ensure an optimized medical plan.

4.Gender-Responsive Curriculum

Our women’s program uses a specialized curriculum to make treatment especially relevant and effective. A women’s curriculum deals with gender-specific topics that can make the treatment experience more productive and meaningful. Whether discussing gender-related issues and roles, biases, gender-identity issues, partner relationships, parent-child relationships, or other experiences common to women, using a gender-specific curriculum focuses on the issues that are often most important to clients and families.

5. Individual Psychotherapy

Our women’s treatment program includes personalized, individual psychotherapy sessions. Psychotherapy is a cornerstone of evidence-based practice. Our clinicians are highly trained and typically use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and gestalt therapy.

6. Women’s Group Therapy

All-female group therapy sessions provide an opportunity to learn together, share experiences, build relationships, and get mutual support. Our group therapy sessions are supervised by experienced clinicians and are safe and supportive environments.

7. Trauma Therapy

Trauma is a prevalent issue for women impacted by behavioral health disorders. Resolving trauma is essential to lasting recovery and overall health and well-being. We use evidence-based trauma therapies, including EMDR, somatic experiencing, and others, to resolve underlying trauma so that clients can successfully engage in other aspects of treatment.

8. Women-Centered Psychoeducation

We offer psychoeducation to help clients understand the disease of addiction and substance use disorders. Being educated about these disorders improves one’s ability to successfully manage symptoms and advocate for their own health.

9. Women’s Healthcare Services

We provide basic women’s healthcare to assess medical conditions, treat minor ailments, and supervise and advise on medication use.

10. Dietary and Nutritional Counseling

Women are disproportionately affected by disordered eating and eating disorders. Substance use disorders often exacerbate nutritional problems. We provide nutritional counseling and prepare nutritious meals to help restore a healthy relationship with food and strive to use nutrition as a means of attaining better health and overall well-being.

11. Recreation and Fitness Activities

Learning to enjoy life free from substances is an essential part of supporting long-term recovery. Physical fitness is helpful to overall health and improves self-image. We offer daily recreational and fitness activities, including movement and mindfulness, as well as individual and group activities.

12. Comprehensive Case Management

High-quality case management can make a crucial difference in behavioral health. Case managers coordinate each client’s care and collaborate with the care team to ensure individualized care.

13. Continuing Care Planning

Behavioral health conditions are chronic medical conditions that require ongoing management. Ensuring that clients have a specific and actionable ongoing treatment plan is especially important in early recovery and immediately after completing treatmentโ€”a vulnerable period when individuals are no longer supported by a safe residential treatment environment. We help clients find resources in their home communities and caregivers qualified to continue providing medical and therapeutic services.

Women’s Addiction Treatment FAQ

Here are some questions people also ask about women’s rehab and women’s addiction treatment more generally.

What makes a women’s addiction treatment program different from a mixed-gender program?

Women’s addiction treatment programs are structured around the clinical, emotional, and social factors that more commonly shape substance use in women, including trauma histories, co-occurring mental health conditions, and caregiving responsibilities. A gender-specific environment can support greater openness in group therapy and peer support settings. At Foundry Front Range, our women’s rehab program integrates these considerations throughout the full continuum of residential care.

What substances are treated in a women’s rehab program?

Women’s residential treatment can address a range of substance use disorders, including alcohol, opioids, benzodiazepines, stimulants, and cannabis. Many women entering treatment present with polysubstance use, and clinical programming is designed to address the full picture of use rather than a single substance. Our team conducts a thorough clinical assessment at intake to determine the appropriate level of care and treatment approach.

How long does women’s residential addiction treatment typically last?

The length of residential addiction treatment varies based on individual clinical need, but programs commonly range from 30 to 90 days. Longer stays may be recommended for individuals with complex co-occurring conditions or histories of relapse. Your treatment timeline will be determined collaboratively with your clinical team based on your progress and goals.

What co-occurring mental health conditions are treated alongside addiction?

Women with substance use disorders frequently present with co-occurring conditions such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, and trauma-related disorders. At Foundry Front Range, co-occurring mental health treatment is integrated throughout the care continuum rather than addressed separately. You can learn more about the conditions we treat at our what we treat page.

Is trauma-informed care included in the women’s program?

Yes, trauma-informed care is a core component of gender-specific addiction treatment for women. Clinical programming is designed to acknowledge the role trauma may play in substance use and to provide a safe, supportive environment for processing those experiences. Our women’s rehab program incorporates these principles throughout residential treatment.

How do I know if inpatient or outpatient treatment is the right level of care for me?

Level-of-care placement is determined clinically, based on factors such as the severity of substance use, medical or psychiatric history, and your home environment. Inpatient residential treatment is generally recommended for individuals who need 24/7 clinical supervision and a structured setting away from daily stressors. Our admissions team can help you assess your needs and determine whether residential or an outpatient option such as our intensive outpatient program may be the right fit.
