Our Addiction & Mental Health Treatment Programs in Tucson, AZ

At Cottonwood Tucson, we rely on the latest research on the neurobiology of human development and the neuroscience of addiction and mental health treatment to design cutting-edge, patient-responsive treatment programs in Tucson, Arizona.

Finding the proper treatment for addiction and mental health in Arizona is essential for lasting recovery. At Cottonwood Tucson, we offer comprehensive, research-based programs designed to address the complex relationship between mental health and substance use disorders.

Our clinical team is multidisciplinary, highly trained, and experienced. For over 35 years, we’ve developed our holistic approach focused on treating the whole person—mind, body, and spirit—through personalized care plans that support long-term healing and wellness. Our understanding of the developing brain, and how addiction and mental health issues can affect the brain’s ability to make a content and confident mood, adds to our ability to treat these issues in adults successfully. This is called co-occurring disorders: when a mental health issue affects a substance use disorder, and vice versa.

What to Expect from Our Arizona Addiction Treatment & Mental Health Programs

All patients who come to Cottonwood’s holistic treatment center in Tucson, Arizona, receive a thorough medical, psychiatric, and psychosocial assessment in their first few days of treatment. We can also provide cognitive, educational, and personality testing, and Eastern-based medical practices like acupuncture for patients who would benefit from them. Our comprehensive assessment program helps the clinical team create a personalized treatment plan optimally responsive to each patient’s unique needs.
