Healing isn’t one-size-fits-all. At Bold Steps, every part of our treatment model is deliberate, structured, and centered on the person in front of us.

More Than a Treatment Center — A Full Healing Experience

When you walk through our doors, you’ll find more than therapy rooms and schedules. You’ll find a place built with intention — where every group, every session, and every program is designed to support long-term healing. We believe recovery means more than stopping use; it’s about helping people rebuild their lives, reconnect with their families, and discover stability again.

Our Philosophy of Care

We believe that lasting recovery is built on three commitments:

  • Intentional Programs: Nothing at Bold Steps is pieced together. Every group and therapy session follows a structured curriculum designed to support progress.
  • Integrated Therapies: We combine evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT, and EMDR with holistic practices such as yoga, mindfulness, equine therapy, and sound healing.
  • Ongoing Support: Recovery doesn’t end when treatment does. Our family therapy and group therapy programs, along with alumni and family support groups, extend care into everyday life.

This philosophy keeps us grounded in what matters most: helping each person create meaningful, sustainable change.

Our Vision

Bold Steps was created with a simple vision: to give people in Essex County access to recovery care that is both clinically excellent and deeply human. We envision a community where individuals and families can heal together, with the right balance of structure, compassion, and support.

Our goal is to be more than a treatment provider. We want to be a trusted partner in the journey toward health and stability — for today, and for the future.

About Our Team

Behind Bold Steps is a team of passionate professionals committed to walking with you through every stage of recovery. Our staff includes licensed clinicians, therapists, and support specialists who bring both expertise and compassion to their work.

We believe recovery is most effective when people feel seen and supported. That’s why our team works collaboratively — combining clinical insight, lived experience, and holistic practices to create care that feels both structured and personal.

Even as our North Andover location grows and welcomes new staff, one thing will remain the same: a team culture rooted in respect, empathy, and the belief that every person deserves the chance to heal.
