At Rideauwood we offer many program options.
We work with our clients to choose the program approach that will best help them achieve their goals.

After forty plus years of delivering innovative, evidence-based treatment programs, Rideauwood is a specialist in helping individuals find answers at times in their lives when they are overwhelmed by questions.
- Please note that due to high demand, there is a waitlist for our Adult Services. While the wait will vary depending on what program you are screened into after Intake, the wait for our Urgent Substance Use individual counselling is approximately 4 months and the wait for our Substance Use Group Programming is approximately 10 months.
- If you are seeking more immediate services, please have your assessment done at AccessMHA. This regional assessment and referral service will be able to provide you with the most immediate treatment options in the region, as well as refer you to our Rideauwood programs as needed.
- We are working actively to get our wait times down. If you would like to proceed to book an intake directly with us at Rideauwood, please do not hesitate to contact us using the button below.

Has my substance use and/or
behavioural addiction increased
regardless of my efforts to moderate
or stop completely?

someone affected by substance use or a

There is no “right” path-only the
path you choose.
Education
In our education programs, we talk about the “Hows and Whys” of substance use, behavioural addictions, and mental health issues. We also discuss healthy ways to cope.
These educational sessions are tailored to different client groups.
Prevention
Our prevention programs provide resources and tools to participants to increase their resilience.
Harm Reduction
Clients choose to reduce the harms related to their substance use and/or other problematic behaviours. Setting harm reduction goals helps clients minimize harms and enhance their skills and knowledge to improve their health.
Abstinence
Clients choose to eliminate their substance use and/or other problematic behaviours altogether. Clients develop a program path to achieve their goals.
