Sierra Tucson developed the Sierra Model® of treatment, which recognizes that all of us exist as mind, body, spirit, and emotions. Therefore, a multidisciplinary team of professional, highly-skilled staff utilize a bio-psycho-social-spiritual approach to create individualized treatment plans that address the whole person. Medical and psychiatric services combine with Twelve-Step philosophy and a full range of traditional and experiential therapies, including EMDR, Equine-Assisted Therapy, and Adventure Therapy. Integrative therapies such as Acupuncture, Chiropractic, Massage Therapy, Qigong, Reiki, Shiatsu, Somatic Experiencing®, Yoga, and Zero Balancing enhance the treatment process.

The Family Program is a hallmark of Sierra Tucson's successful treatment. This dynamic four-day program is included with each person's treatment to enhance long-term recovery and extend healing to the family. Invited family members are given the opportunity to participate in therapy, face their own issues, and work toward resolution. A Couple's Workshop provides an opportunity for all couples in the Family Program to tend to their relationship issues and receive educational and therapeutic support for recovery. A Family Youth Program provides age-appropriate activities for family members 11-17 years of age. Young people begin to understand and emotionally process the turmoil they have experienced and learn new life skills.

The 12-Step philosophy is utilized as a basis for the treatment programs at Sierra Tucson, and individuals are encouraged to use the 12-Step principles in their recovery. Twelve-Step meetings are held on campus, and patients may attend off-campus meetings, as well.
