Business Professionals
Success in business doesn’t come without sacrifice. For business professionals, high performance at work means overcoming significant challenges. Whether you’re a solo business owner, in a leadership role at your company, or an entrepreneur, you're an expert at what you do. That does not mean you can handle addiction on your own. That’s where Parkdale Center can help. We're experts at getting smart, high-achieving, hard working professionals through a condition that they don’t know how to conquer.
Surrender may not be in your DNA, but asking for help with addiction is not a failure or a weakness. It's actually a sign of great leadership, self-awareness, and insight. Parkdale Center’s programs are designed for professionals as smart and driven as you. Your peer group in early recovery is an important part of your recovery journey. Success is more likely if you are around others who are equally intelligent and successful so they can challenge and support you in the way you need. Our clientele includes doctors, nurses, lawyers, judges, politicians, business owners, teachers, and professors, among many others. By focusing our programs on professionals, we provide a supportive, non-judgmental environment where everyone can thrive.
Parkdale Center understands the challenges of balancing your career, your personal life, and your sobriety. Privacy and discretion are paramount! We understand your desire to find a private space to heal. Parkdale maintains strict patient confidentiality while adhering to all HIPAA regulations.
We also understand you may be concerned about your business during your absence. We provide limited time and access to your phones and computers so that you can check in on your business. We have a busy schedule that demands your full attention, but we understand that you will need some time to check in on things at home.
In addition to our Partial Hospitalization, Intensive Outpatient, Aftercare, and Monitoring programs, we help professionals work with various regulatory, legislative, investigative, monitoring, and treatment organizations. We want you to have a smooth transition back to “real life.”
Our Programs adamantly promote public safety while complying with all treatment recommendations from involved parties and the local, state, and federal authorities. This is why you see the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) standards accreditation seal of approval on our website. We take these standards very seriously.
How The Process Works
Each professional will carry the weight of their career, responsibilities, and work/life balance differently. At Parkdale Center, we teach you how to manage the stressors and triggers in your life that have led you down the path of addiction. Your work identity, whether you are a nurse, lawyer, physician, pilot, corporate executive, athlete, laborer or engineer, influences many of life’s outcomes and opportunities.

We don’t just want you to meet your potential; we want you to form a relationship with it. The time post-IOP is referred to as “Aftercare”, which for many, leads to new beginnings. Long-term sobriety is attainable, but it doesn’t happen the minute you quit using. It takes the creation and development of a support system. At Parkdale, we are dedicated to helping everyone acquire this support - the professional in recovery, the family, the employer and anyone willing to engage. Parkdale is here for you through the whole stages of recovery.
- Long-term sponsor engagement
- Group meetings to create a supportive environment
- Continued support for families, employers, and colleagues, as desired.
If you’re committed to staying clean and sober, but you’re having trouble finding work in your profession, Parkdale will do the best we can to help guide you. You are not alone!

Parkdale gave me the tools to save my life. They didn't save my life, they've given me the tools...I'm alive, and I've got tools and I'm happy.” – D.F.
Getting the science [of addiction] from Dr. Dave, Dr. Chris, and others—understanding my disease kind of put the whole picture together. That really helped. - B.M.
I feel like I have a new start. I feel like I’m ready to push myself to make changes, and I feel like I’m open to the changes I have to make – realizing that it’s going to be uncomfortable and that I am going to have to push myself—because I can. I know I can do it.” – K.W.
At first, you're afraid because you don't know if they're going to judge you or not, but you quickly realize that everybody is here for you, and they're on your side. It's a very non-judgmental atmosphere.” – Z.M.
