Music has a unique way of reaching into our hearts, helping us express emotions that words sometimes can’t capture. Whether it’s a song that brings back powerful memories or the act of creating music to process complex feelings, music speaks to something deep within us. That’s why the Music Recovery program at LINKS is such an impactful part of the healing journey.
Our program offers clients a chance to connect with music as a tool for self-expression, healing, and growth. It’s not about specific genres—it’s about using the universal language of music to process emotions, share experiences, and find new ways to cope without turning to substances.
You don’t need to be a professional musician to benefit from music recovery. Whether you’ve been writing songs for years or simply enjoy tapping along to the beat, our program welcomes everyone. We encourage clients to explore how music impacts their emotions and how it can become a positive, healing force in their recovery journey.
Through activities like writing lyrics, composing melodies, or simply listening to music in a mindful way, clients tap into their creative side. It’s a chance to express what they’re feeling in a safe, supportive space—sometimes for the first time in a long while.
Music is also a powerful connector. In our group sessions, clients come together to share their creations, listen to one another’s stories, and find common ground through shared experiences. These moments of connection help break down isolation and build a sense of community, both of which are vital in the recovery process.
Clients have opportunities to collaborate on original pieces and, once a month, even head into a professional recording studio to bring their music to life. Walking away with a recorded song is not only an amazing accomplishment—it’s also a tangible reminder of how far they’ve come.
For those who identify as musicians—or even those who just love the local music scene—staying sober while engaging in music can feel challenging. Our program helps clients develop the tools they need to enjoy music and live a balanced, healthy lifestyle. We explore how to navigate concerts, music events, and even the creative process itself without turning to substances.
Supervised outings give clients a chance to practice these skills in real-life situations, helping them build confidence in their ability to stay grounded in recovery while still enjoying the things they love.
Early recovery can be an emotional rollercoaster, and music offers a healthy, constructive outlet to process those feelings. It can calm the mind, boost energy, help access deep emotions like grief, and even bring joy in difficult times. Through music, clients at LINKS discover new ways to cope, express themselves, and connect with others on a meaningful level.
Our Music Recovery program is integrated into both our residential and outpatient treatment options, providing flexibility and a personalized approach. We believe that recovery isn’t one-size-fits-all, and music offers a beautiful, creative path for many on their healing journey.
Whether you’re a lifelong musician or just someone who loves to hum along to the radio, music can be a powerful tool in recovery. At LINKS, we help you harness that power—so you can heal, grow, and move forward with hope. Reach out today to learn more.
Entering treatment is one of the most important investments you will make in life. Our Christian drug rehab understands your need for a smooth transition into addiction treatment—after all, it has already been a challenging road. Therefore, we want to mitigate the difficulty of determining how to finance drug abuse rehab. Because we believe the cost of addiction treatment shouldn’t be prohibitive, we have contracts with several PPO insurance providers to help pay for treatment. Here is a list of insurance providers we work with:
