Spring Hill Recovery Center is a private, residential addiction treatment program set on a secluded 70-acre woodland campus in Ashby, MA. The center offers individualized, trauma-informed residential care with medical and psychiatric support, integrated family programming, and a strong wellness focus including fitness, yoga, and chef-prepared meals.
Spring Hill uses a whole-person approach that blends evidence-based psychotherapy (CBT, DBT elements, Motivational Interviewing) with practical life-skills, case management, and optional medication-assisted treatment when clinically appropriate. Daily programming typically combines group curriculum (full-day format) with frequent individual clinician meetings and family psychoeducation to support sustained recovery. The clinical team includes addiction psychiatrists and nurse practitioners who partner with therapists and case managers to tailor plans for dual-diagnosis clients and those with trauma histories.
The campus includes gender-separate residences (Michael’s Building for men and three Poet’s Cottages for women), a Barn Dining Hall with upstairs yoga/group space, a fully equipped fitness room, recreation areas, and extensive outdoor spaces for walking, meditation, and community events like bonfires and outdoor movie nights. Spring Hill also coordinates outpatient continuation services through a nearby Quincy outpatient center, arranges transportation when needed, and provides post-discharge planning and alumni supports to help transitions back to community living.
