AriseVida means “rise to life” — and that’s what we help people do every day.
Too many people in recovery face barriers: long waitlists, unclear insurance, stigma, and providers who treat symptoms instead of people. We started AriseVida to change that.
We specialize in supporting adults in early recovery, those returning from jail or prison, and anyone facing both addiction and mental health challenges. Our team offers same- or next-day access to Medication-Assisted Treatment, trauma-informed therapy, outpatient programs, and sober living. Even if insurance lapses, our care continues through scholarships and free treatment.
We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all treatment. We believe in real relationships, real access, and a path to real stability. That’s why AriseVida is trusted by clinicians, probation officers, and community partners across Phoenix.
When you’re ready, waiting isn’t an option. We admit most patients the same or next day, so you can start treatment right away. Courts, clinicians, and housing partners also trust us for quick, hands-on referrals.
At AriseVida, we meet you with respect, not assumptions. Whether you’re seeking help for the first time, returning after relapse, or coming from incarceration, you’ll find a safe, compassionate space here. Our trauma-informed team treats every patient like a person — not a problem.
Recovery takes more than one kind of care. That’s why we provide addiction treatment, mental health support, trauma counseling, TMS therapy, and sober housing — all connected under one roof. You don’t have to piece it together on your own.
We’re not a national chain. We’re a Phoenix-based clinic created for this community. Our team knows the realities you face because we live and work here too. We don’t just provide treatment — we stay involved with housing, transportation, and long-term support.
Getting help shouldn’t feel overwhelming. From the moment you reach out, we make the process clear, private, and supportive. Every step is designed around your needs, so you can focus on recovery — not paperwork.
At AriseVida Care, recovery is guided by experts who believe in dignity, integrity, and hope. Our leadership team brings decades of experience in addiction medicine, clinical care, and operations — working together to ensure every patient receives compassionate, evidence-based treatment.
