Behavioral Health Paraprofessional / Care Provider (Mon-Thur)

The Alternative to Meds Center is a licensed holistic residential, behavioral health, and substance abuse treatment facility in Sedona, Arizona. We specialize in helping patients taper off of and find alternatives to medications. Our program is both holistic and integrative. We assess and treat each part of the individual and utilize the best available treatment that will be the most effective. Through the use of an environmental toxin removal program, orthomolecular supplementation, and naturopathic treatments, residents work to restore balance to their brain chemistry, thereby reducing symptoms and reducing the need for medications and other substances.

Our residents travel to us from all over the world to participate in our immersive residential program. We are a small organization of around 50 team members delivering care for up to 17 residents at a time.
