Tribal Healing Program
Native American Program at Royal Life Centers
The Native American program at Royal Life Centers at Spokane Heights implements Wellbriety’s White Bison-certified cultural education initiatives that deconstruct the factors involved with Native American substance use disorders to teach the prevention of and recovery from drug and alcohol addiction.
Within our Native American program, we incorporate culturally-based practices to assist our guests in rebuilding their relationships within themselves and their communities. With a staff of white bison-certified addiction treatment professionals, we provide drug and alcohol abuse assessments, evaluations of co-occurring disorders, and personalized treatment plans to each tribal and non-tribal guest.

TREATMENT THAT HONORS YOUR TRADITIONS
Cultural-Based Healing for Tribal Members
Within our Tribal Healing program, we reintegrate Native cultural customs into our guest’s time in our care. Throughout their stay, our guests collaborate with staff members and other guests, participating in tribal ceremonies, events, and educational courses to experience healing and growth from within.
Spokane Heights’ Tribal Healing focuses on the holistic recovery of our tribal guests. We aim to achieve this through the fusion of traditional, evidence-based treatment practices with traditional Native American philosophies and customs. Within the Medicine Wheel & 12 Steps, our staff of tribal specialists educate our guests on prevention, preparation, and harm reduction tactics regarding alcohol and drug addiction within the scope of Native practices. Additionally, our staff reviews the historical trauma inflicted on native peoples following the introduction to European settlers, offering practical and positive coping skills to aid in their healing from intergenerational trauma.
We at Royal Life Centers are proud to be one of eleven Wellbriety certified substance abuse treatment centers as it affords us the opportunity to honor the centuries-old traditions of holistic healing for any and all tribal members in need of SUD treatment.

Using Culture to Heal Trauma
Addiction treatment for tribal members requires a foundation of culture, tradition, and values, in addition to evidence-based practices. The core of Native culture—the spiritual belief of interconnectedness— is what allowed for a healthy, harmonious existence of tribal communities prior to the introduction of European settlers who attempted to erase Native culture. To revitalize this culture of unity and oneness with the Earth, we at Royal Life Centers work with our guests to reconnect their spirit to all things around them, bringing them clarity and wholeness alongside their sobriety.
Our dedication to providing compassionate care those who seek our help is extended to reach tribal members who deserve a full opportunity to experience a life of sobriety built on their cultural beliefs and foundation of values.
