Kiwi Recovery

What Kiwi Recovery does

Kiwi Recovery is a Massachusetts-based outpatient mental health and addiction treatment provider operating two clinical locations in Concord and Brookline. The company delivers structured PHP (Partial Hospitalization), IOP (Intensive Outpatient), and outpatient therapy to children ages 8-12, adolescents ages 13-17, and young adults ages 18-25. Treatment is segmented into three age-based programs (Kids, Teen, Young Adult) and further specialized across nine condition-specific service lines including anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, trauma/PTSD, eating disorders, substance abuse, school avoidance, and anger management.

The clinical model is built on evidence-based therapeutic modalities (DBT, CBT, ACT, Motivational Interviewing, Experiential therapies), the ARC trauma framework, and UCLA PEERS-certified social skills training. Animal-assisted therapy (canine and equine) and academic, nutritional, and vocational support are integrated into the care plan. Intake is scheduled within 24 hours, and family involvement is embedded throughout the episode of care, including weekly parent support groups and family therapy sessions.

The business operates on an insurance-reimbursed fee-for-service model, accepting most major insurance providers with upfront insurance verification. The go-to-market motion is sales-led and referral-driven, relying on outreach to healthcare professionals, schools, and families, supplemented by a content/SEO marketing engine and dedicated Clinical Outreach Specialists. The company has helped hundreds of clients to date and was voted #1 for 'best clinical records' out of 250+ peer programs, with leadership anchored by a triple board-certified Medical Director who also serves as the City of Boston's first Chief Behavioral Health Officer.
