Maple Mountain Recovery

About

Maple Mountain Recovery operates from a residential campus at the base of Maple Mountain in Mapleton, Utah, accommodating sixteen residents in an intimate setting that blends functional medicine with trauma-focused psychotherapy. Founded in 2014 by Bud Harper, the program distinguishes itself through its integration of biomedical diagnostics — including food sensitivity testing, hormone assessment, and neurotoxin screening — with psychotherapeutic modalities such as EMDR, Internal Family Systems, Accelerated Resolution Therapy, and somatic therapy. Neurofeedback provides a neurophysiological dimension to the treatment model, while equine therapy, sound baths, and art therapy offer experiential channels for processing material that resists verbal articulation. The functional medicine component operates from the premise that inflammation, hormonal imbalance, and environmental toxicity contribute to psychiatric symptomatology in ways that conventional psychiatry frequently overlooks. Joint Commission accredited, the program serves adults struggling with substance use disorders, trauma, depression, anxiety, and co-occurring conditions within a treatment philosophy that addresses the root causes of suffering across biological, psychological, and spiritual dimensions.

Depth Orientation

Maple Mountain integrates functional medicine diagnostics — including food sensitivity testing, hormone panels, and neurotoxin screening — with trauma-focused psychotherapies such as EMDR, Internal Family Systems, and somatic therapy, reflecting a systems-oriented understanding of psychological suffering as rooted in both psyche and soma. The use of neurofeedback alongside IFS and equine therapy indicates a treatment model that addresses nervous system dysregulation at multiple levels. Sound baths, art therapy, and equine work provide experiential and symbolic pathways to material that may not be accessible through verbal processing alone.
