Cortland Mathers-Suter, MSSA – CEO
Cortland Mathers-Suter entered the addiction treatment field through personal experience with addiction and recovery. His path moved from peer-level work to clinical education to organizational leadership. He holds a BA in Education and a dual Master’s in Clinical Social Work and Social Policy from Case Western Reserve University.
in Education and a dual Master’s in Clinical Social Work and Social Policy from Case Western Reserve University.
Before pursuing graduate work, Cortland served as a programming coordinator at the Tree House Learning Community while completing his undergraduate degree, and later developed an evidence-based curriculum for an addiction treatment organization in Arizona. Clinical practice in SUD and mental health followed, but a conviction that people in recovery needed better systems led him toward organizational work rather than direct practice.
In 2015, he founded AspenRidge Recovery, a person-centered, co-occurring treatment program now operating across five Colorado locations: Denver, Lakewood, Thornton, Fort Collins, and Colorado Springs. AspenRidge holds Joint Commission accreditation and Colorado state licensure, and offers Outpatient Detox, PHP, IOP, and OP levels of care across both a SUD-primary and a mental health treatment track, with a remote treatment option available statewide.
In 2020, he co-developed Colorado Medication Assisted Recovery (CMAR) alongside Michael Damioli, LCSW, C-SAT. CMAR offered MAT-integrated PHP, IOP, and OP programming with an on-site MAT department providing addiction medicine, psychiatry, and medication management, and carried CARF accreditation and state licensure. In February 2025, Cortland led the merger of CMAR and AspenRidge, and now serves as CEO of the combined organization.
