Comprehensive Addiction Treatment

Through personalized one-on-one sessions, you’ll learn to navigate everyday challenges like stress and anxiety, which often trigger substance misuse, while building strong coping skills to support sobriety and prevent relapse. The owner is a multi-state licensed counselor with over 30 years of clinical experience in addiction recovery, anxiety and depression alongside the treatment of sexual and emotional abuse and trauma.

This background equips her to effectively support clients facing co-occurring conditions with insight and compassion. I appreciate how she blends traditional therapy with alternative approaches to deliver care that feels both personalized and empowering. I also like that she offers convenient lunch hour appointments, making it easier for working clients to access care without disrupting their day.

Another cool thing I found is that she offers modest fees based on 50-minute clinical hours with services covered in full or in part by your health insurance or employee benefit plan. The most attractive aspect is that they support telehealth via video or telephone. This enhances convenience, eliminates transportation barriers to care and saves costs.

Addiction Treatment Programs

Teen & Adolescent Program

Young adults often develop addiction for different reasons than older individuals. That’s why a young adult program in Florida focuses on the unique pressures, needs, and challenges faced by young adults.

Adult Program

Treatment at an adult program in Florida addresses the needs of each individual as they work toward recovery. Programs are designed for men and women ages 18 and up, and include a variety of treatment protocols to match the severity of the addiction, type of substance, and personal situation.

Alcoholism

Each alcohol rehab in Florida offers unique amenities and approaches, but most follow the same general guidelines. Treatment includes detox, rehabilitation, and maintenance. This is a proven approach to provide the greatest results for long-term recovery.

Women's Rehab

Often, women who have a substance use disorder also have a co-occurring disorder. Women’s rehab in Florida often addresses both the addiction and mental health disorder with dual diagnosis treatment.

Opioid Treatment

Opioid rehab in Florida provides the care you need to help you safely and comfortably navigate a path to recovery. Treatment addresses both emotional and physical aspects of addiction, offering individualized tracks and custom programs.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Cognitive behavioral therapy in Florida helps people in treatment to revisit painful thoughts and memories and learn new ways to cope with them. These newly-learned techniques replace substance use and help the individual maintain sobriety.

Rational Behavior Therapy (RBT)

Therapists use rational emotive behavioral therapy in Florida to help individuals evaluate their irrational beliefs surrounding their substance use behaviors. This therapy helps participants change patterns of thinking and behavior to overcome addiction.

Assertive Community Treatment (ACT)

Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) is an integrative, community-based care strategy designed to address the needs of persons with severe and/or complex mental illness or behavioral disorders. ACT is typically provided by a multidisciplinary team of medical and mental health care providers, social workers, therapists, and other specialists, including addiction recovery professionals. These services are frequently provided in the home and community to clients in crisis, those who are clinically unstable, and those who are unable or unwilling to travel to a hospital or clinic for in-person treatment.

Levels of Care

Outpatient Rehab

Outpatient rehab in Florida focuses on relapse prevention and long-term recovery. It typically includes several counseling sessions per week as well as membership in a support group such as NA or AA. This treatment can last several weeks or several months, based on your ongoing needs.

Dual Diagnosis & Mental Health

If you are struggling with both an addiction and a mental health disorder, treatment for dual diagnosis in Florida is necessary for successful recovery. This multidisciplinary approach treats both substance abuse and co-occurring disorders such as bipolar disorder, eating disorders, depression, or anxiety.
