About Florida Palms Academy

Florida Palms Academy is a children's residential psychiatric treatment program in Hollywood, Florida, offering specialized inpatient mental health and behavioral health care for youth ages 6 to 14.

Serving children statewide through Florida's Statewide Inpatient Psychiatric Program (SIPP) framework, the facility, I've seen, integrates psychiatric treatment, accredited education and family therapy to support young people with serious emotional and behavioral challenges.

The program's mission is to stabilize children and prepare them to return to a less restrictive environment with strong family and in-home supports.

Youth and Adolescent Treatment and Therapeutic Services

Care begins with a comprehensive intake assessment, psychosocial evaluation, and multidisciplinary treatment planning, with a typical stay of four to six months.

Children receive residential psychiatric treatment, weekly medication management, and structured therapeutic programs in a community-based setting.

Clients participate in weekly individual, family and group psychotherapy, with approaches such as CBT, DBT, trauma therapy and behavior modification.

Substance abuse screening and counseling are available through a Certified Addiction Professional when indicated, I've found, along with recreational therapy, case management and psychological evaluations.

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.

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.

LGBTQ Friendly 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.

Levels of Care

Inpatient Rehab

Inpatient drug rehab in Florida allows you to receive round-the-clock supervised care while living at the faci...lity. A combination of treatment interventions is typically offered, including individual and group therapy, nutritional counseling, experiential therapies, and medication management.

Detox & MAT

While each drug rehab in Florida is unique, most programs begin with detox. This process can last up to seven ...days. During that time, addictive substances are slowly removed from your system. Medication is often used to alleviate withdrawal symptoms.

Dual Diagnosis & Mental Health
