Drug Rehab

Delray Recovery Center’s Drug Rehab Program

Situated on the beautiful South Florida coast, our  private facility specializes in treating alcoholism, drug addiction and eating disorders. We also treat associated disorders like depression, anxiety, trauma, sleep disorder and bipolar disorder. Treatment is provided by a professional team of psychiatrists, therapists and physicians.

Delray Treatment Philosophy

Our drug rehab and alcohol treatment programs target all aspects of recovery. Our facility is designed to foster a sense of peace and serenity while the recovery process begins.

Treatment plans are customized for individual needs. Detoxification is carried out under medical supervision in a safe and comfortable setting. Residents receive supportive services to help them practice a new way of life. Regular drug testing helps to maintain continued abstinence.

The program focuses on identifying and changing specific negative attitudes and behaviors that have created and maintained addiction. Using a combination of therapeutic approaches, individuals learn new attitudes, healthy behaviors and effective coping strategies.

Delray’s holistic approach treats mind, body and spirit with group counseling, individual therapy, nutritious meals, massage, Tai Chi, yoga and restorative sleep in a luxurious setting. Residents attend 12 Step meetings, life-skills workshops and educational seminars. The goal is to create a strong foundation of confidence and self esteem upon which to build a fulfilling sober life.

drug rehab at Delray Recovery Center

Our in-patient alcohol and drug rehab programs are a comprehensive curriculum that blends alternative, Holistic, and traditional therapies, including the innovative rTMS treatment, in order to effectively address the personal needs of the client.  So, we customize our rehab programs based on the client’s specific clinical needs in order to provide them with a better chance at overcoming their addiction and experiencing a successful recovery in the process.

Our alcohol and drug rehab programs are comprised of three distinct stages which are:

Detoxification and withdrawal – typically, this is the most difficult and unpleasant stage of the process.  The client rids their body of the substance they were addicted to as well as any residues and toxins of it.  Withdrawal can be extremely unpleasant and the symptoms may persist for three to four days.

Counseling and therapy – the client participates in both group and individual counseling involving certain therapies that target their particular behavioral or mental issues that be at the heart of the addiction or the cause of it.  During this stage, we utilize several therapies in both the group and individual setting such as:

  • Existential therapy teaches that we are never at a standstill, but always recreating and improving ourselves. Residents discover a new sense of freedom, responsibility and purpose.
  • Gestalt therapy helps individuals to achiever wholeness by identifying and integrating all aspects of personality.
  • Narrative and Psychoanalytic therapies teach how past experiences impact present functioning. Past perceptions are reevaluated to create a positive identity.
  • Person-Centered therapy expands awareness of healthy and fulfilling ways to live, while Reality Objectification therapy helps individuals to objectify the world and develop a healthy response to situations beyond their control.

Aftercare and support – once the client is ready to return home to their community, we encourage them to enroll in an aftercare program which involves joining a support group to further enhance and sustain their recovery.

healing broken relationships- Another benefit to the alcohol and drug rehab programs offered at the Delray Recovery Center is that they help to heal broken relationships and promote successful recovery by involving the support of the client’s family.  We believe that the person’s family is a critical component of the treatment and recovery process.  The family is able to participate from the beginning of the treatment process and continue through the duration of the program while focusing on the emotional, mental, and physical levels of the person’s addiction.

Our “Strength to Change” program

The Delray Recovery Center’s “Strength to Change” Program is a professional addiction treatment and recovery program that was developed in order to help the suffering individual overcome their alcohol or drug dependency so that they can live substance-free for life.  It is a customized plan that draws from a comprehensive curriculum and broad range of treatment options to address the clinical and personal needs of the client.  As a result, our clients experience the highest recovery success rate possible and rarely relapse.

These plans were developed through our team of physicians, psychiatrists, and therapists and their collaborative efforts.  Knowing that no two individuals are ever alike, we designed the Strength to Change program for the purposes of providing our clients with their own individualized plan which addresses their personal needs.  Additionally, the focus of the program is to provide a framework for a substance-free lifestyle and a foundation for long lasting recovery.

When the individual enters the Delray Recovery Center’s Strength to Change program, they are typically relying on unhealthy coping mechanisms.  These coping mechanisms involve the individual’s use of alcohol or drugs (or both) in order to handle pain, the pressures and stress of everyday life, and unpleasant emotions.  During the Strength to Change program, the client is encouraged to be honest and open about their situation while learning new ways of thinking so they can replace those unhealthy coping mechanisms.

Addiction harms more than just the user

Most people do not realize or understand how far-reaching the impact of substance abuse, addiction, and dependency can ultimately be.  The addicted individual is quick to proclaim “I’m only harming myself.”  The truth of the matter is that he or she is destroying their family and numerous relationships they have been involved in.  For the suffering individual, their powerful cravings for alcohol or drugs leave them defenseless and out of control.  They are powerless to overcome their compulsion to use a certain substance.

For the family members and other individuals that surround them in their daily lives, they are powerless to understand the person’s suffering and help them.  The addict’s behavior wreaks havoc with these individuals.  They feel devastated and believe that they played a significant role in their loved one abusing substances and getting addicted to them.  In many instances, the addicted individual quickly discovers how the compulsion to do alcohol or drugs overwhelms their desire to quit using the substance.

Suffice it to say, drug addiction impacts the individual and everyone around them.  Parents, spouses, children, and siblings have to deal with the grief that results from the person’s addiction.  Oftentimes, the consequences go beyond the individual’s emotional, mental, and physical levels.  They can impact them spiritually as well.  Additionally, they may have to deal with financial, legal, and social consequences and there are numerous warning signs that indicate when these elements are being affected by the person’s addiction.
