Why is inpatient treatment necessary?
If a person has previously failed inpatient residential or outpatient treatment, the clinical indication will be a more structured, inpatient environment until the individual’s strong cravings have subsided. Without this controlled environment, these individuals may face overwhelming urges without sufficient support.

The treatment programs at The Delray Recovery Center are designed to provide a foundation for recovery and a framework for a healthy, sober lifestyle. Our integrative treatment program, based on a five phase “step-down model”, provides a comprehensive continuum of care. The first phase is the most structured and intensive; and each phase thereafter offers more freedom. Each individual moves at his or her own speed through the different levels of the treatment process.

  1. Detoxification
  2. Partial Hospitalization
  3. Inpatient Residential Treatment
  4. Outpatient Treatment
  5. Sober Living
Why can’t I do this on my own?
Individuals attempting to discontinue severe addictions without help typically have low degrees of success. Moreover, these individuals risk physical danger during withdrawal.

Physicians and therapists encourage individuals suffering from addiction to get help from qualified physicians and treatment facilities. Moreover, a medically monitored detoxification process is critical to avoid seizures, heart attacks, strokes, and even depression-related suicide during the withdrawal stages.

What is the cost?
The cost of treatment varies based on the level of care needed. We also offer a reduced private pay rate for those families without insurance coverage. For more information, please contact us:
Does The Delray Recovery Center accept health insurance?
Yes. We accept most major health insurance plans. The Admissions Department will complete an insurance verification to determine level of coverage. For more information, please contact .
What is the average length of stay?
The Delray Recovery Center recognizes that each individual’s treatment must be unique. At The Delray Recovery Center’s sober living facility, New Horizons, individuals are welcome to stay even after having completed the program. This allows each person time to develop confidence in their sobriety and relapse prevention techniques needed for the transition from rehabilitation to daily life in society.
What does a typical day include?

How do you accommodate and treat patients with a history of relapse?
As treatment begins at The Delray Recovery Center, each patient is fully assessed on the basis of clinical history, previous treatments, and current conditions. Taking into account previous relapses and other considerations, the primary therapist works with the individual to create a customized treatment plan. For an individual who has suffered multiple relapses, the customized treatment program may include a rigorous focus on relapse prevention, intense individual therapy sessions, and a commitment to a 90 day treatment program combined with sober living and outpatient care beyond the 90 days.
Will after-care treatment be provided and how does it work?
Yes. As treatment comes to an end and individuals leave the campus, true recovery in daily life begins. This is the vital time when an individual begins incorporating the new, healthy lifestyle strategies and routines into daily life.

Recognizing this crucial challenge in an individual’s recovery, The Delray Recovery Center’s aftercare provides unmatched support as the individual leaves campus and integrates back into society. Evening groups, recovery workshops, and individual therapy sessions are some of the options that the individual and primary counselor will consider as part of the customized aftercare program.

Furthermore, active alumni groups from The Delray Recovery Center facilitate the creation and preservation of friendships with program colleagues and individuals who completed the program months or years ago.

Our main facility is located in the historic district of Delray Beach, just minutes from the beach and downtown Delray Beach. “New Horizons Delray,” our affiliated Sober House Community, provides spacious, comfortable apartment living with eye-catching “art deco style” façade and a relaxing “Key West” color palette.

Do you offer religion or spirituality-focused treatment?
Yes, we offer spiritual workshops and groups in which individuals are encouraged to explore their own personal views of life. Experienced professionals provide guidance to question and discover spirituality, religion, and nature in an environment free of judgment. We also offer one-on-one religious counseling and transportation to local religious facilities.
Is family involved in treatment?
The behavior or someone suffering from addiction to drugs or alcohol can be tough for families to handle. Family members feel devastated and powerless over the addiction.

At The Delray Recovery Center, we believe that family involvement is a significant part of the recovery process. Family members will have contact with the primary therapist, may be included in select counseling sessions, and are encouraged to attend programs for family members including:

  • Education on the nature of addiction
  • Relapse prevention tools
  • Coping skills
  • Information on co-dependency and how to break damaging enabling patterns
  • Ongoing communication with the primary therapist treating individual
  • Family therapy sessions
  • Introduction to Al-Anon and other nationwide support groups
Is it possible to have visitors?
Yes. Visitors approved by the client’s primary therapist can visit after the first 3 weeks. Visitation times are scheduled on an individual basis.
Will I be drug tested?
Yes. Throughout the treatment process, frequent and random drug testing will be performed to ensure individuals are maintaining abstinence.
Is smoking or tobacco use permitted?
Yes. Smoking and tobacco use are permitted in designated smoking areas just outside of the clinical office as well as next to the client residence. Smoking is not permitted inside any of the office buildings or living facilities.
