Unfortunately this is not my first center but definitely the nicest I have been to. All of the staff have a compliment coming. Cleanliness, FOOD, Case Management and the Behavioral health techs were in-tune and extremely helpful during my stay. Shout-out to Jaquelene, Tyrell, Tara and Deejha. "LOVE"

Accepted Insurance

Please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Ember Recovery Center works with several private insurance providers, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Other Forms of Payment

Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

The first step of the recovery process involves the removal of all drugs and alcohol from your system while under 24/7 medical supervision. Known as a medically assisted detox, you are closely monitored by medical staff who can provide medications, if necessary, to help alleviate any potential withdrawal symptoms. Medical detox is usually followed by a period of inpatient addiction treatment.

Clients typically choose inpatient rehab when they are in early recovery or are experiencing a crisis that puts them at an increased risk of relapse. They reside at the treatment center for the length of their program, which may range from two weeks to more than 18 months, depending on the program design. Intensive psychotherapy is often the primary treatment modality, but clients in inpatient care may also receive holistic treatment and recovery-focused life skills training.

Rehab aftercare programs are a collection of highly individualized services designed to promote long-term recovery. These services evolve as your needs change. Case managers and recovery teams typically begin formulating the rehab aftercare service plan early in the recovery process to facilitate your reintegration back into the home, workplace, and community.

Treatments

When a person has alcohol use disorder (AUD), also referred to as alcoholism or alcohol addiction, they experience withdrawal symptoms when they stop drinking. This physical dependence results from overuse of alcohol, which may be used as a coping mechanism or escape. Individuals who have AUD can overcome the alcohol addiction through alcohol rehab in Florida. This treatment process involves essential therapy and supports to help the individual achieve and maintain recovery.

In Florida, substance abuse treatment focuses on treating mental health and substance use disorders concurrently to improve recovery outcomes and overall health. Levels of care include medical detox, outpatient, residential treatment, and intensive outpatient programs. Clinicians utilize evidence-based therapies such as dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) or medication-assisted treatment, group therapy, and skills training activities. This comprehensive approach to treatment helps to ensure sustained recovery.

Programs

Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.

Clinical Services

Therapists who apply cognitive behavioral therapy in Florida believe patient thoughts and behaviors are closely linked. They use this treatment method to help clients change their thought patterns so they can also change behaviors and break free from substance abuse.

Dialectical behavior therapy in Florida consists of individual therapy and group instruction. This structured program is a form of psychotherapy that incorporates the development of skills for managing emotions and relationships.

Life skills are the core skills you need for daily success. They can include self care, stress management, daily routines, and emotion control. Rehab treatment includes the development of these skills so you have the tools you need for long term recovery.

Individual therapy often includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. This is a structured approach to identifying and changing negative thought patterns. During therapy you learn how what you think drives your actions so you can develop healthier coping strategies to manage addiction triggers and reduce drug use.

Group therapy provides a safe and supportive environment for people in Florida who are struggling with drug addiction. There you can openly discuss the challenges and progress you're making without fear of judgment from your peers who experience many of the same things you are.

During family therapy sessions, you navigate the complexities of addiction and are provided tools to help improve communication and resolve conflicts. When you work together, families can better support their loved one's recovery and restore balance and harmony within the household.

This was my first time in recovery. I was scared shitless the whole way here. I have a few personal shout outs but don’t let that fool you, all of the staff really cares about us. First the Kitchen staff, Tabby Kelly and Barb don’t get enough recognition. They handle dozens of personalities with grace and accommodates everyone’s needs with a smile. Drew was my driver here and one of the techs, man did he do the lords work getting me calm and really listening like he’s known me my whole life. Esteban’s spirit is so bright and fruitful I could always count on him to lift me up when I’m in my feelings. Jacqui and Tailor run the best group activities. They’re consistent yet not repetitive and really allow you to express yourself without judgement. The size of the community is not over whelming and allowed us to become family. Devin and Kristine gave me a save space for great one on one, they could recognize a change in my mood and give me the time and attention to vent it out. I will hold the relationships with the people I met here for as long as possible. Thank you Ember for bringing me back to myself.

The only reason why I am giving this facility one star is because I can truly say what my whole heart with the exception of a handful of people they don’t care about long-term recovery. They only care about money.. When I left there a couple of weeks ago, I wanted to do IOP because I knew that I needed to go back to work and I was very clear about what my recovery meant to me and they made me feel like I was supported if I did what they wanted me to do which was go to another treatment program that they owned and I couldn’t do that! So that meant that I was no longer a cash call for them and they didn’t care about me and the sad part is my recovery truly does mean a lot to me. My withdrawal was very very bad and I’m still struggling and the only people in that facility, they have been consistent with me. And I will name them Tara, Sid, and Candace! I’m not saying that my stay there was completely bad, but none of them were consistent about anything that they did. I would also like to give a shot out to the cooking staff. They were good to me until new people came in.! But hey God got my back and I will make sure that I do what I need to do for my recovery. No thanks to Stephanie and my therapist! And I love love me some DREW!! And thanks Devin and Rick you and Tina need to new jobs! Racism has no business being in the business that you were in!
