Drug Rehab Centers in Eustis, Florida

From the moment I was introduced to The Refuge, I knew something powerful was about to unfold. What followed was nothing short of transformative. I expanded my capacity to live life on life’s terms, no longer needing to cope with life, but learning how to live it fully. I discovered that boundaries aren’t just something we set with others, but something we honor within ourselves—especially when the outside world may not. I learned to accept myself not just as I was, but as I am, while creating a vision for who I want to become. Acceptance isn’t about staying stuck or glorifying the past. It’s about understanding it—recognizing patterns, asking what they reveal, and deciding what to do with that insight. My path has not been linear. Allowing myself the time to simply be, and to be guided by professionals, was—at once—fear-inducing, frustrating, ego-challenging, and ultimately liberating. Many treatment centers speak of recovery “tools,” but few prepare you to actually use them. The Refuge not only introduces you to these tools, but helps you uncover the motivation and build the inner drive to keep going when it’s hard. Shelly, the Clinical Program Manager; Jessica Gomes, my therapist; Matthew Brinker, therapist; Alex Van Dyke, therapist; and Yogi Ana—all played pivotal roles in my healing. They gently (and sometimes not so gently) pushed me into the uncomfortable places where real growth happens. Just when I thought I was in over my head, they’d ask me to stand—and I’d realize the water was only waist-deep. With their support, I built resilience. To them, I extend my deepest gratitude. And to the community I shared space, time, and the most sacred parts of myself with—my hopes, my fears, and my love—thank you. You are forever part of my healing. To anyone considering this journey: It may not be easy, but you will not be alone—and it will be worth it

Definitely recommend i went through this program and it's awesome from the curriculum to the community. Definitely a healing place.

I was hesitant when my psychiatrist HIGHLY recommended I come to The Refuge. I was at wits end - my depression and anxiety were killing me slowly. I have Complex-PTSD that desperately needed the specialized treatment that The Refuge was able to provide. Don't get me wrong - it's a LOT of work. It's go go go! But the staff GENUINELY cares, from medical (shout out to Nancy and Jessica), therapists (shout out to Nicole, Randy, and Brianna), BHAs (Kim and K), and even food (Justin). They want you to feel better and succeed. You have group therapy sessions that are informative, you have assignments and processing groups, oh, and don't forget Kelly in art therapy! I ended up extending my stay from 30 days to 45 because I needed to, to truly get the most out of it. It sounds cheesy, but I can honestly say that I think they may have saved my life. I can't recommend them highly enough.
