Our vision is to help every person and family struggling with drugs, alcohol, or mental health issues get on the path to recovery and good health. Our mission is to provide integrated modern day addiction treatment at the highest level of quality, so every patient has the opportunity for a better life.

The Florida House Experience is a medically integrated facility where your MD, Psychiatrist, Neuroscientist, Clinician, Nurse, and Case Manager will work in partnership to solve your substance use disorder or mental health issue. The Florida House employs a team of highly qualified, licensed medical and clinical professionals to help you get better. We provide all different facets of treatment in order for our patients to receive a comprehensive recovery plan. By addressing each area of living (e.g. physical,mental, emotional, spiritual, and social) patients are able to establish lives free of drugs and alcohol through a supportive and guided process.

National Association of Addiction Treatment Providers

Medical Aspect of Treatment

The Florida House Experience uses a true, multi-disciplinary team approach when it comes to the medical aspects of addiction treatment. Upon arrival, each individual is given a full and complete evaluation to determine the medical and psychiatric conditions that may be contributing to or are exacerbated by the addiction. From there, we begin to detox our patients in a controlled and safe environment where they are monitored 24 hours a day by our experienced medical team. This stage provides the clinical team with the vital knowledge needed to develop an effective treatment plan for each individual. The FHE medical team follows our patients through the full continuum of care to continue to address the medical aspects of addiction.

Clinical Aspect of Treatment

The clinical team team’s approach is rooted in psychodynamic theory, motivational enhancement, acceptance-commitment, and cognitive behavioral therapies that focus on the thinking and behavior often driving addiction. FHE wants to understand the underlying causes of addiction in each individual that walks through our facility doors. The specialty clinical services provided at FHE are innovative in the substance abuse and mental health field, including: DBT, EMDR, Trauma Resolution, and Spirituality. Because addiction is a family disease, we also conduct weekly and monthly therapy sessions that involve the families of those participating in drug or alcohol addiction treatment. These sessions are led by master level and licensed therapists so that our patients have the tools and strategies necessary to get and remain better.

Neurological Aspect of Treatment

FHE employs a team of Neuroscientists and Psychologists to quantitatively evaluate exactly where addiction has affected your brain. Neuro-rehabilitation at The Florida House Experience includes a constellation of science and evidence based approaches, beginning with bi-neuronal heart rate variability (HRV) biofeeback, neuro-psychological testing, quantitative electroencephalographs (qEEG), and a comprehensive package of statistical braing mapping and comprehensive clinical reporting. From there, the neuro-rehabilitation team makes treatment and companion protocol recommendations, which can include: Neurofeedback training (NFT); electrical & magnetic direct pulse stimulation; and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS)

Family Aspect of Treatment

Research has shown that families play a pivotal role in overcoming addiction. At The Florida House Experience, we boast a strong family program that includes a personal Family Therapist who is working with family members at least weekly. This begins in the inpatient setting and continues through the outpatient setting and even after discharge. FHE also provides a monthly 3-day Family Workshop for families to come for more intensive treatment with their loved one(s). Our family involvement does not stop there, as we offer support groups for families even after the patient has discharged.

Holistic Aspect of Treatment

The holistic approach to treatment at The Florida House Experience focuses on the wellness of the physical body. In addition, the goal of holistic treatment is to focus on the metaphysical aspect of the human being. To do this, at FHE we utilize a combination of neuroscience, expressive therapies, chiropractic services, mindfulness meditation, physical fitness, massage therapy, and health & nutritional education. Focusing on the importance of wellness gives patients a comprehensive understanding of addiction treatment.

Aftercare Aspect of Treatment

We understand that support is a huge part of the success that may come from addiction recovery. Without support, those in addiction recovery would not have the motivation needed to continue their journey. After treatment, you don’t have to rush back into daily life. The Sober Skills program at The Florida House Experience provide a safe, controlled, and supportive environment after treatment, so that you can continue to work on treatment goals while gradually implementing areas of daily life, like school, work, or community involvement. Additionally, our alumni services are some of the best in the country, providing all of our treatment graduates a safe place to come and share their success stories, along with receiving medical, psychiatric, and clinical help post-treatment. We love to stay in touch with our alumni and find different ways to get together to promote the family environment we have created here at The Florida House Experience.

Why we’re different

The Florida House Experience (FHE) is a nationally recognized dual diagnosis and trauma-informed substance use disorder treatment center, employing science-grounded and evidence-based therapies, superlative medical care, and comprehensive wellness programs to help adults of all ages achieve life-long recovery from drugs and alcohol. We understand that addiction is complex and that there is no single treatment that will work for everyone.

Our center differs from other addiction treatment facilities in that we use a combination of medical, Neuro-Rehabilitative, clinical, psychiatric, holistic, and case management approaches to get to the root of the issue, treat it, and and address any life areas that were hurt by the addiction. By quantitatively diagnosing individuals and by offering a complete continuum of treatment care, we can tailor protocols to suit each patient’s individual needs. As a result, our patients learn to utilize the right tools to successfully achieve long-term recovery.

Groups at Florida House Addiction targets the brain, and at FHE we believe that understanding the effects is vital to treating the addiction. Quantitative EEG Brain Mapping is one of the Neuro-Rehabilitative services that are unique to The Florida House Experience. It provides a complex map of the brain’s functionality and efficacy, to determine how drugs or alcohol have affected the brain over the course of active addiction. Treatment should not only be about the behavioral aspects of addiction but the biological and neurological aspects as well. If we can better understand how the brain is affected by addiction, we are better suited to treat it.

Female Groups - Florida House Supported by the qEEG brain mapping, we provide numerous biofeedback and stimulation therapies to regulate and maintain healthy brain activity that may affect or be the causes of addiction. In addition, FHE’s Neuro-Rehabilitative services help patients train their brains in ways that support recovery post-treatment. The Florida House Experience include the following practices in its Neuro-Rehabilitative model: deep brain stimulation therapy, computerized cognitive brain training, High-frequency pulsed electromagnetic stimulation, electrical nerve stimulation therapy, quantitative electroencephalography (qEEG), QEEG guided Neurofeedback Florida house training, heart rate variability and biosound feedback, and comprehensive neuro-psychological testing.

We understand and recognize that addiction recovery is not just about refraining from using drugs or alcohol; it is about deciphering the underlying causes of addiction. Treatment at The Florida House Experience aims to confront these issues so that they can be overcome. Additionally, we address family dynamics, a vital part of the recovery process, because we understand that addiction does not solely affect the person who is afflicted, it also affects every person that loves that individual. We also provide in-depth case management services, so that any occupational, vocational, legal, or social issues can be addressed while you are in treatment. During treatment, you will be able to dive deeper into the root cause of your addiction, and also be aware of and address any other factors that contribute to the cycle of addiction in your life.

Addiction is a chronic brain disorder

Addiction is now defined as a brain disorder according to the American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM). Long believed to be a behavioral issue or moral lacking, this new study confirms that addiction is a neurological problem and needs to be treated as such. For addicts, this mean that treatment will continue to move towards studying what is going on in the brain, and not only behavioral and spiritual problems. Addiction is a primary disease, and not a secondary disease of another psychiatric issue. After decades of research, these findings will ensure that addiction will no longer be treated as a problem with the individual, just as heart disease would not be blamed on a patient. As a result, treatment will be more available to accurately treat this brain disorder and create a better support system for the people who are suffering from the disease of addiction.

Testimonials

I just wanted to drop you guys a note letting you all know how much I appreciate everything you did for me. I was such a mess when I first got there and everyone helped me do things I couldn’t do for myself. I just hope I was as nice an respectful to everyone there as you were to me. Thank you to all the Nurses, Tech’s and Housekeeping staff. You all make such a great team. The one thing I know for sure is that I would have never made it through the withdrawal symptoms without your help. Thank you all so much

Heather

“I’m Heather, I’m from Colorado, I came up to Florida House, to Florida actually, from the Island of Saint Croix. That’s where I ended up being, hitting my bottom. I came to Florida House scared. I had reached the end of my rope. I had been out there, addicted and an alcoholic for about 17 years. I learned a lot about myself at Florida House, things I never thought I could experience, things that I was afraid to face about myself. I learned a lot of honest truths. I worked with a lot of really good people. I did some things I never thought I could do and I started living life soberly. I’ve been sober now for 10 months and I owe it all to Florida House. It was the first institution I went in to. The only one, hopefully forever, and they turned my life around. It’s been an amazing experience. I’m now involved with the alumni. I really enjoy giving back. We do things like habitat for humanity, some relay for life, just all sorts of extracurricular activities that help us give back to the community in a way that we can stay active and helping other alcoholics is what it’s all about. I found my higher power at Florida House, I found a lot of good friends and I’m living happy, sober, and free for ten months now. Thank you. “

Since my son was 15 years old, drugs ruled his life. After attending multiple rehabs where they glossed over the intrinsic pathology of a drug addict, multiple relapses followed. At 28 years old, my son continued to spiral down a dark, deep tunnel where death’s hands were holding on tightly. He brought addiction to heights I never imagined possible. After open heart surgery, he still hadn’t reached rock bottom. Certain I would be planning his funeral, he lie hooked up to a respirator in the Neuro ICU of Delray Beach Hospital. Suddenly, April 8th, 2011, fate intervened in the names of Sherief and Robin of Florida House Experience who opened their arms, hearts and treatment facility to my son. For the first time in 13 years, my son was clean for 5 months. It was only then that I saw a glimmer of the man he could become.
