Medication management is also available for clients that need medication to treat co-occurring disorders.
Clients also participate in physical and recreational therapies to promote whole body wellness. These therapies include Yoga Pilates, beach excursions, meditation, massage, and art therapy. These therapies are provided in conjunction with counseling services as needed to facilitate client recovery.
