ABOUT THE ORCHID RECOVERY CENTER

Located in tranquil Palm Springs, Fla., The Orchid Recovery Center is a drug and alcohol rehab facility exclusively for women. It provides residential treatment that addresses the underlying issues contributing to addiction, as well as the unique needs and challenges women face in recovery. Co-occurring mental health disorders such as depression and anxiety are also treated. Detox services are available on-site for clients needing medical attention when they arrive.

TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT

All clients receive a psychosocial evaluation within 48 hours of arrival to enable the treatment team to put together the most appropriate program. Treatment can last anywhere from 30 to 90 days and consists of individual cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and experiential group work.

This program is holistic-focused and includes therapies such as art therapy, healing sound therapy, yoga, acupuncture, and massage therapy. There is a special focus on treating unresolved trauma, since the center maintains this is often central in women’s addictions. In addition, life skills therapy is available to teach women how to complete basic tasks without drugs or alcohol and clients can access outside 12-step meetings for recovery. Fitness and nutritional counseling are significant fixtures of the program.

Aftercare options vary from intensive outpatient referrals to sober living placements to a regime of 12-step meetings.

Reviews from 14 alumni were overwhelmingly positive at the time of this writing, with 13 reviewers reporting a good experience and only one reviewer reporting a negative experience. Most gave five out of five stars for treatment effectiveness and reported feeling that the rehab gave them the proper tools to aid in recovery. “This place taught me to trust myself and others. It helped give me the tools I needed,” Jessi wrote.

Six alumni surveyed by Best-rehabs.com on many different indicators gave mostly four- and five- out of five-star ratings for accommodations, staff support, exercise options, and staff level of training. Most alumni appreciated the rehab’s female-focused environment and gave high five-star ratings for the inclusion of holistic approaches. C.B. told Best-rehabs.com: “The holistic, mind-body-spirit approach and women centeredness of the program helped me heal.” Larrydoane agreed. “I choose a women only facility because we are different and we understand each other. After researching numerous facilities I choose and Orchid and it was a great choice.”

Alumni also commented on the caring and helpful staff, with one alum, J.B.S., mentioning the “strong therapists.” Another reviewer, Susan, praised a “wonderful therapist who has made me realize my life is too precious to gamble with” and Corle felt “all the Techs were kind and courteous.”

WHAT FRIENDS & FAMILY SAY

Of the three family members who posted reviews at the time of this writing, all were positive overall with five-star ratings for treatment effectiveness, meals, and accommodations. “Great facility, saved my daughters life and brought our family back together,” Sharloke wrote.

A loved one named P.A.R. gave The Orchid five stars in a number of key categories, including staff support, holistic offerings, leisure activities, and family participation. However, P.A.R. commented the biggest weakness of the program was its cost, describing it as “very expensive,” and writing to Best-rehabs.com: “I feel there are other centers just as good for much less money.”

  • All the Techs were kind and courteous. I want to thank one woman in particular for her patience and support on the occasion that I had a "melt down." However, there were instances where rules were applied differently to different clients.

  • My wonderful therapist who has made me realize my life is too precious to gamble with. Another woman was like my second therapist who made it clear to me that addiction is a disease and has helped me understand the science behind it which resulted in me surrendering my power over it. One woman who is always so sweet no matter what the situation is, she always can make me smile. Another woman being upbeat and positive and always there to talk to when you need someone this one woman who literally has persuaded me to not AMA before, and im forever greatful for her. Then this one woman who has made it easy to open up to and feel comfortable telling her how i feel one lady who has always been so kind and caring and has made me like a part of this little family. One staff member who is so sweet and makes it enjoyable waking up in the mornings. Another woman is also very loving and can always put a smile on my face one staff member in particular is so sweet and so funny she knows how to turn a frown upside down. Two woman have shown me how much they care by allowing me to come back and showing me respect and believing in me.

    The cost was way high. I feel there are other centers just as good for much less money. I think it was beneficial but she relapsed and is now in jail.

  • The Orchid Recovery Center helped me immensely. The devil's drug took my soul for some time, and the things that I did to myself and others because of it were difficult to handle to say the least. The beautiful staff at Orchid helped me to work through these things, to heal and overcome. I am working on becoming my best self - meth-free - and Orchid has helped me so much. I don't know where I would be right now if I hadn't gotten to the center. Thank you so much Orchid!!
