    The focus of cognitive behavioral therapy (also called CBT) is helping people to understand the thoughts and emotions that underlie their addiction with the goal of learning new, healthier and more productive ways to understand and express themselves.
  • Trauma & Associative Awareness Therapy (AAT)

    Associative Awareness Therapy (AAT) uses the brain’s innate ability to adapt to change in a healing way, essentially “retraining” the brain to respond differently to familiar memories of trauma or pain.

    Addiction recovery does not end with discharge after completing a rehab program. Facilities that offer aftercare planning and/or support work with patients to ensure sustainable recovery by helping to plan and make arrangements for transitional or sober living, help with housing, vocational counseling, etc.

ABOUT BOCA RECOVERY CENTER

Located one-half mile from the ocean in Boca Raton, Fla., Boca Recovery Center treats individuals struggling with substance abuse through several levels of care. These include a partial hospitalization program (PHP), intensive outpatient program (IOP), and sober living.

According to its website, the facility prioritizes support for young people, including college students. Detoxification services are not offered on-site, but the facility will make referrals to recommended detox programs. Within the state, Boca Recovery Center is among 24.6 percent of substance abuse treatment facilities that offer a PHP, 43 percent with an IOP, and among 29.2 percent with specially tailored programs for young adults.

TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT

At Boca Recovery Center, the admissions process starts with an assessment, which includes both psychological and medical evaluations. Based on the findings, clients receive customized treatment plans, designed to build on their individual strengths.

As noted, the organization offers two main levels of treatment: PHP and IOP. PHP clients receive a primary therapist, with whom they work with one-on-one and in small groups. As part of the program, they engage in a range of evidence-based modalities, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and trauma-oriented Associative Awareness treatment.

Separate gender-specific and dual diagnosis groups also are offered, along with 12-step facilitation, spirituality groups, life skills training, and case management services. Within the state, Boca Recovery Center is among 53.3 percent of substance abuse treatment facilities to treat clients with co-occurring disorders.

After completing the PHP, clients can step down to the IOP, which helps them transition back to home and community life, and provides treatment, structure, and accountability in the process. IOP clients participate in both individual and group therapy sessions, but for fewer hours than the PHP. This less-robust treatment tract enables clients to focus on securing employment and rebuilding relationships.

Sober living provided by Boca Recovery Center meets the requirements for a recovery residence through accreditation by the Florida Association of Recovery Residences and by the Department of Children and Families. The staff, many of whom are in recovery, provide guidance and support to residents, who continue building a life of sobriety.

Boca recovery saved my life. When I was at my lowest with my addiction I walk through the doors and was greeted with open arms. The staff was amazing and the techs really care about you as a person. My Therapist was always there when i needed to talk. I left boca with so many tools to use to help me stay clean. Boca is by far the best treatment center in south Florida.

B.r.c was the best recovery busisness that I have ever went to for drug addiction! There techs at there facilities need to be paid a lot more money for everything they have to deal with day in and day out! I met so many beautiful humans while I was at boca recovery center and made a lot of life long friendships! The support that the therapist have for the clients is absolutely amazing Ms. Tiesha was so amazing she literally impacted my life in sooooo many positive ways! I am forever grateful for her and my therapist at boca Dexter! He doesn’t sugar coat anything and will give you everything raw and real! The only negative thing that happened to me at boca recovery center is having to leave there facility because I lost my job before going to rehab and my insurance cut out too. So they gave me about a week and came one day and just said hey we’re sorry but the higher ups the people in charge said they can’t help you anymore they won’t give you a scholarship so find somewhere to go!!!! I even told them I wasn’t ready and that I feared relapse or worse and they just said there hands were tied! They got me into a halfway house which was literally the nastiest house I’ve ever stepped foot inside of! They rescue dogs which is amazing but I don’t want to share a super small 8x8 room with another man and a pit bull then on top of all that they were literally selling rocks at the sober house!🤦‍♂️After being pushed out of boca recovery it was only a matter of time before I relapsed because I started going through bad withdrawals from the suboxone that I was prescribed and taking every single day! They kicked me out the doors without any prescriptions or any real help just a call us if you get your insurance figured out!
