About East-Coast Recovery

East-Coast Recovery provides residential and outpatient treatment for addiction and dual-diagnoses. Their outpatient programs include residential care, intensive outpatient programs (IOP) and partial hospitalization programs (PHP), or day treatment. They use trauma-informed and personalized care to help each client find and maintain sobriety. East-Coast Recovery offers medication-assisted treatment as needed, and an aftercare program for alumni. Each program begins with a thorough medical assessment and learning clients’ medical histories.
In East-Coast Recovery’s IOP program, clients attend treatment for 3-4 days a week. East-Coast Recovery provides cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), trauma therapy, interpersonal therapy, and experiential therapies for clients in the program. Their IOP treatment also teaches life skills, ways to find and keep a good job, social skills and relationship skills, and addresses the cause(s) of addiction. Their experiential therapies include yoga, guided meditation, breathwork, and adventure therapy.
East-Coast Recovery’s PHP (or day treatment) program welcomes clients for 5 days a week. Therapies like CBT and DBT address addiction and mental health conditions, and help clients identify what might have caused their addiction. East-Coast Recovery leads educational sessions for clients and their families, helping them learn more about addiction, recovery, and managing triggers. East-Coast Recovery also provides on-site AA (Alcoholics Anonymous) meetings for clients in residential treatment, IOP, PHP, or aftercare program.
East-Coast Recovery provides pick-up services for clients who need a ride to their center. They invite family members into treatment too, with family counseling sessions available for clients and their loved ones. After treatment, clients can regularly meet with other alumni and receive further counseling from therapists at East-Coast Recovery.
