Ambrosia Substance Abuse Treatment Center
Ambrosia Substance Abuse Treatment Center
Ambrosia Treatment Center offers affordable, world-class drug and alcohol treatment. We are an exclusive treatment center located in the quaint but modern town of Port St. Lucie, Florida. Accepted clients must be 18 years and older.
At Ambrosia Substance Abuse Treatment Center, we believe that a comfortable, nurturing environment is key to our patient’s success in recovery. Spiritual, mental, and physical wellness is necessary for the transition to a new way of life.
We are licensed by the State of Florida to treat addictions of all types. We at Ambrosia have experience treating not only addiction but the mental illness that often goes along with it, sometimes called a "co-occurring disorder".
Our clinical staff is second to none, with each member having over 20 years experience treating drug and alcohol clients from all walks of life. Each has their own specialty and style that complement “our team” of dedicated professionals. Our outcome studies have shown a 65 percent rate of success where the mean is less than 50 percent. This can be attributed to our team of caring professionals and our ability to individualize each client’s treatment. Being small (20) beds enables us to treat the individual and not give “cookie cutter” therapy to our clients.
Ambrosia is a primary drug and alcohol treatment center with the average length of stay being 30 – 60 days with longer stays available if necessary.
Clients are provided a comfortable, compassionate, and nurturing atmosphere, where they are able to participate in their own recovery with little or no distraction. Our goal is to create a foundation in recovery, setting the ground work for long-term success, and a return to a life without drugs or alcohol.
Our clients reside in a modern “Garden Style Apartment setting”, tastefully decorated and neatly appointed with all the comforts of home. Amenities include an Olympic sized pool, gym, and tennis courts.
Affordable World-Class Alcohol & Drug Addiction Treatment
24 Hour Admissions
Admissions are accepted 7 days per week. Our professional staff will carefully guide the prospective client, family member, friend, or professional referral source throughout the admission process.
Family Program
The Ambrosia family program provides education, guidance, and support for families and loved ones impacted by the debilitating effects of chemical dependency.
The family program is free of charge and available to family and significant others of clients in treatment at Ambrosia.
The Family Disease
Chemical addiction is not a disease which only affects the person abusing alcohol or drugs. Rather it influences the lives of those close to the person suffering from the disease.
When chemical addiction begins to take control of one person in the family, other members of the family adjust their own behavior. Often, these changes are attempts to help control or lessen the damage the addicted person is causing. The partner, parent, or child wants to make things better, to cover up for the family behavior of their loved one. You have been forced to react, to adjust, just to keep things in order.
Just as addicted persons are unaware of changes in their behavior, the adjustments made by family members may progress slowly and unnoticed as well.
No matter how well intentioned the actions of family members may be their changes in behavior to accommodate or “bail out” the chemically dependent person do more harm than good. Such misguided support does not help the person to get better but actually assists in keeping the addicted person sick.
