Mental Health & Addiction Treatment in Florida

Beautiful place, the staff are great and actually care. Its small so I always felt seen and heard. Plenty of snacks and food options with access to them up to 11pm. Everyone always knew my name and will tell my addict friends about this place.

This is my second time in treatment, 8 years ago and again now after having 5.5 years in recovery. With three weeks in, CBH has been a complete 180 in terms of the therapeutic approach to my self-worth and core identity. To put it simply, CBH embodies care and dignity in every way — from the culture they cultivate and lift up among clients, to the perception-changing yet safe and trusting relationship with my individual therapist, to the responsiveness and genuine reciprocity with staff, I don’t know what magic model CBH has uncovered but compassion is a through line from the top level programming to the small, every day interactions. Special shout out to:
– Sarah P for meeting me exactly where I was when I came in, then lovingly and expertly guiding me to literally uncovering and sitting with my inner child in a way I have never experienced before
– Kelly for surfacing and removing any fears I had prior about my spiritual search for truth and healing, it’s hard to put into words the healing power of her energy and touch but anyone blessed enough to experience and be open to it will walk away changed forever
– Carla, Jake, Gary, and Raquel for facilitating group in such a way that did not merely present healthy CBT / DBT and other mindfulness practices but which let us individually and as a group flow organically into places of genuine vulnerability to heal
– Triple A tech team (Alicia, Alexa, Ashley) for managing so many constant requests and questions from me and the clients with such grace, reassurance, and openness (especially for being my morning alarm clock!)
– the nighttime tech squad (Cindy, Mikey, Shakila, & Sebastian) for being so genuinely interested in connecting with each individual resident, and constantly thinking about ways to make the evenings just fun together (mafia was hilarious, and Cindy’s ice cream social and fresh baked cookies were chef’s kiss)
– Barbara, Ryan, & Clint for making me feel so at peace from my first phone call when I knew I needed help but didn’t know what place was “right” to making me feel heard and seen every time I shared something — a huge change from my first time in treatment where it felt like I just needed to “shut up and listen”
– Lauren for holding the ship steady with clearly a hundred things coming at her at any given moment, all while still keeping the mission of compassion alive and well in the day-to-day operations
– Tyler for his riddles helping me to rebuild my brain cells and for taking time to talk with me 1:1 and feel part of the great work CBH is doing while I was still in treatment (I didn’t know alumni coordinators could spend time doing that lol)
– and last but certainly not least, Elena for putting the WORK into case work — managing every single patient case, from paperwork to calls to constant client pop ins, with a hopeful, loving touch, always finding options and solutions to work and life stuff that eased my fear and anxiety every time I walked out of her office

From everything I’ve experienced with my time in recovery, Compassion is that rare diamond in the rough of mental health and substance abuse treatment — a place that lives up to its name and vision of realizing a world that can change and heal by fostering that change and healing within each person who is open and willing to uncovering that love and understanding within themself first.

Compassions gets a 5+++ star from me. The staff is wonderful. They all, truly, show compassion and dignity to all of their clients. The small campus is gorgeous with a serene environment. The staff goes above and beyond to have fun evenings with the outdoor big movie screen, special desserts, and music nights. Being near the ocean brings in a nice cool breeze. The groups were very enlightening for me on my journey to recovery. The therapy staff gets another 5 +++ star from me. You cannot go wrong coming here. I appreciated that the client to staff ratio was balanced. During my stay, the average number of clients residing here was 15. This allowed me to get the best care that I needed, rather than the larger establishments with over 50 clients at a time.
You will leave Compassions with a strong feeling of renewed strength and sobriety.

The Staff along with the Medical Providers have been amazing. Throughout my stay here they were consistent. I want to say Thank You for helping me achieve my goals.

CBH gave me a second shot a life. I’ve grown so much in my stay. I recommend to anyone going through mental health or addiction issues!!!! Ms cindy, Ms Elena, ms Ashley, and ms Lauren are the best!
