I have sent my loved one to various other drug and alcohol treatment centers without any success. What can your program do differently that will help our family and loved one? Our drug and alcohol treatment program is innovative, and it works. We refuse to treat just the symptoms of drug addiction.
We treat the problem for what it really is: an innocent attempt to find happiness, inner-peace, serenity, excitement, etc.through outside sources such as drugs or alcohol. Unfortunately, this effort created a habitual pattern (habit) which spiraled out of control. Just as happiness can never be obtained from outside-in sources such as drugs or alcohol, neither can you or your loved one’s desire for change. All of our procedures are designed to build the framework necessary for introspection so that you or your loved one can discover their inner realized truths concerning the addiction problem. These self-manufactured truths then create an internal drive for you or your loved one’s change process. The following represents some of our innovative approaches that make our program special.
We help our guests overcome any resistance they may have to treatment: We label what others call denial for what it is – resistance (see The Denial Myth). Resistance to treatment is an insecurity born out of fear. Our system is designed for, and our counselors are trained to help our guests in overcoming the fear, perceived or not, and subsequent resistance to treatment by providing processes and procedures that assist them in creating insights. Unlike unsolicited advice, insights are realized truths that are manufactured internally and are therefore real to those who create them. These self-manufactured realized truths stimulate a rapid change process within the individual which overcomes fear and resistance.
We help to lower our guest’s physical drug cravings: The physical health realization portion of the program reduces the physical cravings for the drug and enhances the health of you or your loved one. We utilize a series of exercise, and spa therapies along with proper nutrition and restful sleep to improve the physical health and overall well-being of our guests. When the cravings for the drug or alcohol subsides, you or your loved one will begin to physically feel better which stimulates hope and the internal desire for change. You can start the transformation process now by taking that first step and calling (855) 400-6190. Our knowledgeable and caring counselors are here to help and will answer any questions. All calls are strictly confidential.

How important is the size of your treatment center? The size of our facility is another reason for the success we’ve experienced at Gulf Breeze Recovery. As we have discussed in greater depth in our Blog article “The Goldilocks Theory in Choosing a Drug Rehab.” Gulf Breeze Recovery is large enough to provide professional medical and counseling services, but small enough to be friendly and to care for all of our guests. If you enjoy socializing with other guests and getting to know others, there is plenty of opportunities to do that along with our private beach area overlooking the water, playing a game of ping pong, pool, or even corn-hole out on our lawn during free time. If you prefer some quiet time and space to reflect, there are plenty of cozy areas for reading, reflection and personal conversations away from the general group. Our facility was specifically designed for our guest’s comfort and safety; it was never a house that guests have to cram into.

My loved one has been to several rehab centers and is killing his/herself. My family has given up. How can I help my family understand that we cannot abandon him/her? You may be surprised, but you are taking the correct approach by researching substance abuse recovery centers and not giving up. We can help your family and your loved one. Most “traditional” programs are all the same. Some centers may have a little different “twist” or added feature to their program, but the concept and program are all based on the same book and philosophy. Our program is different, refreshing, innovative, and successful and has helped many people who have attended other facilities and, for whatever reason, have been unsuccessful.
Your family has earned the right to be disappointed and to feel the way they feel. Your family has probably been told on several occasions that, since your loved one is not responding positively to treatment, that he or she is in denial (see the denial myth) and must hit “rock bottom” and when that level is reached then he/she will be open to receiving help. This line of thinking is understandable but begs the question: what is your loved one’s definition of “rock bottom?” For some people “rock bottom” could be losing a spouse, home or job, for others it could be death; no one knows. Perhaps there may be another way of looking at the problem.
Most well-meaning drug and alcohol treatment programs utilize the same “traditional” form of therapy that is based on outside-in processes such as attending meetings and performing routines or rituals. In several cases and for whatever reason people will reject this method and the program. This rejection does not make the program a “bad” program or the person a “bad” person. The reason for the rejection could be as simple as the method not being a good fit for your loved one because the “traditional” outside-in treatment approach cannot help provide what many, consciously or subconsciously, are looking for, which is inner-peace, serenity, happiness, etc. After all, one shoe does not fit all. The problem most people who have been to multiple centers experience is that the program is the same no matter where they go or what name is on the building. So, in reality, your loved one probably has attended only one program, just multiple times. The only differences were the locations and settings.
Actually understanding that you or your loved one’s unsuccessful attempt/s at substance abuse rehabilitation is most likely an outgrowth of ineffective treatment or that the “traditional” treatment option was a “poor fit” would help enable your family members to view the problem from a different perspective. This point of view will help you and your family discover a realized truth concerning treatment. This insight will turn anger and resentment into compassion. This compassion may then manifest itself into a desire to try again to find a way to help your loved one. This new-found desire could then motivate your family members to find a program that is different, that can attend to the true needs of your loved one, and that makes sense to them.
The answer to drug and alcohol addiction lies in simplicity and experiencing true inner peace and serenity. Our program is based on the fact that people do have the innate power, wisdom, drive, and ability to experience peace and serenity in their lives and to subsequently break free from addictive behavior. The problem is that those with addiction problems have lost their way.
Take that first step toward helping your family discover the truth concerning your loved one’s drug addiction problem. We can help. Our trained and caring counselors can assist you in creating a strategy designed for you and your family’s unique situation. Give us a call today at (855) 400-6190. All calls are confidential.

How accurately do you portray your facility on your website? Since the inception of Gulf Breeze Recovery we have been committed to offering transparency to those interested in evaluating our facility for themselves or their loved ones. People wishing to find the right place want to know that what they see is what they are going to get. Gulf Breeze Recovery continues that transparency with genuine testimonials from real clients in their own words, our live webcam, and a virtual tour of the facility provided by a neutral third party, which is also found on this website.

What can I expect from your program and services? In a word…RESULTS. Our program and services are designed to be results driven, which is entrenched in our entire system of treatment and methods of operation. Management expects results from staff; the staff expects results from management, we expect to see results from our guests and our guests should expect results from us and our program. Anything less creates complacency and promotes failure, no excuses.
You should also expect a certain high-quality level of care for you or your loved one. You should expect our facility to be neat, clean and comfortable, the food to be prepared fresh daily allowing for special requests and the facility to be located in a setting conducive to recovery. You should expect a serene, peaceful environment for contemplation and recovery. You should expect the staff to be highly trained and disciplined to provide an atmosphere where you or your loved one will feel cared for. You should also expect a program that inspires and empowers you or your loved one promoting personal responsibility and personal accountability along with encouraging increased self-worth, inner peace, and serenity. You should expect true hands on true one-on-one care and attention. You should also expect you or your loved one’s counselors to be accomplished and the best in the business.
These expectations are high; however, to be successful and offer the best chance of helping everyone, the contrary must be unacceptable. High expectations create the proper mindset and atmosphere that provides recovery opportunity for everyone. You or your loved one will benefit from our results-driven philosophy. The benefit will be in the realization of long-term happiness along with the subsequent freedom from addiction.

What if my loved one does not want to stay? Our research shows that recovery can be successful if the treatment facility and program is conducive to making people feel comfortable and welcome and that every effort is made by the program’s staff to empower individuals to actively participate in the real work it takes to overcome their drug and alcohol addiction. Our facility and approach are unique. We have the appearance and comfort of a retreat with the discipline of a life-changing program.
Our goal is to reduce resistance to recovery and to maximize the chances of helping everyone. We refer our program participants as guests for a particular reason. If your loved one is treated as a guest and is being well cared for, then chances are that they will become willing participants. The key is to make you or your loved one feel welcome and for them to understand that they matter while gently being lead down the road to recovery. To achieve this goal, it is imperative that Gulf Breeze Recovery treat each person as a unique individual and as a guest.
Our commitment and setting help create the “buy-in” and desire necessary for your loved one to stay, successfully complete the program and to recover. Referring to and treating people as a guest creates responsibility. We are responsible and committed to producing and maintaining a clean, structured environment including a well-trained and disciplined staff; good meals prepared fresh daily, an empowering program that makes sense and a location that provides a setting in which a feeling of being well cared for is conducive to our guests.

What addictions does Gulf Breeze Recovery treat? We treat all types of drug and alcohol addictions no matter how severe.

My loved one is a master manipulator and has manipulated many addiction counselors. What makes your facility and counselors different than all the others regarding manipulation? Our program is designed specifically to handle clients’ manipulations. When people are focused on manipulation, there is always a “disconnect” between their words and their actions. Our daily staff meetings are designed to uncover any irregularities or problems with our guests such as those stemming from manipulations.
Instead of using “dry facts” that can be used to repeat back to our counselors, our program is designed to promote the creation of insights or realized truths which are internally created and produce a certain feeling and a higher level of awareness. Although many try, it is hard to express to anyone, especially trained counselors, the understanding of a higher standard of awareness and a feeling that your loved one has not experienced. It simply cannot be done.
Our counselors understand the nature of manipulation and take it for what it is: an upper-level form of resistance. Instead of giving up on your loved one or accusing him or her of denial (see “Denial Myth”), our counselors search for reasons why a person is resistant to treatment and the methods to overcome the resistance. Resistance is born out of fear, realized or not, and we help guests overcome their fear and subsequent resistance, which will create a rapid transformation process.
Our one-on-one counseling services are designed, and the counselors are trained to uncover manipulations and to work with your loved one to create honest insights about his or her insecurities. The single most important service we can provide for our guests and their families is to uncover methods that make sense and assists people in creating insights that will lead them to discover the root of the manipulation problem.

Do you have any locations closer to where I live? Everything we do at Gulf Breeze Recovery is to maximize you or your loved one’s chances of success. Recovery from substance abuse is always worth a plane or a car ride to the facility. Our program is state-of-the-art, innovative and it works. We work and strive for positive outcomes. We understand that if a positive outcome becomes the “norm” and is expected by all parties, then a positive outcome is what we should get. No excuses.
Substance abuse is chronic and deadly. It is important to find a drug treatment program that is best suited for you or your loved one’s needs, not one that is geographically close. Recovery should never take a “back seat” to other concerns. At the end of the day, the only thing that matters is you or your loved one being liberated from the desire to abuse substances. Take the first step and call 1-1-855-485-3273. Our trained and caring counselors will provide any information needed and will help “walk” you through the process that leads down the road to recovery.
