About Hawaii Island Recovery
Treating only 8 clients at a time, their personalized recovery programs offer medical, mental health, and therapeutic services. Highly trained medical professionals oversee the detox process, supported by nursing staff available 24/7. After completing detox, clients transition into residential programming to begin individual and group talk therapy. Hawaii Island Recovery’s therapists utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). They provide compassionate trauma-informed care with techniques such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Neurofeedback. To create a cohesive recovery community, Hawaii Island Recovery encourages community-based support through 12-Step meetings and Dharma recovery meetings.
Hawaii Island Recovery uses experiential therapies as a therapeutic group modality to inspire emotions and insights contributing to long-term recovery. Their offerings include educational experiences in Hawaiian culture and nature-based therapies. Clients embark on hikes through cloud forests that reveal stunning ocean views, lava fields, and tucked away waterfalls. On the ocean, clients engage in dolphin-assisted therapy and whale watching. Trips and excursions respect and celebrate local communities.
Located on the westernmost point of the Big Island, Hawaii Island Recovery offers spectacular ocean views and a comfortable healing destination. Spacious bedrooms, chef-prepared meals with locally-sourced food, and a beautiful yard with lush plants and fruit trees make Hawaii Island Recovery an ideal recovery home. They take advantage of the stunning island with visits to black sand beaches, mountain hikes, waterfall treks, and water activities.

The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) emphasizes that treatment programs combining behavioral therapy with medication-assisted approaches show the highest rates of sustained recovery. Facilities like Hawaii Island Recovery provide structured pathways to evidence-based care. Sources: SAMHSA NSDUH 2023, NIDA Principles of Drug Addiction Treatment (4th Ed.)

Understanding Your Treatment Options
Choosing the right treatment facility is one of the most important decisions in the recovery journey. Research published by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) shows that treatment duration, therapeutic approach, and aftercare planning are the three strongest predictors of long-term sobriety.
Hawaii Island Recovery offers 3 distinct levels of care, allowing patients to step through treatment intensities as they progress. This continuum-of-care model — moving from higher to lower intensity — is recommended by SAMHSA as the gold standard for addiction treatment.
The facility utilizes 9 evidence-based therapeutic modalities. According to NIDA research, combination therapy approaches that integrate behavioral interventions (such as 1-on-1 Counseling and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) with holistic support show significantly improved outcomes compared to single-modality programs.
Under the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act, most commercial insurance plans are required to cover substance abuse treatment. Hawaii Island Recovery works with 24 insurance providers.
