About Headwaters

At Headwaters, busy professionals facing substance use or co-occurring mental health challenges can finally breathe easy. Beyond addiction, they can treat sleep disturbances, grief and loss, and love & sex addiction. From physician-led medical detox and residential rehab, each level of care is delivered with rigor and compassion.
Headwaters understands the pressures faced by high‐stakes professionals, so every element of care is designed around discretion and efficiency. From day one, clients meet with the multidisciplinary team for a thorough assessment that maps their personal and professional stressors, then crafts a targeted treatment plan—whether it’s focused one‐on‐one counseling sessions scheduled around meetings or medication-assisted support to manage withdrawal safely. Throughout the week, professionals can recharge with mind-body breaks—like sunrise yoga on the private terrace, guided meditation between conference calls, or sound-healing sessions that reset focus.
After detox, clients regain full access to their cell phones and laptops with secure, high-speed WiFi—so vital emails and urgent calls stay within reach without disrupting healing. Between clinical sessions, guests can unwind with acupuncture, massage, and experiential therapies or enjoy five-star cuisine prepared by an on-site chef in private dining areas—and frequent beach excursions add a touch of sunshine and salt air.
Headwaters makes sure that support doesn’t end at discharge. They begin building an aftercare program for each client from day one. Based on comprehensive assessments, each client leaves with a personalized roadmap for recovery, complete with therapy check-ins, peer support, and guidance for families

Evidence-Based Context: According to SAMHSA's National Survey on Drug Use and Health (2023), approximately 48.7 million Americans aged 12 or older had a substance use disorder in the past year. 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 Headwaters provide structured pathways to evidence-based care. Sources: SAMHSA NSDUH 2023, NIDA Principles of Drug Addiction Treatment (4th Ed.)
