About Phoenix House Florida – Ocala Residential Center – Citra, Florida

Phoenix House Florida is a substance use disorder and mental health treatment center located in Citra, Florida. They provide a wide continuum of care comprised of holistic treatments that treat the whole person, including those with co-occurring disorders.

Phoenix House offers gender specific residential treatment, partial hospitalization, medication assisted treatment, and family therapy. They also provide options for short and long-term stays and continuing care.

Residential Treatment at the Phoenix House includes an initial assessment to determine the best plan of treatment for each individual. Services provided are individual treatment planning, specialized group therapy, life skills training, health education, family re-integration assistance, and services to help ensure a sustained recovery. The residential treatment programming at Phoenix House is gender specific. For women, the program encourages mother and child unification whenever possible.

Partial hospitalization is one step down from residential inpatient treatment, allowing for the return home to sleep each evening. This program utilizes evidence based practices to help individuals develop trust, self esteem, and personal responsibility. Life skills training, health education, family re-integration assistance, and continuing care services are a part of this program.

At Aspire Health Partners, the Medication Assisted Treatment Program provides medications along with comprehensive medical, psychiatric, and behavioral counseling. FDA approved medications are used to support withdrawal from opioid drugs and to help maintain long term abstinence. By combining medication with mental health treatment, a greater chance of success is achieved for long term abstinence.

Dual diagnosis, often referred to as having co-occurring disorders, is when two or more mental health concerns present themselves simultaneously. It is very common for those who struggle with addiction to also have an underlying mental health concern such as anxiety, depression, or a diagnosable psychiatric disorder. Without proper treatment of the mental health issue at hand, getting and staying sober can be difficult. By treating both the substance use disorder and the mental health needs concurrently, a greater chance for long term sobriety is achieved.
