About Footprints Beachside Recovery

Footprints Beachside Recovery Center is a family-run addiction and dual diagnosis treatment center. The services they offer include gender-specific programs, day/night treatment, an intensive outpatient program (IOP), and a virtual Telehealth IOP. They additionally offer a professionals only program for those who require internet access to continue their work duties, a healthcare professionals program for workers who may have experienced trauma and addiction due to their high stress job, and a sober living program for those who wish to maintain a similar schedule structure post-treatment. Gender-specific group therapy has been shown to be an effective tool due to the fact that women and men have some inherent differences from one another. Footprint’s licensed, expressive arts therapist leads their women’s empowerment groups and explores topics such as healing, hope, and empowerment.
Footprints Beachside Recovery Center has two separate residences for their mens and women’s programs to effectively run their gender-specific treatments. Their women’s facility has a beachy style interior, shared bedrooms, and outdoor patio and lounge space. Their men’s facility provides a classic bungalow feel with outdoor space and a hammock. Some of the recreational activities their clients get to participate in include fitness, yoga, outdoor therapy, biosound theory, art therapy, and massage therapy. Footprints is partnered with 25+ different insurance providers and allows potential clients to verify their insurance online. They are accredited by the Joint Commission.

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 Footprints Beachside Recovery provide structured pathways to evidence-based care. Sources: SAMHSA NSDUH 2023, NIDA Principles of Drug Addiction Treatment (4th Ed.)

Understanding Your Treatment Options

Footprints Beachside 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 Group Therapy) with holistic support show significantly improved outcomes compared to single-modality programs.
