Hawaii Island Recovery provides residential addiction care for adults on the beautiful island of Kona. They offer evidence-based treatment, medically supervised
detox, holistic and experiential therapies, and
outpatient continuing care. Hawaii Island Recovery also treats co-occurring mental health conditions like anxiety, eating disorders, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), as well as behavioral addictions like sex and gambling. Their programs are founded on 3 elements designed to treat the whole person: clinical care, holistic health, and recreational activities.
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.

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.
