Helping Hands Recovery Center Oakland Park

This Oakland Park program serves women dealing with substance use and the trauma that frequently accompanies it. Rather than one fixed track, care combines evidence-based methods with holistic choices, and the team treats co-occurring disorders alongside drinking or drug use. The Helping Hands Recovery Center Oakland Park team blends evidence-based and holistic care for women facing both. Case management is included, and a supportive alumni program carries on once treatment ends.

Sessions take place on an outpatient basis, including an intensive outpatient level, so women attend treatment while staying connected to daily life. The center describes its treatment as trauma-informed, with clinicians trained to help women work through emotional, physical, and sexual trauma toward resilience and greater control over their own choices. The facility holds Joint Commission accreditation alongside LegitScript certification.

Outpatient and co-occurring care

Helping Hands Recovery Center Oakland Park provides outpatient and intensive outpatient care, meaning scheduled therapy sessions rather than overnight residence. Therapy options at this Oakland Park center include cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing for substance use, along with solution-focused, goal-oriented work and one-on-one counseling. Psychoeducation and life skills development round out the structured parts of the week.

Therapy also draws on art and equine sessions, meditation, and other holistic approaches, and programming is gender-specific. When alcohol use appears alongside anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, PTSD, or a personality disorder, both are treated together rather than as separate tracks. Women with co-occurring mental health needs get treatment that addresses both conditions at once. Medication-assisted treatment is listed among the available therapies.
