Living Life in Recovery Instead of Living Life in a Recovery Center

Other treatment centers may excel at teaching you how to live life in rehab. At 12 Palms, we teach you how to live life in recovery, in outside-world settings. Our counselors and specialists believe that learning how to enjoy sober living means learning how to reengage with people, places and activities outside our beautiful grounds.

As a result, at 12 Palms each and every one of our clients enjoys full access to cell phones, laptop computers, business associates and family member. We give our clients the tools and resources that help address the joys — and stressors — that "real" life presents every day.

A Non-Clinical Recovery Setting in a Sub-Tropical Climate

We believe our temperate climate, located in Florida's sub-tropics, helps improve a client's state of mind. Our 10-acre waterfront grounds feature a plantation-style home as well as private and semi private cottages, incredible landscaping and a large swimming pool. It is as far away from a clinical setting as one can imagine because we believe this atmosphere best serves the recovery needs of our clients.
