Hawaii Island Recovery as the “Last Stop” For Those Seeking Sobriety

Our substance abuse treatment center in Hawaii  has been viewed as the “last stop” for many of those who have struggled tirelessly to not only get sober but stay sober. Maybe they have tried to get sober on their own but found it difficult to maintain sobriety long-term. Or perhaps they found themselves stuck in a relentless cycle of trying different rehab programs but just not finding one that worked best for them.

At Hawaii Island Recovery, our unique program is what has allowed so many of our patients to achieve long-lasting sobriety upon completing treatment. We know our patients already want to stay sober. Our goal is to provide them with the tools, resources, and support necessary to accomplish this.

By ensuring our treatment program is tailored to fit your specific individual needs, we can work with you to pave a much happier and healthier path forward. Call us today to start your recovery journey!

How Hawaii Island Recovery is Different From Other Addiction Treatment Facilities

At Hawaii Island Recovery, several key things set us apart from other  Hawaii addiction treatment facilities.

We are proud to provide a variety of evidence-based therapies that encourage total healing for your body, mind, and spirit. . We also aim to help out patients with co-occurring disorders by providing dual-diagnosis treatment and trauma-informed care.

Reach out to us today to learn more about what makes our programs so unique!

Evidence-Based Therapy
All therapies provided at our drug and alcohol rehab in Hawaii have been rigorously studied and proven to help individuals heal and maintain lifelong recovery. We offer traditional modalities, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, along with supplemental treatments including yoga, nature-based experiential therapy, and meditation.
Dual-Diagnosis Treatment
At our beautiful alcohol and drug treatment center in Hawaii,  we offer dual-diagnosis treatment for those who are struggling with co-occurring disorders, such as depression, anxiety, and PTSD.  Simultaneously treating addiction and mental health conditions provides long-term wellness and freedom from relapse. 
Trauma-informed Care
We recognize that addiction often stems from unaddressed trauma, so each of our treatment programs at Hawaii Island Recovery incorporates trauma-informed care.
Holistic Treatment Approach
At our addiction recovery center, we believe in treating the whole person, mind, body, and spirit. We utilize a holistic treatment approach that helps you rediscover your purpose, build resilience, and create a fulfilling life.

We believe that each person’s experience with substance use is unique. Because of this, we offer individualized treatment plans based on your specific needs, background, and goals. Our personalized approach ensures you receive the right level of care, at the right time—maximizing your chances of lasting recovery.

With 24/7 medical support and a team of addiction specialists, we provide a structured and compassionate environment that blends evidence-based therapies with holistic healing.

Transformative and Restorative  Addiction Treatment in Hawaii

At Hawaii Island Recovery, we recognize that struggling with addiction can be a very isolating and discouraging experience. You may feel hopeless, scared, and apprehensive about seeking professional treatment.

Many people avoid seeking out treatment at a  rehab facility because they don’t know what to expect. They may also be skeptical that  successful long-term recovery is really an option for them.

If this is something that you or someone you love is currently going through, rest assured that there is hope. Our team at Hawaii Island Recovery is here to help. Through our addiction treatment program, we have helped over 1,600 people take back their lives from substance use disorder and begin to heal. We want to help you, too.

Our stunning Hawaii rehab facility  offers a peaceful place where you can heal mentally, physically, and emotionally. Spending time out in nature exploring the island, practicing mind-body wellness through yoga, and enjoying delicious chef-prepared meals are just some of the things you can expect from our treatment programs.

Personalized Mental Health Treatment

Mental health and substance use go hand in hand. In many cases, people turn to substance use as a result of trying to cope with unresolved trauma or untreated mental health disorders. These mental health disorders may include things like:

  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Bipolar disorder
  • Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
  • Eating disorders
  • Personality disorders

We provide  effective treatment for these disorders to  give individuals the best chance at long-term sobriety upon leaving our alcohol and drug treatment center in Hawaii.

Identify the Root Cause of Substance Use Disorder

Addressing both addiction and co-occurring mental health disorders is crucial for healing  the root causes of substance use disorders. At Hawaii Island Recovery, we want to do everything possible to help you  not just get sober, but stay sober. One of the ways we do this is by helping you  ensure your mental health is as strong as it can be. This involves learning  how to manage stress and other negative emotions effectively to build resilience.

Outpatient Treatment, Aftercare, and Preparing for Life in Recovery

The team at our center for alcohol and drug rehabilitation in Hawaii   understands that the recovery journey doesn’t end  with residential treatment. Rather, it is a lifelong journey that takes place one day—and even one moment—at a time.

We offer continued support through outpatient treatment, including our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP),  Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), and aftercare program.  These options help guide patients through the critical period that takes place as they transition back to everyday life.

Through outpatient treatment, you can  experience more flexibility than in residential treatment, but continue to receive  all the guidance and support you  may need. Our programs include:

  • Individual counseling
  • Group therapy
  • Education sessions
  • Medication management

All of these benefits help to ensure that you  feel fully confident and comfortable as you  begin the early stages of your  recovery journey.

Aftercare Planning

Aftercare planning is another important part of this process. This helps to ensure that you  have access to all of the resources necessary to navigate life in recovery. Services may include:

  • Consultations with an addictionologist
  • Continued psychotherapy and experiential therapy
  • Continued addiction coaching

Aftercare Participation in Sober Community Activities

At Hawaii Island Recovery, you’ll have the chance to  build lasting relationships with peers and expand your  recovery community. We encourage active participation  in sober activities, which helps sustain lasting recovery. Activities might include:

  • 12-Step programs
  • Community events and activities such as AA and NA
  • Volunteer work

I’m a graduate of the HIR program class of 2014

I’ve been clean and sober ever since. The property, staff, clinical team, and recovery community in Kona are all world-class. If you or anyone you know is struggling with alcoholism or substance abuse issues, HIR is a safe choice for you or your loved ones. I’m eternally grateful for my experience at HIR.
