The Benefits of Florida Inpatient Trauma Treatment
Inpatient trauma treatment can be a critical step in the recovery process for individuals suffering from severe trauma or PTSD. Beachway’s unique approach to trauma therapy combines best practices in traditional therapy and holistic care.
Beachway’s inpatient program offers a safe, supportive environment for addressing trauma. Patients receive treatment amidst the beautiful surroundings at our inpatient treatment center in sunny South Florida.
Understanding Inpatient Trauma Treatment at Beachway
Inpatient trauma treatment at Beachway includes participation in a 6-week trauma treatment track that offers structured care 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Inpatient treatment is more intensive than outpatient care and offers individuals the chance to step away from environments and obligations that might make it difficult to concentrate on personal wellness.
The Beachway staff works closely with each person, starting with the admissions process. We take time to understand each patient’s needs and goals, so we can create an individualized treatment plan.
It’s important for individuals dealing with trauma or PTSD to work within a trauma-specific group and participate in the right therapies for trauma care. Beachway offers a range of evidence-based therapies to treat severe trauma effectively, and our comprehensive approach, which combines traditional methods with holistic therapies, supports overall healing and wellness.
Key Therapies in Beachway's Inpatient Trauma Program
Trauma-specific care at Beachway is tailored to each person’s experiences and needs. Evidence-based inpatient trauma treatment may include some combination of the following:
- Dialectical behavioral therapy: This type of talk therapy focuses on managing emotions and reducing self-destructive thoughts or behaviors. DBT helps patients build healthy coping skills and work up to tolerating stressors and regulating emotions in more functional ways.
- Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing: EDMR uses guided eye movements and bilateral stimulation alongside talk therapy to help someone face, process, and respond to memories that might be distressing or cause trauma.
- Cognitive behavioral therapy: This talk therapy helps patients identify and change negative thought patterns and related behavioral responses by developing new thought habits.
- Solution-focused brief therapy: SFBT is also referred to as solution-focused therapy. It works to identify and implement solutions by focusing on the resources and strengths available to someone rather than the problems or challenges themselves.
Beachway’s holistic therapies include art therapy, breathwork, and meditation. The goal is to provide personalized therapeutic approaches and access to trauma-specific groups to ensure a tailored treatment plan that meets each patient’s needs.
A Typical Day in Beachway’s Inpatient Trauma Program
Each day at Beachway’s inpatient treatment in Florida includes around 6 hours of group and individual therapy focused on trauma. A care team, including therapists, psychiatrists, and others, works to deliver high-quality personalized care that may include intensive one-on-one and group therapy sessions, alongside holistic therapy practices, such as art.
We work hard to provide a peaceful environment for healing, which includes the living accommodations at Beachway. Our luxury trauma treatment center is a warm, comfortable environment with beach and pool access, beautiful gardens, and a recreational fitness studio. Between therapy sessions and in the evenings, individuals can enjoy other amenities, such as our on-site café.
Advantages of Inpatient Care at Beachway
Beginning the journey to wellness at an inpatient trauma treatment center can have numerous benefits. Some benefits of inpatient care at Beachway include:
- Around-the-clock support: Leaning into mental health healing can be challenging and even scary, especially at first. Having trustworthy, experienced support available 24/7 during this new chapter can provide peace of mind and help individuals build a foundation of wellness that lasts.
- A structured environment: An inpatient center offers a structured and protected environment that temporarily removes individuals from regular life, where trauma triggers may make it difficult or even impossible to achieve the transformative experience required to kick-start healing.
- Comprehensive care: The staff at Beachway can combine medical, therapeutic, and holistic support to aid patients’ recovery from trauma.
Beachway's Unique Approach to Trauma Treatment
Beachway’s unique approach to inpatient trauma therapy includes a 6-week trauma-focused treatment track that’s broken into three phases:
- Phase 1: We focus on ensuring individuals feel safe and providing a stable place for treatment. We discuss resources and strengths, develop a treatment plan, and begin teaching specific grounding and emotional regulation tools.
- Phase 2: During this period of treatment, we focus on trauma reprocessing and work through techniques, such as CBT or EMDR, with an individualized approach to trauma.
- Phase 3: As people approach the end of their inpatient treatment, we begin integrating and reconnecting with real life as they prepare to reengage with that life while utilizing their new coping strategies.
While this may seem like a formulaic approach, we design this treatment with the flexibility required to address various trauma types, including PTSD, childhood trauma, or complex trauma.
Continuity of Care for Patients Transitioning From Inpatient to Outpatient Treatment
At our trauma treatment in Florida, we try to ensure individuals feel supported throughout their journey to wellness. Our team ensures continuity of care for patients moving from inpatient to outpatient treatment by:
- Planning with patients: Individuals approach the end of inpatient treatment with a plan they feel comfortable with and the knowledge, skills, and clinical support to implement it.
- Recommending and helping set up aftercare services: Aftercare services are critical to supporting patients as they continue to build on skills they learned in treatment. Our team can recommend the next steps after inpatient or outpatient programs, including individual and group therapy or other resources.
- Involving family members when appropriate: The Beachway team can involve family members in therapy when appropriate or requested. We can also provide family recovery programs to ensure a supportive network of loved ones.
