The Refuge, A Healing Place is a multi-level, 12-Step oriented treatment program that includes Residential, PHP and Intensive Outpatient. The Refuge utilizes experiential and holistic approaches when treating substance abuse, process addictions and post traumatic stress disorder / trauma survivors.

At The Refuge we have connected the dots and are completely aware of the correlation between substance abuse issues, trauma/PTSD and process addictions. This allows our highly trained clinical staff to do intensive treatment therapy and truly heal trauma/PTSD survivors.

At The Refuge we believe that there are those who cannot achieve true sobriety until their trauma/PTSD is resolved. The Refuge's specialty rehab components focus on issues such as PTSD/Trauma, Substance Abuse, Eating Disorder, Depression/Anxiety, Sex and Love Addiction, and many other process addictions.

The Refuge is located on 94 acres of the Ocala National Forest. This allows our clients that are suffering from PTSD/Trauma, Substance Abuse issues and many of the other process addiction to heal and recover in a Serine, Secluded and Tranquil environment.

Our Mission

 

Philosophy
The Refuge believes that chemical dependency, trauma/PTSD, mood disorders and process addictions are treatable illnesses and that recovery and remission can occur with proper services. The focus of the program is on physical, spiritual, and emotional healing through the integration of client centered care using traditional and experiential modalities. Use of education, counseling, behavior management and peer support are ways to introduce and reinforce abstinence and move the patient into a productive lifestyle with ongoing involvement in recovery. This is accomplished through the collaborative efforts of a highly competent and motivated multidisciplinary staff.

What is The Refuge?
The Refuge, A Healing Place is a 30 day to 1 year extended treatment program that specializes in PTSD, Trauma, Substance Abuse, and Process Addictions located in central Florida. The Refuge's Executive Director and Founder, Judith T. Crane LMHC, ICADC, CAP, CSAT, noticed the correlation between trauma/PTSD and substance abuse over two decades ago when working at Wayside House in Delray Beach, FL. In 2003, Judy opened The Refuge, A Healing Place in Ocklawaha, Florida. When The Refuge opened it was one of the few programs that specialized in PTSD/Trauma, process addictions and substance abuse. The Refuge allowed clients that were not only suffering from substance abuse and trauma/PTSD to admit, but also the clients that were struggling with staying sober because of underlying issues. Over the past eight years Judy Crane and her highly trained Refuge staff have perfected the holistic approaches they use to treat Trauma/PTSD Survivors.
