Program Overview

Our residential treatment program provides hope for clients suffering from mental health and substance use disorders, helping them ensure sustained recovery. Located in beautiful Deerfield Beach, Lifeskills provides a secure and nurturing atmosphere for balanced recovery and healing.

Residential treatment program clients live in fully furnished townhomes that are professionally staffed 24-hours a day. This realistic, home-like setting allows residents to adapt their new coping skills within the local community and practice their daily routines while taking part in the therapeutic process. In our residential treatment program, we help our clients successfully transition back into their homes, family lives, and careers with newfound self-esteem, direction, and control.

Treatment Overview

We believe that each person can change with the proper support. Our programming is built on a foundation of evidence-based best practices, integrated care, life skills training, and family support, with  clinical pathways led by doctoral-level or licensed clinicians who create tailored and flexible treatment plans that empower each person to sustain long-term recovery.

In addition, clients participate in life skills groups designed to help facilitate a seamless shift towards independent living. These groups encompass activities such as resume building, interviewing, cooking, menu planning, budgeting, and more.

A Full Continuum of Care

At Lifeskills, we offer several levels of anxiety treatment based on where clients are in their recovery. Our levels of care for treating anxiety include detoxification services, residential treatment, partial hospitalization, and intensive outpatient programs, as well as transitional living. Clients move through their anxiety treatment program as they progress toward anxiety disorder recovery. Our treatment programs for treating anxiety include:
  • Residential Program (RTC): Providing structure and safety with round-the-clock supervision and care, residential treatment includes a high staff-to-client ratio, 24-hour staffing, and a wide variety of individualized evidence-based therapies, education, and support. 
     
  • Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP): Designed as a solid bridge for those stepping down from residential care or as a program to prevent hospitalizations, PHP offers clients increased independence to practice learned skills in real-life situations while maintaining structured therapy.  
  • Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP): Our IOP was designed to help individuals who are experiencing an increase in distressing symptoms and behaviors or are not progressing with traditional outpatient services. The additional support and treatment foster meaningful improvement and create a solid foundation.

“I have one motive for writing this review of Lifeskills South Florida which, is to tell the truth. Lifeskills composed an individualized treatment program that, combined with the meticulous guidance of my treatment team and concierge-like staff, generated the kind of results that exceeded what I had hoped for prior to admission. I was treated with respect and kindness by the staff the whole way through. I would highly recommend Lifeskills to anyone, even to my own family if the situation permitted.” – Grateful Lifeskills Alumnus

“Wow, I can’t even imagine where to begin in my praises of this facility! For starters, I have never encountered a more sensitive and empathetic treatment team that so accurately customizes their treatment to each individual. From Dr. Ockman and my therapist, Sandy on the clinical side, to all the kind and generous technicians on the residential side, Gus, and John, in particular. Lifeskills is by far the quintessential treatment center for anyone struggling with substance abuse or dual diagnosis issues. Highly recommended!” – Grateful Lifeskills Alumnus

“Lifeskills helped me in so many ways. They really changed my life mentality and helped me with my bipolar disorder as well as my addiction. They gave me coping skills for addiction and anger management, which has been great for communication. My relationships with my family have also improved tremendously. The staff has been amazing, both residential (especially Gus) and clinical staff – they are kind, help you with all your needs, and direct you in the most positive way. I would suggest Lifeskills to anyone in need of help in mental health and addiction.” – Grateful Lifeskills Alumnus
