Banyan Delaware

Supportive Residential Environment

The center’s structured, calming environment is designed to support recovery. Clients stay in shared rooms equipped with individual beds, flat-screen televisions, and private bathrooms. Daily life includes scheduled therapy groups, meals, and downtime, creating a predictable rhythm that reinforces stability. The facility features communal spaces for connection and support, while off-site activities—such as beach walks and movie outings—allow clients to spend time unwinding with their peers. These experiences foster connection, routine, and a sense of normalcy during treatment.

Specialized Treatment for Underserved Populations

Targeted programs are available for clients with complex or underserved needs. Veterans receive care from staff familiar with military-related trauma, including support for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and reintegration challenges. Pregnant individuals—up to seven months—are provided with prenatal medical oversight alongside substance use treatment. Postpartum clients also receive specialized care. For those seeking spiritual support, the Faith in Recovery program integrates Christian principles, optional church services, and biblical counseling. Each track includes tailored therapeutic groups and case management.

Evidence-Based and Holistic Therapies

A wide range of therapies is incorporated to support healing on multiple levels. Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) uses guided visualization and eye movements to help clients reprocess trauma without verbal retelling, which can be especially helpful for individuals with PTSD. Pet therapy offers emotional comfort and nonjudgmental companionship, reducing anxiety and building trust during treatment. Self-Management and Recovery Training (SMART) Recovery provides an alternative to 12-step models, teaching practical tools for managing urges, emotions, and behaviors through a self-empowering, science-based approach. Together, these therapies offer clients diverse pathways to address both the emotional and behavioral dimensions of substance use.

Full Continuum of Trauma-Informed and Dual-Diagnosis Care

A full continuum of care, including medical detox, residential treatment, partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP), and outpatient programs, is offered in one location. This structure allows individuals to step down through levels of care without leaving the support network. All services are delivered through a trauma-informed lens, recognizing the impact of past experiences on current behavior and recovery. The facility specializes in dual diagnosis treatment, providing integrated care for co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders. By addressing both conditions simultaneously, clients receive more effective, coordinated support — helping them stabilize, build coping skills, and prepare for sustained recovery.
