Private, Medically Supported Detox and Residential Care

Keystone Retreat Behavioral Health delivers a seamless continuum of care from medical detox through residential treatment, all on one private campus. Licensed clinicians and nursing staff provide 24/7 monitoring to ensure safety and comfort during withdrawal and early recovery. As part of Sunshine Behavioral Health, the program combines evidence-based treatment with individualized attention, helping clients regain stability and develop practical skills that support lifelong recovery in a setting designed for rest and renewal.

Luxury Amenities and Connected Healing Environment

Located on 14 peaceful acres, the center combines nature, comfort, and connection. Clients enjoy private or shared rooms, chef-prepared meals, and access to wellness amenities including a gym, heated indoor pool, gardens, and walking paths. Indoor lounges, business areas, and relaxation spaces promote balance and community. The facility’s technology-friendly policy allows for responsible use of phones and laptops outside of therapy hours, enabling clients to stay connected to family and work without disrupting the recovery process.

Integrated Mental Health and Holistic Treatment Approach

Keystone Retreat specializes in treating both addiction and co-occurring mental health disorders such as anxiety, depression, and PTSD. Care plans may include medications for addiction treatment (MAT), individual and group therapy, and participation in both 12-step and SMART Recovery programs. Complementary therapies like yoga, art, and mindfulness build self-awareness and emotional resilience. This integrated model treats the whole person, addressing physical, mental, and emotional well-being, to help clients achieve balance and maintain progress after treatment.

Personalized Aftercare and Long-Term Recovery Support

From the first day of admission, Keystone emphasizes continuity of care. Each client works with a discharge planner to create a customized aftercare plan that may include outpatient programs, community support groups, or alumni engagement within the Sunshine Behavioral Health network. Transparent insurance verification and flexible admissions make starting treatment straightforward. This coordinated approach ensures clients leave with a clear path forward, sustained support, and the confidence to continue recovery beyond their residential stay.
