When mental health disorders or substance use issues run deep, short stays or outpatient programs may not provide enough time for full healing. That’s where long-term residential facilities come in. At DeLand Treatment Solutions, we offer compassionate, evidence-based long-term residential care designed to help individuals achieve sustained change in mind, body, and spirit.


Long-Term Residential Treatment Facilities

What Does Long-Term Residential Care Mean?


Long-term residential treatment means residing at a dedicated facility for an extended period,often several months. Unlike shorter programs, this model allows clients to fully disengage from destabilizing stressors, triggers, or unhealthy environments. The goal is not just stabilization but deep healing: tackling root causes, developing strong coping skills, and laying the groundwork for a healthier, more resilient life.


At DeLand Treatment Solutions, our facility offers dual-diagnosis long-term care for those with co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders. Our facility is a 12-bed residential program located on two peaceful acres, with amenities designed to support wellbeing, privacy, and comfort. 


Why Long-Term Residential Treatment is Crucial for Some


Here are some of the key reasons long-term residential treatment may be the best choice:

  1. Deeper Resolution of Underlying Issues Many clients come to realize that addiction, trauma, anxiety, depression, or other issues are intertwined. Long-term programs offer time and therapeutic space to explore these layers under professional care.

  2. 24/7 Clinical Support and Stability Constant access to medical, psychiatric, and counseling staff helps manage psychiatric symptoms and withdrawal safely, ensures medication adherence, and supports progress even on tough days. DeLand ensures low staff-to-patient ratios for consistent, individualized supervision.

  3. Structured Environment Free from Triggering Influences Removing exposure to external stressors or environments that enable relapse, family dynamics, work pressures, or social settings, can help people reset. Long-term care provides routine, predictability, and protected space for growth.

  4. Comprehensive Holistic Therapies Healing isn’t only about therapy and meds: physical health (nutrition, exercise), mindfulness, art/music therapy, fitness, meditation,all become part of the wellness plan. DeLand Treatment Solutions offers holistic on-site supports, including yoga, meditation, creative therapies, and nutritious meals.

  5. Skill-Building and Relapse Prevention Long-term treatment gives time to learn and practice life skills, coping strategies, emotional regulation (via DBT, CBT), trauma resolution, and relapse prevention techniques,so that when clients return to daily life, they are better equipped. 


  1. Supportive Community & Peer Bonding Living among others who are facing similar challenges helps lessen isolation, builds empathy, and provides ongoing encouragement. This sense of community contributes to better outcomes.


What DeLand’s Long-Term Residential Facilities Provide


Here’s a breakdown of what you can expect when choosing DeLand for long-term care:

  • Dual-Diagnosis Treatment – Integrated care that treats both mental health and substance use simultaneously. This ensures that neither gets ignored.

Who Benefits Most from Long-Term Residential Care?


You might be a good candidate for long-term residential care if:

  • You’ve struggled with relapse or mental health symptoms that outpatient care hasn’t fully addressed.

  • You have co-occurring disorders (e.g., depression, PTSD, anxiety, alongside substance use).

  • You lack a stable or supportive living environment or face ongoing environmental triggers.

  • You need more time to develop coping skills and work through underlying trauma.

  • You want a holistic approach that addresses both physical and mental wellness.


How Long is Long-Term?

Long-term programs can vary in duration depending on severity and individual needs. While 30 days may suffice for stabilization, many clients benefit from stays of 60, 90 days, or more to deeply embed change. DeLand Treatment Solutions offers flexible residential durations to match what someone needs for sustainable recovery. 


FAQs About Long-Term Residential Treatment


Is it confidential? Yes. DeLand Treatment Solutions offers 100% confidential care for all clients. 

Does insurance cover it? Many private insurance plans are accepted. The facility helps with insurance verification and explains potential out-of-pocket expenses.

What therapies are included? You’ll engage in individual therapy, group therapy, family therapy, trauma-informed care, psychoeducation, mindfulness-based approaches, recreational/experiential therapies, and the therapeutic support needed for dual diagnosis. 


The Real Difference: Outcomes & Impact


Data shows that people who complete long-term residential treatment are more likely to:

  • Maintain abstinence from substances at follow-up.

  • Show stronger mental health stability.

  • Avoid emergency situations, hospitalization, homelessness.

  • Gain the skills needed for daily life: emotion regulation, relapse prevention, healthy relationships, resilience.

Choosing long-term isn’t always easy, it means committing time, sometimes weeks or months, but the payoff in long-lasting recovery, health, and peace of mind is significant.
