Long Island Center for Recovery

Located in the beautiful Hampton Bay in New York, this facility specializes in treating substance addiction along with co-occurring mental health conditions and process addictions. Long Island Center for Recovery (LICR) was founded in 1995 by Jack Hamilton, one of the first individuals to bring Narcotics Anonymous meetings to the local New York communities. In carrying out Mr. Hamilton’s vision of providing compassionate, professional, and affordable care, the LIRC facility offers a complete range of addiction treatment services including detox and specialized inpatient rehab programs. Specialty program services include a first responders and military group, a gambler anonymous group, a LGBTQ pride group, a union’s labor group, and a women's group. Clients receive individualized treatment plans that utilize 1-on-1 therapy and group therapy. They combine traditional methods with holistic types of care like yoga, meditation, sound therapy, Reiki, and equine therapy. The structured program includes unique therapies like Rapid Resolution Therapy (RRT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), 12-Step facilitation, trauma-specific therapy, and recreational therapy.

Residential treatment takes place in a 50-bed facility that houses both men and women in separate wings of the facility. The one-story house offers spacious living quarts without the hospital feel. The bedrooms are all double occupancy with shared bathrooms throughout, along with lounge areas furnished with large couches and flat screen televisions mounted on the wall. Outside, the grounds provide a quiet oasis for the clients with beautiful gardens areas and a fish pond. Clients will also enjoy delicious meals prepared by in-house chefs. Long Island Center for Recovery provides a good balance of therapies along with a variety of speciality groups, making this facility a one-of-a-kind.
