Here at Maui Recovery, we help our clients unplug from their devices and fully become involved with the healing environment that we provide. We also want to make sure that they understand the importance of physical exercise, self-care, and immersing themselves in nature.
Nature immersion is an evidence-based intervention that we have implemented in the recovery journey here at Maui Recovery. We believe that offering adventures in the magical beauty of Maui, which includes hiking, diving from a waterfall, enjoying a majestic sunset, and even snorkeling, all have therapeutic.
Our Clinical staff is trained in EMDR use. This method is used to address and assist a person who has experienced trauma, which had significantly and negatively impacted their recovery. Incorporating elements of cognitive-behavioral therapy with eye movements have proven to be effective in the treatment.
The root causes of problems must be pinpointed and cleared. Only then can positive changes ensure. Negative emotions and destructive behavioral patterns can be eliminated.
