Lightshare Behavioral Wellness & Recovery

Lightshare Behavioral Wellness and Recovery in Sarasota, Florida, was formerly known as First Step of Sarasota. The Lightshare name means that the organization is a light in the dark from crisis to recovery for those with addiction and mental health disorders. They are accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities.

Acute Treatment With Inpatient Services

The center can treat and stabilize individuals experiencing crises related to substance use. Your psychiatrist will likely admit you to inpatient treatment after you’ve stabilized. Detoxification treatment is available if you need help withdrawing from substances.

Medications can be provided to help you manage your cravings and withdrawal symptoms. Clients with co-occurring disorders receive simultaneous treatment for substance use and mental health.

Helpful Outpatient Services

Day and night treatment, also known as partial hospitalization, is available for clients who do not require inpatient services. The treatment includes individual and group counseling. Group therapy is a good way to bond with others in recovery while receiving support, encouragement and feedback from your peers.

Sober Living With Residential Treatment

Some of us do not need acute inpatient treatment but need to be out of the environment we are in to promote recovery. Residential services allow clients to be in a sober environment with therapy, counseling, medical support and activities.

Pregnant women are able to participate in a Mothers and Infants residential program, with services tailored to their specific needs. Lightshare Behavioral Wellness and Recovery is conveniently located near the Sarasota Bradenton International Airport.
