About Treatment Solutions of South Florida

1st Step Behavioral Health is a licensed, dual-diagnosis rehabilitation center focused on long-term care for people struggling with substance use disorders. As a full-service alcohol and drug treatment provider, the center supports individuals and families affected by addiction and co-occurring mental health conditions while they work toward recovery. Its programs include medical detox, residential rehab, PHP, IOP, and outpatient services.

The 1st Step medical detox process generally lasts between 3 and 10 days. During detox, clients receive daily medical evaluations, continuous supervision, appropriate meals, and vitamin support. When detox is completed, individuals can move into residential treatment, which typically lasts about 30 days. Residential programming combines multiple evidence-based therapies such as CBT, DBT, EMDR, 12-Step support, individual counseling, gestalt therapy, animal-assisted therapy, and gender-specific group sessions.

In addition, 1st Step offers educational programming covering relapse prevention, healthy communication, goal setting, and coping strategies. For clients who require dual-diagnosis care, the center provides specialized groups and medication management. 1st Step also delivers tailored support for professionals, including police officers, firefighters, and paramedics, with program components designed to fit the needs of these roles.

The center is located in Pompano Beach, just north of Fort Lauderdale, and offers condo-style housing in sunny Florida. Clients live in gender-specific units shared with one other person, with each resident receiving a full-size bed. Those in the program can also use amenities such as an on-site pool and attractive outdoor gathering spaces. 1st Step emphasizes meeting clients where they are and delivering quality treatment. The center is accredited by the Joint Commission and accepts most private insurance plans.
