In general, an effective rehabilitation program should focus on the individual's comprehensive well-being, with a qualified team and evidence-based strategies. The key to success is in the personalization of treatment and continuous follow-up.

I am forever grateful for the transformative experience my child had at Lotus Behavioral Health. From the moment we stepped through the doors, we were enveloped in a warm, nurturing environment that immediately put us at ease. The staff's genuine empathy, compassion, and dedication to each individual's well-being are truly remarkable.

Every team member seems handpicked to create a cohesive, supportive unit that provides constant care and guidance. They foster a positive, engaging atmosphere that encourages growth, healing, and self-discovery. The sense of peace and tranquility that permeates the facility is palpable, and I knew instinctively that my child was in capable, caring hands.

The staff at Lotus Behavioral Health are the embodiment of excellence. Michele’s passion, expertise, and unwavering commitment to her work are inspiring. She is magical!... Read more >

Lotus is a great place! It was our child's first time in a rehab facility, so we have nothing to compare to, but he had a good experience. They do group sessions two times a day, and individual therapy once a week (but could be more as needed I think). Family therapy too. It was an emotional experience sending our child there, but we did feel he was safe there and well taken care of. They do have quite a bit of free time(of course a bht/therapist/admin always present), for good or for bad. I know they are encouraged to use it well. They have around 1 arranged activity every day, like dog therapy 🥰, yoga, and music lessons (my child loved this part), horse therapy field trips etc. Your kid will beg you to bring them home but stay strong, they will learn a lot there even if they say they want to come home and don't like it. It is an "open door" facility which is nice because... Read more >

I cannot say enough positive things about Lotus Behavioral and their inpatient adolescent program. From the moment I walked through the doors, I was struck by the incredible attention to detail in their setup and the cleanliness of the facility… it’s clear they prioritize a safe and supportive environment for their patients.

Having worked in the mental health and substance abuse field for over 10 years, owning my own mental health program, and having my own personal journey through these struggles, I have a unique perspective on what it takes to create a truly impactful program. What stood out the most to me, beyond the impressive program itself, was the heart and passion of the CEO. You can tell that he genuinely cares about the work being done here, and that passion trickles down to his team. Everyone I encountered exuded warmth, empathy, and a true dedication to...

My son was at Lotus for a little over two months and greatly benefited from the experience.
It was surrounded by a loving and caring staff, to an extent that could not reasonably be expected.
It may have been a life-changing experience for him and we are deeply grateful to everyone at Lotus. Read more >

When considering the impact of Lotus, the quote, “A team is only as good as its leader” comes to mind. In that vein, I don’t think you can truly understand Lotus until you know its leader and Executive Director, Gary Hazy. I worked with Gary for eight years and have known him for ten years. During that time, I have personally experienced Gary to be kind and compassionate while also being a tenacious leader. When it comes to doing what is right and best for kids, Gary has high expectations for himself and his staff. He does not accept excuses but is also there to support you every step of the way.

Unfortunately, I do not work with Gary any longer. However, I checked in with him when I heard a hurricane was forecasted to hit Orlando. It was no surprise to me to hear that Gary was at work with the kids and staff riding out the storm. Although all he had to sleep in was his... Read more >

As a volunteer for lotus , I can not say enough about the commitment and dedication of all the volunteers and employees of this non profit organization in pursuit of their mission .In 2023 alone nearly 100 children between the ages of 12 to 17 were treated for addiction to deadly substances and saved from self destruction . In this year nearly 500 thousand dollars of free or subsidized care was provided by this group to disadvantaged families desperately seeking treatment for their children . I am proud to volunteer my time and participate in this wonderful non profit organization Read more >

Lotus Behavorial Health has changed the lives of many adolescents in positive ways. I have seen families who did not know where to turn that have chosen Lotus to take the wheel and intervene when they thought they have tried everything to help their child. Families have stated that they are so grateful that Lotus could turn the lives of their child back around and they can start to live again with a new look on life without the use of substances.
