Brooklyn Navy Yard has always been about grit, reinvention, and showing up when it counts. If addiction has turned your life upside down, you already know how isolating that feels. Finding a reliable rehabilitation center in New York shouldn't add more stress. We're a CARF-certified detox and inpatient facility in Red Hook, about ten minutes from the Yard. Over 500 people have walked through our doors and come out the other side with their lives back.
Willpower alone won't get you sober. You need people who actually know what they're doing. At Urban Recovery, that means working with Program Director Amy Sirken and Medical Director Dr. Richard Gold, professionals who've spent years helping people through the hardest moments of withdrawal and early recovery. We hold dual licenses from the New York State Office of Addiction Services for medically supervised withdrawal and inpatient rehab. That's not a marketing line. It means we meet the toughest standards in the state, and we take that seriously from your first phone call to the day you walk out.
Your story isn't the same as anyone else's, so your treatment shouldn't be either. We use medication-assisted treatment when it makes sense, one-on-one counseling to dig into what's really going on, and group sessions where you'll connect with others who get it. Addiction doesn't exist in a vacuum. Mental health, trauma, relationships, all of it plays a role. We treat the full picture, not just the substance. Whether it's alcohol, opioids, or something else, we build a plan around you.
Most treatment centers in the city feel clinical and cold. Ours doesn't. We're in Red Hook, right on the waterfront, with rooftop views of the Statue of Liberty and New York Bay. It's quiet. It's clean. It's the kind of space where your nervous system can finally settle down, and you can actually focus on getting better.
We do same-day admissions. We accept all major insurance. If paperwork and red tape have been holding you back, let us handle it. You call, we verify your coverage, and we get you in. That's it.
The Navy Yard has been part of Brooklyn since 1801, when it opened as a federal shipyard along Wallabout Bay. Ships that fought in the Civil War and World War II were built here. Today, those 300 acres house over 13,000 workers in manufacturing, film production, and tech startups. Fort Greene, Clinton Hill, Williamsburg, and DUMBO all border the Yard. This neighborhood knows something about transformation, about building something new from what's left behind.
