Your kid's stealing money from your purse again. Or maybe it's your spouse lying about where they've been for the past six hours. Addiction turns people into strangers, and if you're in East Midwood dealing with this nightmare, you probably feel like you're losing your mind. We get it.
We've heard every story, seen every lie, and watched families fall apart over this disease. The good news? Finding the best detox program doesn't have to be another headache. We know how to help people get clean and stay that way.
Look, detox is rough. Anyone who tells you otherwise is lying. Some people shake for days, others can't keep food down, and a few end up having seizures. That's why trying to quit at home is stupid and dangerous. Urban Recovery has doctors here 24/7 who've seen it all before.
They know which medications help with withdrawal and which ones just make things worse. We handle alcohol, heroin, pills, meth—whatever's got its hooks in you. Once your body stops fighting you, we start working on your head. Our therapists don't sugarcoat anything, but they also don't treat you like you're broken forever.
We're over in Red Hook, which is nothing like what you'd expect from a rehab place. It's quiet, right on the water, and you can actually see the Statue of Liberty from our roof. Sounds cheesy, but people tell us it helps them remember there's still hope out there. The building is clean and new—no weird smells or outdated furniture that make you feel worse about being there.
Dr. Richard Gold runs our medical team, and Amy Sirken handles the day-to-day stuff. They both know what they're doing, and they hire people who actually give a damn about whether you succeed or not.
Here's the truth nobody wants to hear—leaving rehab is terrifying. You're clean, you feel better, but you still have to go back to the same neighborhood, the same problems, and the same people who might not understand what you're trying to do. That's why we spend time figuring out your next steps before you walk out the door.
Some people need sober living houses. Others do outpatient therapy three times a week. We help you find what works in your area and make sure you're not flying blind when you leave.
East Midwood sits right in the middle of Brooklyn, between Flatbush and Prospect Park South. It's one of those neighborhoods where people actually stay put—families live here for decades, and kids grow up and buy houses on the same street as their parents. You've got your mix of apartments and houses, decent schools, and local shops along Avenue J, where everyone knows each other's business.
It's the kind of place where people notice when something's wrong, which can be good or bad depending on what you're dealing with. Stop making excuses and call us. We can't fix everything, but we can help you get started.
