About this Recovery House
Seafield Center is a recovery residence and inpatient treatment facility in Westhampton Beach, New York, in Suffolk County. Seafield operates it on Seafield Lane as a 100-bed drug and alcohol detox and rehabilitation program for men and women over the age of 16.
A Hundred-Bed Recovery Facility on the East End
One hundred beds makes this one of the largest residential addiction facilities on Long Island. Men and women live on the same campus and are placed in gender-specific groups so clinical work can address what each population actually brings. The minimum age is 16, which is lower than most adult facilities and opens the door to older adolescents who have aged past pediatric programs and are not ready for a general adult unit.
Detox and Rehabilitation Under One Roof
The facility handles both withdrawal management and the rehabilitation phase that follows. That combination removes a transfer at the most fragile point in the process. A person who completes detox somewhere else has to be admitted somewhere else within days, and the gap is where a large share of people disappear. Here the medical stabilization and the treatment that follows happen in the same building with the same staff. The medical director is board certified in psychiatry and addiction medicine, and psychiatric evaluations are available on site.
What Daily Life Looks Like in This Sober Living Setting
Programming runs well past the clinical hours. The schedule includes acupuncture, fitness classes, meditation, music workshops, nutritional counseling, pilates, recreation therapy, spiritual guidance and yoga. The campus has a basketball court, a volleyball court, a recreation room, a laundry room, a gift shop and in-house chefs. Twelve-step recovery meetings are held on site daily. Dual-focused groups serve residents with depression, anxiety and other co-occurring conditions, and specialty groups covering LGBT residents, eating disorders and domestic violence run as need arises.
Westhampton Beach and Recovery Housing on Eastern Long Island
Westhampton Beach is an incorporated village on the South Shore of eastern Suffolk County, near the point where the island narrows toward the forks. Riverhead, the county seat, sits to the north and holds the county courts and offices. The setting is residential and coastal, well away from the dense central-island corridors, which is a meaningful part of what a residential program on the East End offers: distance from the streets and the contacts a resident is trying to leave behind.
Where Residents Go After This Recovery Home
Seafield operates ten recovery homes across Long Island with 154 sober house beds in total, in Riverhead, Medford, Amityville, Uniondale and Hempstead. A resident finishing inpatient care can move into that housing without changing organizations, which keeps the treatment record and the staff relationships intact through the transition. New York does not require recovery residences to hold certification, and what the state's voluntary credentials cover is explained in this guide to sober house certification in New York.
