The Dunes East Hampton

Our inpatient drug rehab and alcohol addiction treatment protocols follow the evidenced-based Syndrome Model of Addiction developed by our Senior Clinical Advisor, Dr. Howard Shaffer, Associate Professor at Harvard Medical School and the Director of the Division on Addictions at The Cambridge Health Alliance.

The Addiction Syndrome Model suggests that addiction has many expressions – such as alcohol, drugs, excessive eating, shopping or sex. Each expression of addiction is most effectively treated by blending a variety of holistic and clinical protocols accordingly. At The Dunes, we offer a complete array of recommended treatments and resources and we tailor our programs to meet the specific needs of the individual.

This unique approach requires a smaller, more intimate experience. We maintain a staff-to-client ratio of 3:1 to ensure that you are always well attended to and that your needs are met. Once participating in residential recovery at The Dunes alcohol and drug rehab on Long Island, you become a permanent member of our community, as our commitment to you is life-long.
