Caron also offers a huge slate of one- to three-day life-enrichment workshops -- from dance therapy to codependency seminars -- for individuals in all stages of addiction.

Caron, founded in 1957, is firmly rooted in the spiritual approach of Alcoholics Anonymous and other 12-Step programs. "Many programs have steered away from spirituality," says Caron president and C.E.O. Douglas Teiman.

You can trace it back. The most important thing I can say to anyone suffering from compulsive obsessive anything is the word 'shame' must be removed," reported the New York Times.

The Meadows

Located in the Sonoran Desert inside Arizona, The Meadows has an excellent view of mountains along with clear skies for days. "The Meadows provides a path to personal completeness and integrity, for those seeking treatment for trauma and addictions, thus serving the individual with a lifelong recovery process"(themeadows.org). The professional staff include Pia Mellody (known and respected as the Senior Clinical Advisor) Claudia Black (Clinical Consultant and is konwn for her contemporary work with family systems and addictive disorders), John Bradshaw (Counselor, author, theologian and public speaker), Maureen Canning (Clinical Director of Dakota/Clinical Consultant for Sexual Disorder Services and has excellent experience with sexual disorders), Bessel van der Kolk (one of the world foremost authorities in the area of post-traumatic stress and related phenomena), and Peter A. Levine (Clinical Consultant).

The Meadows has two facilities one called Dakota, which is extended care for sexual recovery, and Mellody House. The Meadows Dakota facility is "Set in the peaceful atmosphere of the high desert, the Dakota extended-care facility is dedicated to treating all aspects of sexual disorders. Dakota works with clients to sustain sexual sobriety by facilitating the healing of core issues, which enhances recovery and developmental maturity"(themeadowsdakota.com). "On the other hand, the Mellody House represents the fulfillment of a longstanding goal of The Meadows to create an on-campus extended-care facility to provde ongoing care with a focus on trauma resolution. Mellody House offers upplementary treatment and care for clients who desire to augment and sfegaurd their recovery" (themeadowsmellody.com)

Celebrities have been known to go to Meadows for its secluded location. Supermodel Kate Moss entered the Meadows rehab center in September of 2005. Reportedly Moss's coke habit was the reason for her trip to the Meadows facility. When arriving her "phone was confiscated, as contact with the outside world is forbidden. Lover Pete Doherty found that out when he called, and was told to get lost. TV, mags and papers are banned, drugs and alcohol are out, and caffeine and sugar are off limits. However, group support is in, so, celeb or not, you'll probably share a room" (findarticles.com). The harsh reality of the Meadows method is that no matter who you are you will be treated the same.

Passages: The Place Where the Wealthy and Famous Go to Get Clean

"Gourmet meals, masseuses, 500-tread-count sheets, and private rooms with fireplaces and a view of one of the area's most exclusive beaches. It sounds like a high-end resort, and it is- for the rich and famous looking to kick an addiction. Called Promises Residential Treatment Center, it's the place Britney Spears is supposed to call home for the next month while she tries to grab control of a life that some say is spinning out of control" (San Diego Union-Tribute). 

Britney Spears has joined the list of many famous stars including Ben Affleck, Charlie Sheen, Diana Ross and Matthew Perry who have all been through the excellent treatment program at Promises. Stars come for the best treatment and it doesn't come cheap. For a 30 day stay at Promises Residential Treatment Center it will cost you a large sum of $48,000."What kind of perks can patients expect for $1,600 a night at the 16-person facility? A personal trainer, beautician and private counseling sessions. There are no chores, but the sprawling grounds of the Mediterranean-style villa in the Santa Monica Mountains include tennis and basketball courts, two pools and horseback riding facilities" (San Diego Union-Tribute).

Promises started helping people with there problems in 1989 when they opened their first center. Besides Malibu there's also a facility in West Los Angeles and The Promises Foundation for low-income single mothers in Culver City. "With a maximum of 18 residential treatment clients at each of our two facilities, one of the keys to Promises Treatment Centers success is our size. While many other alcohol and drug treatment facilities can accept more clients, Promises stays small in order to give each person individualized care and attention, so they get the chance they need" (Promises). 

Most recently, Promises, where Britney Spears was treated earlier this year, was the latest to join the growing list of subpoenas served by the attorney representing Kevin Federline as the custody battle over the exes' two young sons continues. A Promises staff member was served yesterday morning. Mark Vincent Kaplan, Kevin's attorney, confirmed to OK! that an administrative assistant at Promises was served a subpoena today.
