  • Private, confidential treatment setting
  • Neuroscience-based care for brain health and regulation
  • Addiction and mental health support
  • TBI / concussion-informed treatment planning

Why athletes choose us

When performance hides what is really going on

Many athletes keep performing long after something feels wrong. You may still be training, competing, working, or appearing in control while privately dealing with symptoms that are becoming harder to manage.

Signs we hear from athletes

If a few of these resonate, a confidential conversation may help clarify the picture.

  • Alcohol or drug use to cope with pressure, pain, sleep, or emotions
  • Prescription medication concerns after injury or surgery
  • Anxiety, depression, or burnout
  • Sleep disruption or racing thoughts
  • Chronic pain or difficulty recovering from injury
  • Concussion or TBI-related symptoms
  • Loss of focus, motivation, or emotional control
  • Impulsivity, irritability, or mood swings
  • Feeling like you have to hide what is really happening

Why athletes need a different kind of treatment

Athletes face pressures that standard treatment programs do not always understand. Your body, identity, career, and public image may all be tied to performance. Injury, pain, sleep, mental health, and substance use can overlap in ways that require more than a generic recovery plan.

Privacy and discretion

A treatment environment where your career, contracts, and public profile are protected — confidential admissions, private communication, and no public exposure.

Performance pressure and public visibility

Specialists who understand the weight of public expectation, contract dynamics, and the difficulty of stepping away from a public role.

Injury history and pain management

Coordinated pain protocols that address chronic pain or post-surgical concerns without reigniting substance use cycles.

Anxiety, depression, and emotional regulation

Evidence-based therapy and psychiatric support for mood, focus, and emotional control — the conditions athletes are most likely to mask.

Sleep and recovery

Sleep is foundational to athletic and clinical recovery. Our team treats sleep disruption as a clinical priority, not an afterthought.

Concussion and TBI history

Brain-based assessment and neurofeedback for athletes with prior head injuries whose current symptoms may have a neurological origin.

Brain health

Neuroscience-based care for athletes

Depending on your clinical needs, care may include any combination of neuroscience-based services, psychiatric evaluation and medication management, evidence-based therapy, and clinical assessments to monitor progress.

These services may support areas such as focus and refocusing, stress response regulation, anxiety and hyperarousal, sleep management, emotional balance, depression symptoms, cognitive functioning, TBI/concussion-related concerns, and recovery from substance use.

Neuroscience services we offer

A coordinated set of brain-based assessments and interventions, paired with traditional therapy and psychiatric care.

3D Brain Mapping (qEEG)

Quantitative EEG to identify dysregulation patterns and guide targeted treatment.

Bio-Neurofeedback

Real-time training to help the brain return to healthier baseline patterns of activity.

TMS / rTMS Therapy

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation when clinically appropriate, especially for treatment-resistant mood symptoms.

Psychiatric Medication Management

Board-certified psychiatric oversight that pairs medications with neuroscience-based data.

Clinical Assessments & Progress Tracking

Standardized scoring (PHQ-9, GAD-7, BAM) and clinical review to ensure care is moving the needle.

Evidence-Based Therapy

CBT, DBT, EMDR, and trauma-focused work integrated with the brain-based services above.

  • Addiction and substance use
  • Depression and anxiety
  • Prescription medication concerns
  • Trauma and PTSD
  • TBI and concussion-related symptoms

  • Focus, motivation, and emotional regulation

Discretion is foundational to how we admit, treat, and discharge our athlete clients.

Why Pure Recovery

Why Choose Pure Recovery?

Athletes and high performers choose Pure Recovery for the same reasons their teams trust elite medicine: privacy, precision, and a team that treats the whole person.

Trusted by Professional Athletes

The same caliber of care elite athletes rely on — now accessible to high performers in every field.

Advanced Treatment Methods

Beyond traditional therapy: TMS, brain mapping, and neuro/biofeedback, paired with evidence-based clinical care.

Privacy First

Confidential admissions, private communication, and a discreet beachfront setting away from public view.

Insurance-Friendly

We work with most major insurers and handle verification, so premium care is more accessible than expected.

The right level of care for your situation

Not every athlete needs the same thing. Some need full residential immersion away from the season and the spotlight; others need a structured step-down that fits around training, rehab, or a return to play. We use ASAM and LOCUS criteria to recommend the right starting point — and adjust as you stabilize.

  • Medical detox when physical dependence is present
  • Residential treatment for full immersion away from the spotlight
  • PHP and IOP step-down that fits around training and life
  • Outpatient and alumni support for the long arc of recovery

Care from a multidisciplinary team

You are not handed off between disconnected providers. A coordinated team — psychiatry, therapy, neuroscience, nursing, and wellness — builds and adjusts your plan together, on the same chart, with one point of accountability.

That coordination is what makes it possible to treat substance use, mental health, pain, sleep, and brain health as one connected picture rather than separate problems.
