About Ambrosia Treatment Center
Ambrosia Treatment Center in Port Saint Lucie, Florida is part of Ambrosia Behavioral Health, a multi-site Florida network of inpatient, outpatient, and specialty behavioral health programs. The Port Saint Lucie location at 546 NW University Boulevard #103 anchors the network’s Treasure Coast presence and serves adolescents and adults from across the region for primary mental health, substance use disorder, and dual-diagnosis care. The facility runs alongside Ambrosia’s Neuroscience Institute, Midwest Detox at Ambrosia, and The Academy at Ambrosia, giving clients a wide continuum of care under one organization.
Programming is built around an applied-neuroscience model. In addition to traditional evidence-based therapies such as CBT for substance abuse, DBT, EMDR, individual, group, and family therapy, and psychodrama, the Ambrosia network offers TMS therapy, ketamine-assisted therapy for mental health and addiction, neurofeedback, and quantitative brain mapping. Holistic therapies and peer support round out the model. Clinically, the organization treats a broad list of conditions, including mood disorders, anxiety disorders, OCD, PTSD, eating disorders, schizophrenia, personality disorders, and the full range of substance use disorders from alcohol and opioids to stimulants, benzodiazepines, and inhalants.
Ambrosia operates specialty tracks for groups that often need tailored care: veterans, first responders, healthcare professionals, women, LGBTQ+ clients, and geriatric adults. The organization also runs an adolescent inpatient and PHP program through The Academy, plus a VIP program for high-profile clients. Detox is handled through Midwest Detox at Ambrosia, after which clients can step down through inpatient, PHP, IOP, outpatient, and aftercare.
Admissions operate 24/7 with same-day intake. Ambrosia is in-network or accepts benefits from UnitedHealthcare, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, Empire BCBS, Horizon BCBS, and TRICARE, and offers insurance verification online. Medical content is overseen by Dr. Danesh Alam, MD, DFAPA, DFASAM, who is listed as the network’s Medical Reviewer.
