About

About BriteLife Recovery

BriteLife Recovery South Carolina operates from a residential campus at 2200 Main Street on Hilton Head Island, in the Lowcountry of South Carolina. It is the flagship Southern location of the BriteLife Recovery network, which also runs programs in Hanover, Pennsylvania; West Kill, New York; and Princeton, New Jersey. The Hilton Head campus pairs evidence-based addiction treatment with the natural environment of one of the Atlantic coast’s best-known barrier islands.

Care follows a continuum that begins with medical detox and moves through residential treatment and aftercare. Detox provides 24-hour medical monitoring and medications to ease withdrawal, giving patients a safe foundation before they begin the work of residential care. The residential program blends cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, nature-informed therapy, and the BALM Family Recovery model, which engages families as participants in the recovery process rather than bystanders. Co-occurring mental health conditions, including anxiety and depression, are treated alongside substance use.

Gender-specific care is a particular strength of the South Carolina campus. A separate women’s residential program in nearby Bluffton offers trauma-informed care designed around the specific recovery needs of women. The clinical scope includes alcohol, cocaine, fentanyl, heroin, marijuana, and methamphetamine addiction, plus medication-assisted treatment for opioid use disorder where appropriate.

BriteLife is in-network with a wide list of commercial insurance plans, including Aetna, Beacon Health Options, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Magellan Health, MedCost, Meritain Health, Optum, United Behavioral Health, UnitedHealthcare, and UPMC Health Plan. The leadership team listed publicly includes Teddy Friedman, Matt Mantone, Michael Frisbie, and Dr. Jennifer Richards. Admissions can be reached 24/7 at (866) 470-1464 or the Hilton Head line at (866) 501-6358.
