About

About Hawaii Island Recovery

Hawaii Island Recovery operates a premier addiction treatment center on the Big Island of Hawaii, just outside Kailua-Kona. The program is dually accredited by CARF and The Joint Commission, signaling adherence to recognized clinical and operational standards. Clients arrive at a campus surrounded by the natural beauty of Hawaii, where the environment is treated as part of the therapeutic experience rather than a backdrop.

Treatment follows a clear continuum. Medically managed detox uses physician oversight to help clients move through withdrawal safely, after which a structured residential program supports deeper clinical work. Outpatient services and telehealth assessments extend access for clients who need step-down care or who are coordinating treatment from outside Hawaii. Each admission begins with a full physical exam by Medical Director Stephen H. Denzer, M.D., FACP, board certified in addiction and internal medicine, and a biopsychosocial assessment that informs an individualized plan.

Clinically, Hawaii Island Recovery is centered on evidence-based modalities such as cognitive behavioral therapy and dual diagnosis treatment for co-occurring depression, anxiety, and trauma. These are paired with experiential and holistic services including yoga, meditation, and nature-based programming that reflect the island’s natural environment. The clinical team, led by Frank Capatch, LCSW, also includes substance abuse counselor Fernando Manon, MSED., CSAC and family therapist David Molletti, BS, NCACI, CFTP.

The program serves veterans, pregnant women, seniors, court-ordered clients, and individuals seeking specialized care for trauma and HIV/AIDS support. TRICARE acceptance and sliding-scale options widen access, and a published commitment to support long-term recovery shapes the program’s emphasis on relapse-prevention planning, alumni connection, and continuing care.
