Specialized Professional Team

Inviting some of the most sought after talent and highly skilled healthcare professionals in the field to work with us, we've been able to develop a dynamic program with expertise in the key areas of addiction to alcohol and/or other drugs, eating disorders, such as anorexia or bulimia, associated trauma, chronic pain, and/or depression or anxiety.

At Casa Palmera, we have assembled a comprehensive, highly skilled, knowledgeable staff of treatment professionals who have full credentials and are board certified where required. Inherent in this diversity is our unity of purpose: to work as a team to help each resident experience healing and learn the tools necessary to continue to live a healthy, productive and satisfying life.
