About Eleos Wellness

Formerly known as Personal Enrichment Through Mental Health Services, Eleos Wellness is a non profit organization that provides a full continuum of care including crisis intervention and addiction treatment. Pinellas Park, Florida, is home to their main campus which offers inpatient crisis stabilization for adults and children, substance abuse detox for kids under 18, and access to emergency services. Eleos accepts voluntary and involuntary admissions.

Eleos acts like a public receiving facility 24 hours per day, seven days a week. Emergency screenings are available here for people in the community. Crisis hospitalization is available if required following an assessment. In the adult crisis stabilization unit, adults 18 and older can receive short term treatment. If admitted, you’ll receive person centered treatment that encourages self determination, recovery and resilience. During your short stay you’ll engage in individual and group therapy, health education and recreational activities. You’ll also receive an aftercare plan and medication management.

Eleos is also a juvenile addiction recovery facility. This means they have specialized services for youth aged 13 through 17. The goal of treatment is to provide detox for youth and evaluate them medically and psychologically. Discharge planning begins at admission with information and referrals. Clients receive therapy and participate in groups. Family support is also provided.

People who’ve used the services at Eleos say that during a hard time in life, this facility gave them kindness and compassion that were invaluable. Clients also mention the professionalism and understanding that was extended to them during treatment.

Held my daughter there 6 hours after a baker act before she was transported to another facility because we are worried more about the insurance money than a 12 year old girls well being.

Ian Webb's review hits the nail right on the head. Awful, awful place. Firstly, I was Baker Acted despite the fact I complied with law enforcement without resistance or offense.The bathrooms are mildewy and musty. They tried putting a kids' size dressing on me and took way too long to provide proper clothing. They require you ASK them for permission to use the bathroom, or to even have a cup of water! They provide little to do besides childish word searches and coloring books, or whatever shows they feel like playing on the tiny TV. The children from the children's ward won't shut up and you can hear it from across the one hallway. The "doctor" I met with didn't have the courtesy of meeting me in person - Zoom meeting only! I barely understood half of what he said, and he barely bothered to listen to me as a patient and human being.Oh, and they injected a B52 intramuscular injection (haldol?) into my buttocks - against my will!!! - for stepping out of line. This caused my jaw to go haywire and scared the absolute crap out of me. I thought my jaw was going to break from extreme pressure. I spent every waking moment in this place on edge, and I barely got a wink of sleep even on Seroquel! Even after I left, my mental health and sleep hasn't been the same. I can only imagine what they will charge me for such an AMAZING experience.TL;DR: This place is an absolute cesspool of a prison that NEEDS to be shut down. Eleos needs to be held accountable for the abhorrent "care" they give mentally and emotionally vulnerable people at PEHMS.P.S. They make people sleep in the main area in "boats" despite having more than enough beds for everyone, AND they put the adults in the child's ward (and vice versa).

Accepted Insurance

Eleos Wellness works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

Other Forms of Payment

Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.

Sliding scale payments are based on a client's income and family size. The goal is to make treatment affordable to everyone. By taking these factors into account, addiction recovery care providers help ensure that your treatment does not become a financial burden to you or your family, eliminating one barrier to care.

Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.

Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

inpatient iconInpatient
Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

Treatments

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

Mental health rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and more. Mental health professionals at these facilities are trained to understand and treat mental health issues, both in individual and group settings.

Programs

Adult Program
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
young-adult-program thumbnail image
Young Adult Program
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.

Clinical Services

Therapists who apply cognitive behavioral therapy in Florida believe patient thoughts and behaviors are closely linked. They use this treatment method to help clients change their thought patterns so they can also change behaviors and break free from substance abuse.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.

Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) is a way of getting nicotine into the bloodstream without smoking. It uses products that supply low doses of nicotine to help people stop smoking. The goal of therapy is to cut down on cravings for nicotine and ease the symptoms of nicotine withdrawal.

I would like to thank Yamalee for all her help and support. So many situations have happened within the last two months which caused me to fall so far behind. I was told about this source of help through a friend and It was the best decision to call. Yamalee answered all my questions and out her all in to help me. She was very guiene and showed much concern about my situation and advised me on other things to help me as I move forward. I appreciate and thank her so much. May you be blessed for all you do for others. Thank you.

During a particularly difficult period in my life, the kindness and compassion I received from a PEMHS were invaluable. My casework Amber went above and beyond to ensure I felt supported, treating me with dignity and respect throughout the process. She listened attentively to my situation, providing not just information but also emotional reassurance that I was not alone in my struggles. PEMHS timely assistance and practical resources helped alleviate some of the burdens I was facing, allowing me to regain my footing. The genuine care they showed made a significant impact on my journey, reminding me of the importance of community and support in times of need. I m in so grateful for all their support and assistance!

Some great techs but some should be ashamed. Wonderful nurses but avoid this place at all cost!!!! I was released and they drove me to the next spot for my issue with Bi Polar and they also drove three other people only to be told there wasn't room for us so they left us STRANDED in a not great area of St. Pete. Everyone just started walking, weak from medications and a hospital stay. Shame on this place. What they did was awful. The discharge person who did that was named Linda. She should be fired. She cares little about anything other than her paycheck and I'm grateful I could make other plans after being dumped. Others with me did not have a plan. I wonder how she sleeps at night??
