Famous Celebrity Drug and Alcohol
Rehab Centers
The top drug and alcohol rehab centers and treatment programs
for celebrities and other famous people are listed below. Famous
celebrities need drug rehab just like anyone else.
But, the treatment programs for celebrity drug addicts need to
offer more privacy to fend off paparazzi and gawkers from interfering.
Probably the most famous drug rehab center is the Betty Ford Center.
The Betty Ford Center was made famous by the famous first lady
and wife of President Gerald Ford. The famous Betty Ford Center
is located in Rancho Mirage, California and attends to both drug
addicts and alcoholics.
Some of the celebrities on our list who have gone into rehab
at the Betty Ford's clinic include Ozzy Osbourne, Keith Urban
and Chevy Chase. Daughter Susan Ford serves as Chairman of the
Board at this celebrity rehab facility.
The Pasadena Recovery Center has been made famous by the filming
of "Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew". Dr. Drew Pinsky,
in his third season on the show facilitates the recovery for a
handful of celebrities who are featured elsewhere among these
pages.
The Cirque Lodge Treatment Center located in Orem, Utah has been
the home to many celebrity drug addicts and famous alcoholics.
The Cirque Lodge offers actually two treatment centers including
the Lodge and the Studio which offer privacy plus a view of the
nearby Sundance Ski Resort.
Some of the famous names on the list who have been at the Cirque
Lodge include Eva Mendes and Lindsay
Lohan. Actress Kirsten Dunst is also said to have been a resident
for a while. Besides privacy, this famous rehab center offers
expert diagnosis, experiential therapy, and Family Week when the
client is ready.
Promises Treatment Center in Malibu, California is one of the
top choices for celebrity drug addicts and those with alcohol
addictions. Promises Malibu offers private drug and alcohol treatment
within the panoramic confines of the Santa Monica Mountains enveloping
the Pacific Ocean.
Some of the famous celebs on the list that have been guests include
Diana Ross, Britney Spears, Robert
Downy Jr., Mel Gibson, and Ben
Affleck. This is one of the most expensive and famous celebrity
rehab centers that Hollywood actors and actresses tend to gravitate
towards.
The Passages Rehab Facility is a popular alternative for famous
people and celebrities with drug and alcohol addictions. The Passages
Malibu (and Ventura) Rehab Centers don't use the 12-step model
of recovery or label clients as drug addicts or alcoholics.
Identifying the underlying causes, dual diagnostics and intensive
one-on-one therapy is what Passages Malibu advocate for and delivers.
Some of the celebs who have frequented this facility include David
Hasselhoff, Polly Shore, Stephen Baldwin and Andy Dick. These
last two have also been on "Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew"
at the Pasadena Recovery Center.
The Caron Foundation is a drug and alcohol treatment organization
in Wernersville, Pennsylvania with a new facility opening in Texas
in July 2010. The Caron Foundation helps treat both adults and
adolescents, many of which who are wealthy, famous and of celebrity
status.
While not as expensive as Passages or Promises, the Caron Foundation
is more expensive than the Betty Ford Center. Some of the celebrities
and notables who have made a stay at the Caron Foundation include
Liza Minneli, Miss USA Tara Conner and Stephen Tyler from Aerosmith.
These are the most famous drug and alcohol rehab centers in the
United States for those who have the money to attend them. For
more privacy, many celebrities travel offshore to other countries
to avoid the paparazzi and reputation management nightmares. But,
this isn't advisable in all cases when family help plays a vital
role in recovery. If there happens to be a famous rehab center
we have missed, send it in and we'll take a look and see if this
facility makes our top list.
