About Coastal Recovery Center
Coastal Recovery Center in Myrtle Beach, SC offers medical detox, intensive outpatient, and outpatient programs for adults navigating substance use and co-occurring disorders. With a physician-led clinical team, built-in aftercare support, and services for a wide range of populations — including veterans, young adults, and pregnant women — it functions as a long-term recovery partner, not just a first step.
Coastal Recovery Center is a substance use treatment facility located at 1113 44th Avenue North in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, serving individuals who are ready to address addiction and the mental health conditions that often travel alongside it. Founded by Spencer Josey and M. Dean Lang, and guided medically by Dr. Brian K. Adler, MD, the center operates in a comfortable, supportive environment designed for people who need structured clinical care without leaving the Myrtle Beach community behind. The facility brings together founding leadership and licensed clinical staff — including Licensed Professional Counselor Associate Jon Darling — under one roof, giving clients continuity of care from intake through long-term recovery.
The center's continuum of care spans three distinct levels: Medical Detox for those beginning the process of withdrawal, an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) for clients who need structured, multi-day treatment while maintaining outside responsibilities, and a standard Outpatient Program for ongoing substance abuse treatment and support. This layered approach means clients can move through levels of care as their needs evolve rather than being discharged without a clear next step. Family services are integrated into the model, and private counseling sessions are available alongside group formats.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) anchors the clinical approach at Coastal Recovery Center, giving clients practical tools to identify and reshape the thought patterns connected to substance use and co-occurring conditions. The center treats trauma and PTSD, depression, anxiety, and dual diagnosis cases — conditions that frequently appear alongside addiction and require coordinated care rather than siloed treatment. Aftercare is a formal part of the program, not an afterthought: the center provides aftercare support and monitoring, sober living connections, individual and group counseling referrals, and ongoing monitoring to support recovery well beyond the final session.
Coastal Recovery Center serves a broad spectrum of populations, including veterans, pregnant women, young adults ages 18–25, seniors, men, women, individuals with HIV/AIDS support needs, and court-ordered clients. Payment options include private insurance and self-pay. For anyone in the Myrtle Beach area evaluating a recovery center that can carry them from detox through aftercare — and that addresses the mental health side of addiction directly — Coastal Recovery Center represents a clinically grounded, community-rooted option.
Medical Detox and Outpatient Recovery Programs in Myrtle Beach
Coastal Recovery Center offers three levels of care that can serve someone at the beginning of their recovery journey or support them through ongoing treatment. Medical Detox provides physician-supervised care for clients starting the process of withdrawal, with Dr. Brian K. Adler, MD overseeing the medical side of treatment. From there, clients can step into the Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) — a structured format that allows people to engage in meaningful treatment while maintaining their daily lives in the Myrtle Beach community.
The standard Outpatient Program extends care further, giving clients in longer-term recovery access to continued substance abuse treatment, counseling, and monitoring. This continuum matters because addiction recovery rarely follows a straight line. Having access to multiple levels of care through a single treatment team reduces the disruption that comes with transferring between facilities and keeps clinical relationships intact across the full arc of treatment.
Aftercare, Sober Living Support, and Life After Treatment
Coastal Recovery Center takes aftercare seriously as a clinical commitment rather than a discharge checklist. The center provides structured aftercare support and monitoring, connections to sober living resources, and referrals for individual and group counseling after the primary treatment phase concludes. Ongoing monitoring keeps the clinical team engaged with a client's progress in real time, allowing for adjustments before small setbacks become larger ones.
For families navigating a loved one's recovery, family services are available as part of the program. This reflects an understanding that recovery is rarely a solo process — the people closest to someone in treatment are often directly affected and benefit from being included in the care model. Together, these aftercare and family-oriented elements position Coastal Recovery Center as a long-term recovery community resource, not simply an entry point into treatment.
Co-Occurring Disorders and the CBT Framework
Many people entering addiction treatment carry unaddressed or underdiagnosed mental health conditions alongside their substance use. Coastal Recovery Center formally treats co-occurring disorders and dual diagnosis cases, as well as trauma and PTSD, depression, and anxiety — conditions that frequently drive or sustain addictive behaviors when left unaddressed. Treating these conditions within the same program reduces the gap between mental health care and addiction recovery that often undermines treatment outcomes.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is the therapeutic foundation at Coastal Recovery Center. CBT is a structured, skills-based approach that helps clients examine the connections between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors — particularly the patterns that have reinforced substance use over time. Applied within both individual and group counseling formats, it gives clients practical tools they can continue using long after formal treatment ends.

The facility serves veterans, pregnant women, young adults between 18 and 25, seniors and older adults, men, women, individuals with HIV/AIDS support needs, and those entering treatment through court order. This breadth reflects a clinical program built to meet people where they are rather than a one-size approach to addiction recovery.
