What is integrated Treatment?
A whole-person approach:
The Naples Integrated Recovery Symbol
At the heart of Naples Integrated Recovery lies the Flower of Life — a symbol of wholeness. It reflects the belief that nothing in us is broken, only disconnected. Recovery is the process of reintegrating those parts — mind, body, spirit, and connection — into alignment.
The Triangle — The Three Legacies of Recovery
At the center is the triangle, borrowed from the 12-step tradition, representing balance among:
Recovery – Healing the self through restoration and accountability.
Unity – Healing in relationship through belonging and honesty.
Service – Healing through purpose — transforming pain into meaning and direction.
When these are balanced, the result is emotional stability — a calm, integrated state where peace no longer depends on control.
The Circles — Dimensions of the Self
Surrounding the triangle are six interlocking circles that represent the dimensions of wellness:
Physical – Caring for the body through sleep, nutrition, movement, and balance. Restoring safety and presence reconnects the self to the present moment.
Emotional – Building awareness of internal reactions without becoming overwhelmed or enveloped by them — learning to pause, choose a response, and intentionally shift the emotional state.
Mental – Recognizing how our filtered stories shape perception and learning to replace them with clarity, reality testing, and compassionate truth.
Social – Honoring our need for connection and interdependence with others, while developing healthy boundaries and self-respect in relationships.
Spiritual – Exploring meaning and purpose in ways that fit each person’s values — whether through mindfulness, service, reflection, or faith. The focus is not on religion, but on helping individuals discover what sustains and guides them.
Environmental – Creating surroundings that support regulation, focus, and calm. The spaces we inhabit — light, sound, order, and nature — directly affect our mood and sense of safety. A supportive environment becomes part of the treatment plan.
When these dimensions align, the self becomes integrated — thoughts, emotions, and actions moving in the same direction.
The Petals — Expressions of the Authentic Self
Radiating outward, the six petals represent the natural expressions that unfold as we live from our authentic self — the part of us that leads with steadiness, honesty, and care. These qualities are borrowed from Internal Family Systems parts work:
Calm – Responding to life from steadiness rather than urgency.
Curiosity – Meeting experiences with openness instead of judgment.
Compassion – Relating to self and others with understanding, not control.
Clarity – Seeing ourselves and our choices more clearly, without old filters.
Courage – Facing discomfort and change with honesty and willingness.
Congruence – Living in alignment with values; letting inner truth guide outward behavior.
The petals symbolize movement — how internal healing expresses itself outwardly through behavior, relationships, and purpose. They remind us that integration isn’t static; it’s the way we show up in the world.
Integrated Recovery
The geometry as a whole is a map:
The triangle anchors purpose.
The circles cultivate wholeness.
The petals embody the authentic self in action.
Together they reflect one truth:
Healing isn’t about fixing — it’s about integrating.
When every part of the self moves in harmony, recovery becomes a way of life.
