About Grandview Foundation
Grandview Foundation Marengo House is a Joint-Commission-accredited Treatment Center located in Pasadena, California. They specialize in treating men who are struggling with substance abuse disorders. The levels of care available here include residential treatment, outpatient treatment and sober living. Other services available here include medication-assisted treatment (MAT), personalized treatment plans, group therapy, trauma informed care, relapse prevention and family therapy.
Where this treatment is located provides so many local attractions and things to do. Pasadena has botanical gardens, museums, the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, historical walking areas and the California Institute of Technology, just to name a few sites. It’s also a short drive to Universal Studios.
Their MAT program combines medication and behavioral therapy. This treatment is designed for individuals who are struggling with chemical dependency. It can be challenging to stay focused when you are struggling with withdrawals and cravings. This medication alleviates those symptoms and blocks the sensations opioids have on the brain.
While you are in residential care, they allow family visits so you can stay connected to your family during this time of transition. Community projects, group counseling, 12-step meetings and wellness programs will be part of your weekly schedule. They provide a comfortable and secure atmosphere to help you feel at home during treatment. The duration can last up to 120 days but some people only day for 30 days.
During treatment, you will develop a personalized treatment plan with a therapist. In one-on-one counseling sessions, you’ll be able to express your emotions, fears and vulnerabilities in a safe setting. Holistic therapies will also be incorporated to help you regulate your emotions, heal from trauma, build self resilience, improve brain function and develop trust.
After you’ve completed inpatient treatment, they offer supportive housing within the area. This can help you develop structure, incorporate a routine, receive continuing support and stay connected with your sober peers.
