About Janus of Santa Cruz
Janus of Santa Cruz, California, offers a full continuum of substance use programs including detoxification, residential treatment, medicated assisted treatment (MAT), outpatient programs (OP), DUI services, counseling, and sober housing. Janus also offers a residential treatment program for women who are pregnant or have young children at their Mondanaro Baskin Center, also in Santa Cruz.
The usual first step of recovery from a chemical dependency is detox. Janus of Santa Cruz offers medically supervised withdrawal management, in a comfortable and safe residential environment. You don’t need to worry about withdrawal as you’ll be prescribed medications that ease cravings and withdrawal symptoms.
Their adult residential program combines personalized treatment with education and support systems within the community. Days at the comfortable residential center are filled with individual and group counseling, talks from motivational speakers, support group meetings, and treatment for co-occurring disorders if appropriate. Additional activities to heal the body and mind include yoga classes, acupuncture, swimming at a local swim center, and daily recreational walks at the beautiful beaches of Santa Cruz.
Outpatient treatment services for addiction include medication assisted treatment, group and individual counseling, substance use recovery education, family therapy, skill development groups, relapse prevention skills, and lifetime aftercare group counseling. It’s great that there are separate outpatient programs for men and women, which are tailored to the unique challenges faced by each gender in recovery.
DUI services are also available at Janus of Santa Cruz, which includes an innovative approach called Interactive Journaling, which uses a cognitive behavioral approach to promote changes in behavior.
