About Sanctuary of Transformation
Sanctuary of Transformation was an addiction treatment center in Mission Viejo, California offering substance use disorder care for adults seeking recovery from drug and alcohol addiction.
The program's approach blended clinical, holistic, and spiritual elements through customized care plans which I believe was designed to support whole person healing.
Medical Detox and Inpatient Treatment
Treatment frequently began with detox or medication assisted treatment where withdrawal could be managed using both traditional and holistic methods.
Clients then transitioned into inpatient rehab, where I noted structured therapy and supportive services addressed the underlying drivers of substance use.
Programming integrated evidence based therapies such as CBT and DBT as well as counseling and family therapy with complementary practices like mindfulness, yoga, naturopathy, and nutrition counseling.
Dual diagnosis support was available for clients managing co-occurring mental health conditions alongside 12 step, SMART Recovery, and faith based recovery models.

Levels of Care
When you enter drug rehab in California, detox is the first step towards becoming drug-free. The detox process includes 24/7 monitoring and medical care and may include the use of medications to ease withdrawal symptoms.
Unlike outpatient drug rehab, clients receiving inpatient rehab in California reside at the facility for the duration of the program. The length of stay may range from two weeks to 18 months or more, depending on the client's needs and the program’s design.
When you choose outpatient rehab in California, you will meet with a counselor and attend support group meetings. The focus will be on restructuring attitudes and thoughts to reduce cravings and develop skills to prevent relapse.
