About VARP

Veterans Alcoholic Rehabilitation Program (VARP) is an organization in San Bernardino, California. They have several facilities and programs in the area but this location on North D Street is called the Gibson House for Men, a residential rehab for substance use disorders.

Gender Specific Rehab for Men and Women

Gibson House for Men is a men’s only rehab, but VARP also has the Gibson House for Women. This allows you to have treatment tailored more closely to your experience and to feel safe and heard in your group therapy. They provide intensive programs including education, case management and aftercare planning with a special focus on comprehensive recovery, addressing physical, emotional, and social aspects.

Specialized Services for Veterans

Services here are focused on veterans and their unique recovery needs, with programs tailored to adults including support for re-entry populations. I like that the program offers support for individuals struggling with homelessness, those who are involved in the criminal justice system and at-risk adults.

The residential facility features shared living spaces and group areas for meetings and activities in a safe and supportive environment that fosters recovery and peer support. Their sober living homes are a transitional option after your residential rehab and they offer you a stable and substance-free residence for ongoing support and recovery.

Clients Love the Supportive Atmosphere

Reviews for services at VARP are positive with clients mentioning enjoying a supportive and structured environment. They also highlight the positive impact staff and peer support made on their recovery.

This treatment center is located in close proximity to Perris Hill Park and the local YMCA, offering recreational activities and green spaces. Close to VARP are community centers and employment resources that will support you in reintegration. In addition, the San Bernardino County Museum and other cultural landmarks are accessible to the facility.

Amenities

Private Rehab

Private drug rehab provides a comfortable, secure environment that allows you to focus on doing the work to get your life back on track. Benefits include a higher staff-to-client ratio, increased one-on-one time with therapists and healthcare providers, private rooms for clients, and customized forms of therapy.

Residential Setting

Residential drug rehab provides the comforts of home with the therapeutic support needed to successfully recover. Benefits of an inpatient program include increased safety, a higher success rate, and the time and distance given to focus on recovery. Residential drug rehabs are often the preferred method of treatment, as they can be tailored to meet specific needs, offer focused therapeutic care, and provide the necessary tools to sustain recovery.

Private Rooms

In order to maintain a sense of autonomy, many private rehab facilities offer clients the ability to choose their own private rooms. The privacy and personal space ensure that the recovery process is as comfortable as possible.

Swimming Pool

Swimming increases blood flow to the body and brain, boosts white blood cells, and improves muscle strength, lung capacity, and overall stamina. Drug rehabs with a swimming pool offer physical and mental benefits to complement the recovery process.

Gym

When paired with cognitive-behavioral therapy, exercise can be an effective tool for overcoming addiction. Drug rehabs with a gym offer clients healthy ways to increase energy levels, balance the body’s stress hormone levels, and aid in the brain’s healing process.

Addiction Treatment Programs

Teen & Adolescent Program

Typically, a young adult program in California can guide individuals from detox, through initial treatment, and extends to aftercare. Treatment gives young adults what they need to reset their lives and move to the next stage of life free from addiction.

Adult Program

An adult program in California uses various therapeutic methods to treat a person who is dependent on an addictive substance. Individuals aged 18 and older are eligible for treatment, which focuses on breaking the cycle of addiction and learning how to maintain sober living.

Alcoholism

Alcohol rehab in California provides professional treatment to guide participants through each step of recovery. Programs offer a support system to walk you through challenges and celebrate victories with you, from detox to long-term sobriety.

Men's Rehab

Gender-specific addiction treatment programs may be more effective in treating men because they focus on unique needs of males. Men’s rehab in California is designed to help men process emotions and cope with stress in a judgment-free environment.

Opioid Treatment

For those who are struggling with opioid use disorder, help is available at opioid rehab in California. This complex addiction can be treated through a combination of evidence-based therapies and medication assisted treatment.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

When a person is struggling with addiction, their actions and emotions may not be rational. Cognitive behavioral therapy in California helps individuals understand better why they feel and act certain ways and how those emotions and actions can lead to substance abuse.

Rational Behavior Therapy (RBT)

Therapists often use rational emotive behavioral therapy in California to treat addiction. The ABC (activating event, beliefs, consequences) framework is used to help participants identify irrational beliefs and reframe their thinking in healthier ways.

Levels of Care

Dual Diagnosis & Mental Health

When you have a co-occurring disorder, it is essential to treat both your addiction and the mental health disorder. California dual diagnosis treatment provides this type of multidisciplinary approach, for improved recovery outcomes.

Aftercare & Alumni Program

Community support and relationship-building are key elements of aftercare rehab in California. You’ll receive recovery coaching, social support, and mentors to help you maintain sobriety after completing initial rehab treatment. This support will continue as long as you need it, which could be weeks or more than a year.

Inpatient Rehab

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.

Sober Living

California sober living has been shown to reduce relapse and improve recovery. These programs offer highly-structured living environments for those who desire to remain sober. House rules usually include abstinence from substances, participation in 12-step meetings, and contribution to household responsibilities.
