Dedicated treatment programs are provided for adults 18 and over and for seniors. Court ordered treatment is available for those referred from the judicial system.

Modalities like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and trauma therapy are explored through individual, group, and family counseling. They also offer case management and integrated primary care services. Vocational rehabilitation and housing assistance are available as is coordination with probation agencies. I like that they have a suicide prevention program, as well as psychiatric emergency services such as walk in and offsite mobile services.

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.

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.

Women’s rehab in California provides a safe environment where women can work through addiction challenges surrounded by their gender peers. This often creates an environment that is more conducive to recovery.

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.

Seniors face unique challenges that may contribute to substance use disorder and co-occurring disorders. Elderly rehab in California is designed to address these challenges to provide relevant and safe treatment for seniors.

Levels of Care

Outpatient Rehab

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. The length of time in outpatient rehab varies by individual, based on their recovery needs.

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.
