A Program That really cares…

We believe that when it comes to addiction recovery, we had to change the way we approach treatment.

Our Mission

California Recovery Center seeks to create a healing environment where clients feel motivated, supported, and at-home with our boutique style of treatment. Our treatment professionals embody compassion and empathy and practice unconditional, positive regard with the intention of making our clients feel accepted where they are at.

Our goal

Is to help clients discover their underlying causes of addiction and to give them the tools and resources that are essential to living a life in recovery. We invite clients to accept their lives and circumstances as they are, and encourage and empower them to change what they can. We achieve this goal by utilizing an eclectic treatment approach and having therapists who are competent and up to date with cutting-edge treatment approaches.

Recovery from years of substance abuse requires time.

Success is often built on creating new support systems, learning to navigate substance-free in the world and gain a true sense of the possibilities the future holds. An approach that can support the individual and family throughout each stage of the treatment and recovery process is the foundation of our treatment program.

We offer educational groups, process groups, SUD assessments, biopsychosocial-spiritual assessments, treatment planning, relapse prevention planning, discharge planning, and case management.

Combined with our 2:1 client to staff ratio, this allows for individualized management of withdrawal symptoms and fosters an ideal environment to begin formulating a self-directed plan for continued personal recovery.

We take the process of referral seriously and understand the importance of a continuum of care for one’s recovery. So, we have aligned with like-minded professionals in the community and have an excellent referral base.

Our program does not and shall not discriminate based on race, color, creed, gender, gender expression, age, national origin, disability, marital status, sexual orientation, or military status.
