Dana Point Drug Rehab
Although we take addiction treatment very seriously and do our part to hold our clients accountable, we also have a lot of fun here at Laguna Shores. We do everything in our power to make our clients comfortable throughout their stay and provide them with positive, memorable experiences to look back on in recovery. To achieve this, we offer experiential therapy that incorporates equine therapy, adventures, art classes, yoga sessions, and mindfulness. We know the importance of partaking in sober activities after treatment, so we will try to expose our clients to as many as possible while in our care.
What to Expect During Treatment at Laguna Shores Recovery
Detox
Residential Rehab
Detox may treat the physical effects of recovery from drug or substance addiction, but residential treatment is the ideal environment to address any psychological effects like cravings, poor coping mechanisms, and unhealthy boundaries. We will also utilize dual-diagnosis treatment during this time because we believe you cannot treat addiction without treating the co-occurring mental disorders that may have influenced them.
The average stay at our Mission Viejo facility is usually 30 days. Residential treatment is where you have the opportunity to understand your addiction and triggers, learn new coping methods and activities, meet new people with similar backgrounds, and begin to heal for lasting recovery.
Benefits of Residential Rehab
During your stay at Laguna Shores Recovery, you will have scheduled daily activities to adhere to. The only exception to this schedule is during detox. Once this phase is completed, our staff will do their part to keep you accountable. Having structure — such as being in bed on time or attending meetings — can be beneficial in the early stages of recovery. Laguna Shores offers a stable environment with people that genuinely care about your achievements at every stage.
Our licensed psychiatrist, therapist, and caseworker will meet with you throughout the week to tune into your emotions, challenges, and how they can help. Even if you don’t have a scheduled appointment with them, we operate an open-door policy. This means you can receive instant help for cravings, doubts, questions, and the effects of a co-occurring disorder. Care is provided 24/7 in a non-hospital setting; that’s why it is called residential rehab. Our facilities are designed for you to live in and feel as much at home as possible.
During support group meetings, you will be able to listen to stories from other clients with similar experiences, see how they overcame them, and offer support as well. As you get more comfortable, you can also share stories — both triumphs and trials — and receive support and comfort from a group of people who understand what you are going through.
Through support groups and time spent around our staff, you can make lasting friendships that will extend beyond graduating from our program. We know that returning home following treatment can be intimidating, as you may not have a stable support group. We will be the foundation for your recovery.
Even though the average length of stay at Laguna Shores Residential Rehab is 30 days, we will ensure you are as prepared to return to the real world as possible. Laguna Shores Recovery offers life skills courses about how to build a daily schedule of chores and self-care. Following recovery, returning home can be stressful trying to maintain a schedule and structure. We try to ease some of that stress by teaching you how to balance a checkbook, pay bills, follow recipes, and make your own schedule.
Residential rehab is an immersive form of addiction treatment that requires a person to stay in a facility to receive around-the-clock care from professionals for addiction and co-occurring disorders. At Laguna Shores Recovery, our clients receive individualized treatment centered around their needs. Call us today to learn more about our facility and treatment plans at (954) 237-7730.
