Dual Diagnosis Treatment Center in Orange County

Inpatient treatment is the most intensive level of care we offer, providing a safe and structured environment where individuals can fully focus on their recovery. This level of care is ideal for those experiencing severe symptoms or requiring constant medical and therapeutic support. Clients in our inpatient program receive 24/7 monitoring, ensuring that their mental and physical health is prioritized at all times. This immersive setting eliminates external distractions and triggers, providing individuals with the space they need to work through both their mental health and substance use challenges. With access to on-site medical professionals, counselors, and support staff, our inpatient treatment program offers the highest level of care and supervision.

Outpatient treatment is designed for individuals who have made significant progress in their recovery and are transitioning to a more independent lifestyle. It involves regular therapy sessions that fit into the client’s schedule, allowing for continued support while maintaining work, school, or family obligations. Outpatient care is a vital component for long-term recovery, providing ongoing therapy to reinforce coping strategies, address relapse triggers, and ensure emotional well-being. It is also ideal for individuals who are maintaining their sobriety and mental health and require check-ins to ensure they are on the right path.

For individuals who have completed inpatient or PHP care, the Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) offers a flexible option that allows clients to maintain their daily responsibilities while continuing to receive support. IOP typically involves therapy sessions several times a week, allowing for an in-depth focus on both addiction recovery and mental health management. The program includes individual and group therapy, along with psychoeducation to help individuals understand and manage their co-occurring conditions. IOP is a critical step for clients who are ready to step down from more intensive care but still need regular support to maintain their progress and prevent relapse. It offers flexibility without compromising on the quality or intensity of the treatment.

Our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) offers a higher level of care while still allowing clients to return home each evening. PHP is designed for those who need intensive support but are stable enough to manage daily life outside of a residential setting. This program includes daily therapy sessions, medical supervision, and personalized treatment plans that target both the mental health and substance use aspects of dual diagnosis. PHP serves as an ideal bridge between inpatient care and outpatient services, providing individuals with the structure and accountability they need as they transition to a less intensive form of care. It also offers a safe and controlled environment where clients can continue their recovery while staying connected to their community and support network.

Medications are an important part of treating dual diagnosis, particularly for managing the symptoms of mental health disorders. Our psychiatric team conducts thorough evaluations to assess the need for medication, whether for mental health conditions like depression, anxiety, or bipolar disorder, or to manage cravings and withdrawal symptoms from substance use. We take a holistic approach to prescribing medications, carefully balancing their use with other therapeutic modalities. Clients also receive regular monitoring and adjustments to their medication plans to ensure optimal effectiveness. Ongoing psychiatric care is integrated into all levels of treatment, from inpatient to outpatient services, helping individuals achieve long-term stability.

Therapy is an essential component of dual diagnosis treatment. Our counseling services include individual therapy, group therapy, and family therapy to provide a comprehensive approach to healing. Using evidence-based techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Motivational Interviewing (MI), our skilled therapists address the root causes of addiction and mental health issues. Therapy sessions help clients gain insights into their behaviors, develop healthier coping strategies, and work through unresolved trauma. Family therapy is also available to support loved ones in understanding the complexities of dual diagnosis and how they can contribute to the recovery process. Through these various therapy options, we aim to help individuals gain a deeper understanding of themselves and build the emotional resilience needed for lasting recovery.
