ABOUT SOBER SPOT RECOVERY
Located in Laguna Hills, Calif., Sober Spot Recovery offers a holistic approach to helping adults overcome their substance misuse and co-occurring disorders. Sober Spot provides a full continuum of care, including a partial hospitalization program (PHP), traditional outpatient (OP), an intensive outpatient program (IOP), and aftercare.
TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT
After a psychiatric consultation and a medical assessment, patients receive an individualized treatment plan. All programs are based on the 12-step model of recovery, though also focus on resolving trauma through evidence-based therapies, such as eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR). Other evidence-based modalities include dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), psychodynamic therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT).
The holistic program also offers a range of alternative and experiential approaches, including yoga, meditation, massage therapy, acupuncture, SURF model therapy, equine therapy** and sound healing therapy. All clients also participate in weekly family systems groups.
