With a rhythm that supports both healing and rest, daily life here allows clients to focus fully on recovery while rediscovering joy and purpose.

Who We Treat

Unlike clinical detox centers that feel cold or institutional, Ojai Recovery offers a setting designed to soothe, ground, and nurture your nervous system. Here, healing begins with.

Substance use disorders (alcohol, drugs, or polysubstance)

We provide comprehensive care for individuals struggling with alcohol, drugs, or polysubstance use. Our approach addresses both the physical and emotional aspects of addiction, helping clients build a strong foundation for lasting recovery.

Co-occurring mental health issues (depression, anxiety, PTSD, trauma)

Many people face substance use alongside depression, anxiety, PTSD, or trauma. Our integrated treatment supports both conditions simultaneously, promoting true healing and long-term stability.

Relapse after prior treatment attempts

Relapse does not mean failure, t signals the need for renewed support. We help clients process setbacks, strengthen coping skills, and regain confidence in their recovery journey.

Life disruption due to emotional overwhelm or loss of purpose

When life feels unmanageable due to stress, loss of purpose, or emotional challenges, our program offers structure and guidance to restore balance, resilience, and direction.

Burnout, grief, and emotional disconnection

We understand how grief, exhaustion, and disconnection can impact recovery. Through compassionate care, we help clients process difficult emotions and reconnect with themselves and others.

What Makes Our Residential Program Different

Beyond our staff, the environment itself is designed to support nervous system regulation and emotional stability.

Campus-Style Living With a Social Model of Recovery

Unlike traditional facilities that isolate clients in small groups, our campus hosts dozens of residents in a communal, peer-driven environment. You’ll form meaningful connections, learn from others, and rediscover your sense of belonging.

Nature as a Therapeutic Partner

Set in the Ojai Valley’s breathtaking foothills, our setting is more than beautiful, it’s intentional. Daily access to fresh air, trails, gardens, and open skies helps clients ground, reflect, and reconnect with the present moment.

Joy and Adventure Built Into the Process

We believe recovery should feel alive, not institutional. Our program includes outings, creative arts, movement, and real-life experiences that reignite joy and purpose. It’s not just about avoiding relapse, it’s about learning how to live again.

Trauma-Informed, Clinically Excellent Care

Our therapists are licensed, experienced, and deeply compassionate. We use evidence-based modalities such as CBT, DBT, and trauma recovery frameworks to support deep emotional healing, without shame or judgment.

True Integration of Mental Health and Addiction Treatment

Too many programs treat mental health and addiction separately. We don’t. Our integrated care model addresses both simultaneously, because that’s how real healing happens.
