Our programs
A men’s rehab in California, six beds at a time.
Two small homes in Santa Clarita. A full evaluation before anything is decided. Detox and residential care under the same roof, with the same people, so nobody has to start over halfway through.
What treatment here actually looks like
It starts with an evaluation
Medical history, substance use history, mental health, and what life looks like at home and at work. The plan is built from that — not from a template. Admission guidelines →
Thirty days, give or take
A typical stay is 30 days, with length flexible on clinical recommendation. Some men need longer. That decision gets made with you, not to you.
Detox, then residential, same house
Most men start with clinically managed detox with 24-hour on-call medical support and move into residential care without changing buildings or care teams. How detox works here →
Not sure this is the right program?
One honest phone call usually answers it. No pressure, no obligation.
The therapies we run
Everything below happens in-house, as part of one plan — including several modalities most residential programs of this size do not offer.
Core clinical
- Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
- One-on-one sessions with your therapist
- Relapse prevention
- Anger management
Trauma work
- EMDR groups
- Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART)
- Co-occurring depression, anxiety and PTSD treated in the same plan
The rest of the day
- Art therapy, music therapy and yoga
- Medication-assisted treatment where clinically appropriate
- 12-step integration, with meetings every night
Life in the houses
Two homes, six beds each
Newhall and Agua Dulce, private rooms, a minimum of two staff on shift around the clock. The size is deliberate — it is what makes individual attention possible. See the homes →
Structured days
Therapeutic groups, chef-prepared meals, pool and gym time, yoga, and paid weekly outings. Structure is what makes early recovery stick; comfort is what makes it sustainable.
Who it is for
Men 18 and over. Gender-specific by design, because patterns of use, and what men will actually say out loud, differ. Why gender-specific care works →
Come see it before you decide.
Tours are available, and most PPO insurance is accepted. Verification is free and takes minutes.
How admission works
One phone call
We ask what is going on, what you have already tried, and what you are worried about. If we are not the right fit, we say so and point you somewhere better.
Benefits and paperwork
We check your insurance while you are on the phone, and our case managers handle FMLA and leave-of-absence forms, disability claims and employer questions. Coming through an EAP or union? →
Arrival day
A bed, a medical check, and a plan by the end of the first day. What to bring →

Siri Sat Khalsa, MD
Medical Director. Oversees detox protocols, medication decisions and medical safety.
Mayra Bonilla, LVN

Questions people ask us
How long is the program?
A typical residential stay is 30 days, and length is flexible on clinical recommendation. If detox comes first, that is usually five to seven days on the front of it.
Do you take my insurance?
Most PPO plans, yes. Verification is free, takes a few minutes, and commits you to nothing. Check your coverage →
Can I keep my job?
That is the point of the case management. We handle FMLA and leave-of-absence paperwork, disability claims and employer or union communication, with your written authorization and nothing beyond it.
Do you treat mental health too, or just the substance?
Both, in the same plan. Depression, anxiety and trauma are treated alongside substance use rather than referred out. Dual diagnosis →
What happens when I finish?
The aftercare plan is built before you leave — the next level of care, therapy and psychiatry near where you live, and the people you will lean on. Aftercare →
Do I have to detox first?
Only if your body needs it, and the evaluation tells us that. Not everyone does. About detox →
