A Full Continuum of Care
Mountain Springs Recovery provides a seamless continuum of care, from initial detox to long-term aftercare. Each program is tailored to the individual, ensuring clients receive the appropriate level of support at every stage of their journey in a personalized, non-12-step friendly environment.
Program Length: 5-10 Days (Average)
The first step for many, our on-site medical detox program provides 24/7 nursing care and physician oversight. We use Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) to manage withdrawal symptoms comfortably, ensuring a safe and stable transition into residential care.
Program Length: 30, 60, or 90 Days
Our residential program offers a deep dive into recovery. Clients live on-site in private rooms and engage in a structured schedule of individual therapy, group sessions, and holistic activities. This immersive model allows for intensive focus on healing without outside distractions.
As a step-down from residential care, our Partial Hospitalization (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient (IOP) programs provide robust clinical support while allowing clients to live at home or in a sober living environment. These programs help individuals practice recovery skills in their daily lives while maintaining a strong connection to treatment.
