I honestly had high hopes for ABC originally I had been admitted for detox and then would be transferred to Hacienda Valdez-The Ranch after the 8 days in detox. I decided to stay and just a few days before going into treatment from detox I began to get bullied and snarky mean comments made on a constant basis as well as being left out. Mind you the girls house is 12 girls 8 in the main house which is this tiny little two story house and we had to stay in the gate but the men had the entirety of campus to separate if an argument was happening. I brought my concerns to staff constantly and was told that They were working on it from the back end aka doing nothing. For a week and a half I tried and tried to just brush off the comments I finally snapped and screamed at the tech (Veronica I m so sorry that wasn t right of me to do and you re amazing) as well as the girl that I had had issues with that left in the middle of the night the week before and they just let her back in. If you re not from the streets or a violent/prison background then you re an outcast. Because that s definitely why I was. They didn t like that I had family and friends that love me and send me things from back home. Also, the food was ALWAYS spicy. I had completed Hacienda Valdez in 2021 for an 8 year opioid run and have been clean. I went into ABC for a 5 month alcohol bender. If you re a woman that is in a decent standing in life (not on the streets or no criminal background) I would highly recommend NOT going to ABC. They kicked me out saying that I was physically threatening to the staff when the night before the Program Manager Everett said he knows I would never hurt anyone. ABC you treated me unjustly and like a criminal for finally snapping and yelling yes just yelling (even creating space between me and everyone else). Didn t give me one of my medications for night terrors either. I walked in there on my own volition because I wanted a better life. You wouldn t even transfer me to a new facility you just dropped me off at the admission building right on Indio Blvd where there s drugs around every corner. Good job! You severely let someone down who could have been a massive success story for you.

Other Forms of Payment

Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient
Clients receiving treatment at an outpatient rehab typically do not require hospitalization or intensive supervision and support. Outpatient addiction counseling and recovery education are often offered during the morning, evening, night, and weekend, allowing clients to tailor treatment to their own schedule. Partial hospitalization (PHP) and intensive outpatient (IOP) programs are the most time-intensive and are designed for clients who are at an increased relapse risk and/or who need more robust therapeutic support.
inpatient iconInpatient
Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements. Primary care at ABC recovery center is a 30 to 90-day intensive residential treatment program that immerses the patient in the recovery process. Patients live in one of the ABC Recovery residential facilities throughout this time. Primary care lays a strong foundation that prepares patients to achieve and maintain ongoing sobriety and to meet the challenges they will face when they have completed this program and return to the world outside treatment.
intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient
Intensive Outpatient programs are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs. ABC Recovery Center’s Outpatient program is four months long and meets three to five nights a week. The program is based on the highly researched Matrix Model curriculum. The program involves group and individual counseling, video lectures, family participation groups and relapse prevention. All groups and individual sessions are run by certified addiction counselors or licensed therapists. Groups and caseloads are small in size allowing for very personalized care.
aftercare iconAftercare Support
Rehab aftercare programs offer clients in addiction recovery a robust continuum of care after clients have completed active treatment. These services address recovery as a life-long process and are designed to evolve with clients' changing needs. Clients may partner with their case managers and/or addiction recovery team to identify the rehab aftercare services that are right for them. They may receive career counseling, housing assistance, peer coaching, 12 step program induction, among many other services.
12-step icon12-Step
12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).
sober-living iconSober Living Homes
ABC Recovery Center - Biskra Street provides sober living facilities for men, women and women with infants when they have completed their program and are leaving a residential treatment facility. Residents are provided a safe environment while they pursue new employment opportunities and start educational programs that will bolster their successful transition back to their community. ABC Recovery Center provides sober living facilities for men, women and women with infants when they have completed their program and are leaving a residential treatment facility.

partial-hospitalization iconPartial Hospitalization Program
Commonly known as "day treatment," a partial hospitalization program (PHP) is an intensive form of outpatient treatment where clients meet during the day and return home in the evening. PHP treatment doesn't require 24-hour care and often serves as an alternative to inpatient hospitalization or a step-down after a residential program. With PHP treatment, you can receive daily support for 6 to 8 hours which includes evidence-based therapies and medication management. The cost of PHP treatment typically varies but averages 90 days.
medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox
When addicted, quitting your drug of choice suddenly can be dangerous. That's why experts agree a medically assisted detox is the safest way to remove addictive substances from the body. Usually done in an inpatient setting, your vitals signs and overall well being are consistently monitored and rechecked in order to keep you safe and ensure the detox is successful.

Treatments

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

Drug rehab in California teaches participants constructive ways to stay clean and sober. Treatment revolves around helping individuals stop using the substance they are addicted to and learn healthy habits to avoid relapse.

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Programs

adult-program thumbnail image
Adult Program
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
young-adult-program thumbnail image
Young Adult Program
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.
lgbtq-program thumbnail image
LGBTQ Program
Recovery is most successful when clients feel accepted and validated by their peers and treatment providers. Facilities that offer LGBTQ-inclusive programming are committed to creating a safe space where everyone can grow and recover without fear of judgment or discrimination. They will have dedicated policies in place to create a safe and supportive environment that fosters free expression.

Clinical Services

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

My sister called here to try and get help and said they were extremely rude. I called a few days later after we got her into a hospital to detox finally after getting the run around from every single place we went to looking for help, this was one of the places we called, unfortunately this all happened during Christmas, she was admitted Christmas Day and first thing the next morning we called more places this being one of them. When I told them I was looking for help for my sister the remark it s barley 9 am, already? Was made in the background and just made me feel incredibly hopeless and like no one wanted to actually help us. I ve never had find rehab for someone I don t know what I m doing and reaching out to these places that are meant to help and feeling like they do not even want to be there doesn t exactly instill confidence. This is a super hard time, we d all rather be at home, with our families, enjoying the holiday, but this was when she reached out and asked for help so we re working endlessly to give it to her, it s a very small window of hope and I feel like this placed squashed some of it. Please do better, addicts matter, they are someone s mother, friend, son, Sister, dad, whatever the case, and they should be treated with just as much respect as you d give yours.

No Vape. All the cigarettes you can smoke. I left treatment today, and on my way out I dropped my $160 in a plastic bag in the "HOPE" House. I went back to ask about my cash that I needed to get back home, and OF COURSE, they insisted I put it in my pocket without question. Obviously, once a client leaves the property, that's that, but for a company that is supposed to be about help and recovery they have just proven that they are ready at the drop of a plastic bag to help you learn the lessons of "Life on Life's terms" pretty damn quickly. No fraternizing with the women. You will be removed from the program after they make passive aggressive comments before confronting you about the situation. Your peers are somewhat solid, however this is an antiquated program that prides itself on its founding back in the 60s. Do not come here unless you are prepared to have as a logical response to a simple question be "well recovery isn't for everyone" Thanks again for that condescending remark, Freda. Thanks Tim for getting borderline aggressive with me over asking for my money, or if I dropped it. Guess some habits die hard, even for those in recovery. Enjoy my review.. I'd rather sit in county jail than attend this program.Update**After calling back 5 times, I get the same result, a Hung Up phone call. This place is shady at best, and I hope and sincerely wish for anybody seeking true recovery they take into consideration the reality of the programs and facilities they choose to give their money to and participate in. ABC recovery center would have gotten 0 Stars from me, if it was an option.

I was dying from Congestive heart failure and was done using drugs. My family admitted me to this humble little recovery house on November 4, 2006. I was under the tutelage of the stern but caring Danny Leahy. Danny knew I was homeless and broke, yet he gave me a free 90-day treatment plan, including a two month stay in Sober Living. I m forever thankful for this place, for it successfully did what Betty Ford Center failed to accomplish.
