A place where you see a lot of miracles happening each day, believe me. At Awakenings Staff they offer a complete treatment and take the time to explain things about the program and personalize it for you. It calmed my family, as we were all scared and unsure.
About Awakenings by the Sea
Awakenings by the Sea is a women’s substance abuse treatment center in Seaside, Oregon. Their recovery facility is accredited by the American Society of Addiction Medicine and certified by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities.
They offer inpatient and outpatient treatment services. The treatment center is small by design to be better able to provide customized treatment to each individual who seeks help at their facility. Some of the services available to clients include doctor-assisted Suboxone maintenance, individual counseling and 12 Step meetings. The facility also offers educational workshops and a family program that provides family members with education on addiction.
The residential program at Awakening by the Sea is broken down into three 30 day phases for a total of 90 days of treatment. The first phase provides detox services, which will be the first many patients get started. Patients will be evaluated and monitored by the medical team and licensed counselors to make sure their detox is as safe and comfortable as possible. When clients are medically stable, they move on to dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), where they’ll learn how to change destructive patterns that cause their addiction.
The second phase will be where patients begin putting together an action plan. This can include nutrition counseling to make sure your diet is balanced. Food can help you feel energized and in a better mood so you don’t go back to drugs. In the third phase, clients will have a relapse prevention plan completed and ready to use outside of the facility.
In the aftercare program, patients will be able to receive ongoing support through the weekly online alumni meetings. They’ll also be connected with a mentor who has also overcome challenges with addiction and be encouraged to participate in service in or outside of the treatment center.
Latest Reviews
I highly recommend Awakenings. I stayed for 90 days and got SO much out of it. I learned how to love myself, relapse prevention, what my triggers are, coping skills, dealt with trauma, guilt and shame, what addiction really looks like and means, how to communicate better, skills to help me deal with damage I have done to friends and family. The list goes on. Everyone of the staff members are amazing and you get group processing time daily as well as individual counseling sessions. Walks on the beach, community outings, AA meetings daily. I found a women s only inpatient to be more helpful for me because I felt I could honestly talk about any and all issues that I needed to discuss. With full sister support. I hope to only come back to visit but should I ever need help with alcohol again, this is the place I would choose.

We are grateful to have been part of your journey. We can t wait to hear what is ahead for you!
After Calling 37 different treatment centers, I was led to Awakenings.I had lost my husband from cancer after 36 years together and the grief and pain engulfed me. I relapsed after nine years and two months. It was obvious I was not immune to alcoholism.From the moment I put that first call into this treatment center I was treated with such love, dignity, and respect. Chloe, one of the techs answered the phone and immediately showed me such compassion. He then patched me over to Keith the intake specialist. He was incredibly kind, and had absolutely no condemnation for me.When I walked into the doors, I could just sense there was peace in this treatment center.I cannot say enough about the staff. From the Director, (Tabatha)all the way down to the housekeeping(Jean), The incredible, wise nursing staff (Deb, and several more)and the wonderful cook (Von), each member has this beautiful ability to be gracious, kind, and understanding.Many facilitators, And counselors (Vicki, Robyn, Tabatha, and Marvel) each shed such love, and grace upon our hearts, that it makes the journey that much easier.My counselor in particular (Marvel) had this amazing ability to know which days I needed a little push, and when I needed more compassion than others. She laid out a treatment plan for me that made sense and would help walk me through my journey to sobriety and a healthy life.If you re struggling, and you need help to journey into sobriety, this is the place for you. There is no judgment here. Many of the staff have been through some of the very same things that you might be going through. That gave me such a sense of security to know that they understood me.So no Matter where you are, if you need help to begin your journey to sobriety, health, and a way to learn to love yourself, please, give them a call, you won t regret it!!

Thank you for the kind words! We are thankful for you, and hope we get the chance to serve other women!
My 30 day stay has been wonderful. The counselors and all of the staff including the chef were all so supportive. My drug addiction will always be with me. My counselor developed a plan specifically for me. I learned so much from the process groups. I learned to speak up and share with my sisters. There was truly unconditional love. My counselor was so helpful with my after care. Im sad to leave, but I have another journey to start. Thank you everyone for your support.

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.
MonthlyMedicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges.

Addiction Treatments
Levels of Care
Medically Assisted Detox Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal.
Intensive Outpatient Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) 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.
Inpatient 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.
12-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).
Aftercare Support Aftercare or outpatient treatment at Awakenings by the Sea is a multi-element strategy with various therapeutic approaches to bond all that has been learned while in inpatient treatment. While in inpatient women have been grounded in the principals of recovery, taught the underlying issue of relapse, and created close connections at local AA/NA groups. Although some are ready to return home and begin their new journey, many benefit from continuing their recovery work in the tranquil setting of the spiritual little yellow house by the sea at Awakenings.
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.

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.

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.
Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.
Programs
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.
Program For Women
Rehabs for women provide a safe, nurturing space for female clients to heal. These treatment programs consider the specific obstacles that women can face during recovery and place a special emphasis on mental, social, physical, and reproductive health. They explore how each woman's experience has shaped the trajectory of their substance use, addressing issues such as sexual abuse and past trauma.
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.
Clinical Services
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an advance implementation of psychoanalysis and therapy they are proud to offer at Awakenings by the Sea. Under the care of our Director, Serenna Stone, qualified patients undergo specialized processes to speed the recovery from the pain of addiction. Overwhelming scientific evidence has shown that appropriate candidates can experience the results of years’ psychotherapy in a minimal amount of time. While it is expected that recovery from uncompromising emotional pain should take many month or years, EMDR therapy demonstrations the mind can heal itself.
At the Oregon rehab for women, they believe that alcoholism and chemical dependency is a family disease, and that everyone has the right to recover. They know that families are greatly impacted by the addict’s use and that most families’ often feel confused, frustrated, angry and helpless. The family program helps to alleviate confusion and anxiety by way of promoting healing through identifying how addiction affects families and what family members can do to take care of themselves. Therefore, they believe that families need to be involved and also need to begin the recovery process.
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.
Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.
Nutrition therapy, aka medical nutrition therapy (MNT), is a way of treating physical, emotional, and medical conditions through diet.
