About La Ventana Addiction Treatment Programs -Thousand Oaks

La Ventana Treatment Programs provides dual-diagnosis alcohol and drug rehab services, as well as mental health treatment. Programs include medical detox, residential treatment, partial hospitalization, and intensive outpatient programs. La Ventana has a specific affirming residential program for the 2S/LGBTQIA+ community.

The medical detox program offers 24-hour care for clients while they get support from certified medical professionals to help with chemical dependencies. Medications are used to manage the symptoms that can often accompany detoxification. It’s an IMS Designated, ASAM-licensed detox program that includes counseling sessions six days per week.

The residential treatment program provides a comfortable and safe environment for clients to focus on recovery. Participants are supported by trained recovery staff and receive education regarding disease addiction and how to make healthy decisions and form positive relationships.

For partial hospitalization care, clients can live at home or in La Ventana’s recovery housing. Clients receive therapy five days per week, including individual sessions.

The intensive track offers similar services to the day program but meets less frequently. After treatment ends, La Ventana offers aftercare services to help clients maintain long-term stability and sobriety.

Levels of Care

Outpatient

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.

Intensive 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. Westlake Village hosts an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) with day and evening tracks to accommodate a variety of schedules and treatment needs. Free support groups, alumni groups, and other educational in-services are available to the community.

Partial Hospitalization Program

A partial hospitalization program (PHP) is a short-term form of intensive rehab, usually for those with acute symptoms that are hard to manage but don’t require 24-hour care. PHPs have structured programming (i.e. individual and/or group therapy), and usually meet 3-5 days a week for around 6 hours (i.e. 9am-3m). Some PHPs are residential (patients sleep on site) and some are not, so patients sleep at home. PHPs can last from 1-6 months, and some offer transportation and meals.

24-Hour Clinical Care

During the first phase of recovery – detox – it is crucial to have 24-hour clinical care in California. This care provides constant monitoring in order to ensure your safely and comfort as you progress through the withdrawal process for drug or alcohol addiction. Licensed professionals prescribe medications to treat withdrawal symptoms and provide frequent monitoring to ensure your safely as addictive toxins leave your system.

Medically 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.

Treatment

Alcoholism

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 Addiction

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.

Dual Diagnosis

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.

Mental Health and Substance Abuse

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 Addiction

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.

Clinical Services

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.

Equine Therapy

Group Therapy

During group therapy, men and women learn to express their emotions openly in a non judgmental setting. This helps you process your feelings and reduces feelings of social isolation that are often associated with addiction.

Individual Therapy

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.

Trauma Therapy

Trauma therapy is a structured approach used by therapists to help you heal from a past traumatic event. Your therapist works with you to identify the traumatic memory and process the information so you experience emotional healing and a sense of safety and stability.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma focused therapy in California that uses bilateral stimulation, like eye movements, to help you resolve traumatic memories. This evidence based therapy is widely recognized for its effectiveness in treating post traumatic stress disorder and other traumatic conditions. Following an eight phase protocol this approach helps reduce your emotional stress and fosters healing and resilience.

Family Therapy

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.

Life Skills

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.

Experiential Therapy

The use of experiential therapy can be helpful for the treatment of behavioral disorders, including drug and alcohol addiction. This method teaches you how to release negative emotions and cope with pain from the past. Activities such as art, music, and animal care are used to facilitate this process.

I went here back in 2018, and the older red haired lady that was in charge told me to leave some of my bags when I was heading home. I never got those bags of stuff back, and I am still bothered by this. She is honestly a TERRIBLE human being for doing that, AND the treatment was not very satisfactory while I was a patient here either, I just feel like there are much better programs than this one, and a part of my life was thrown away while coming here.

I m very grateful for this program. It really impacted my life for the better. The therapists are outstanding. The clinical director at the house I stayed at was phenomenal. The RA s were amazing. There were little things that could be tweaked about the program but no program will be perfect. This one was pretty close. I m very happy I came here and got treatment.Thank you everyone at La Ventana

I would not recommend this place . It has been almost a year since I left and now have some time sober so this is coming from a place where I ve had time to reflect on my experience here . There is ALOT to go into but I would like to start off by saying they told me my treatment was covered by insurance . My insurance got cut . My family and I were made unaware and they started billing us . We made NO verbal or written agreement to paying out of pocket. Time goes on and the payment obviously has not been made. Consequently when you don t pay for a service that service is no longer going to be provided, understandable. What s not understandable is NOT being told insurance was cut and we needed to pay out of pocket for me to keep staying there . Well WEEKS pass and they finally alert me and my family of this . We say we aren t paying because we were under the impression my stay was being covered by insurance and that was the only reason I was staying . I had already wanted to leave this place but I stayed because we thought insurance was covering it . My family is all the way out in Georgia and I am not from California nor have any family or friends out there . The owner , who I had met the first time by being CURSED AND YELLED at inappropriately because I opened the wrong door, called my father and said if you don t pay within x amount of hours I m going to put your addict daughter out on the streets of California . Further more while I was in sober living the staff there s actions were just out of pocket . Being accused multiple times of things I ve never done regarding MY PAST and when asked where did you get this information from they would just laugh . Another staff member came over during the night time , who d I never met , while I was on the couch minding my own business and watching tv . Comes over and caused a whole situation yelling at me at about being selfish , making the other girls who I lived with uncomfortable , etc because apparently I didn t ever let anyone else in the sober living watch tv . I had never been informed about this or anything so for a staff member who d never been around or met to just start coming at me at the end of the day like this I felt HIGHLY uncomfortable about her confronting me in this manner around other clients. I tried to meditate the situation by saying sure we can find something we all want to watch but instead she just said give me the remote . This obviously upset me because it was done rudely and her other words were uncalled for because she started saying stuff to personally attack me . The detox is alright and the majority of staff who work on the detox are quite nice. The programming is repetitive but it s alright , I will say I ve been to murmurous treatment centers so my POV could be biased on the repetitive part but it s mainly just staff talking and there s rarely any time for the clients to talk , receive feedback, and ask questions. I could keep going by over all there are PLENTLY of other treatment centers to go to or send your loved one to . I would highly recommend not coming here . I ve never written a review for a treatment center to blast them but for this place I felt the need to speak up .

This review is specifically for Briar Cliff house with Jennifer as clinical director. This is not at will treatment, every week your therapist reaches out to insurance to see how long they can keep you instead of recognizing growth or listening to you. I was administered a medication that made me gain 20 lbs without being told of side effects or being given other options. My families request for other options was completely ignored until the last week i was there (three weeks in) and it randomly appeared on my chart. The catered food is actually random guys dropping food off that is soggy, salty, fattening and disgusting. The psychiatrist you meet with is on zoom and sometimes the clinical director uncomfortably sits in on appointments just to feel productive by being assertive. The clinical director is a bully that projects her issues onto others. You can just look at a photo of her and it s very clear she is not a health focused person given the fact she is obese. The main employees that work here are condescending and it is clear they talk about patients behind their back for personal entertainment. The environment feels catty and is certainly not for healing. They claim to have yoga but it s actually them just putting random youtube videos on in a small living room and giving you mats, they also claim to have equine therapy but it s actually just taking people to go brush dirty horses. During treatment you re expected to find a therapist, psychiatrist, and outpatient care but only given extremely small time increments to do so. I had one room mate who stabbed herself in the face because she was so frustrated with staff, then my next room mate was mentally disabled and staff barely paid attention to her while she clearly was exhibiting destructive behaviors (binge eating, caffeine late in the day, not sleeping, not showering). I highly urge you to not bring a loved one here. They care more about billing insurance than the people in there. They do not care about your life path or well being. The therapists love to hear themselves talk and be in a position to feel superior. Most groups they just hand you random print outs from the internet or books. I m still dealing with losing the weight I gained here and the trauma endured here.

This facility actually cares about their clients and it shows. When they say they treat their clients like family they mean it. Perfectly structured programming and passionate staff. I definitely got the help I needed and I feel like the staff at La Ventana went above and beyond for me and my family. I will forever be grateful to them.

I was called in for a job interview. Did the impossible to get there on time. Waited 30 minutes for my interviewer (outside seating in parking). Then went up to the nursing director that called me to the interview . She informed me that my interviewer left and that they will call me to reschedule and they never did.Very unprofessional.

Outside of the jail/prison breaks (both real and fake) that this place facilitated while being drugged openly and overtly, there were at least an attempt to record some extent as to how traumatic the events were to people. Sadly there were people in public cheering the suicides in public places as if they would become claravoyant or incandescent. Not sure how the research/investigations went since the depressants they were using on my friends who had social anxiety to help died. Mental health is serious, not sure about how faulty memory works for those that were directly involved. At least the serial killer cop was captured after many years using various mental health hospitals and several boarding schools with fake IDs

A few of these 5 star reviews, which brings up the average, were posted by staff or others closely, personally affiliated with the owner/management. That said, this company is a 2 star program at best. They care so much as to make a buck. While I was there, there were many people that have been there multiple times, some more than 5 times. This, I feel, is all I need to say in regards to the program. There are more empathetic and effective programs out there. Go to those ones, not here please from one individual that found help elsewhere to another individual that is struggling.

La Ventana saved my life. I wouldn t be here today if I did not have this treatment program to help me through my journey. I entered La Ventana last year and 2022 on August 3rd. It was for benzo abuse for over 20 years of my life. This is my first time in rehab and I had no idea what to expect. La Ventana is designed to have a successful form of treatment. You start off in detox and then you go to their aftercare programs. I must emphasize that what you put into it you really get out of it. It s going to be some of the hardest work in your life, but the journey is worth coming out on the other side. The facilitators were truly wonderful helping me get a my benzo abuse. They don t hold your hand. They make you comfortable as possible. It truly was the most terrifying experience but it was successful. When I went to the aftercare program, I knew if I didn t have the after care programs I wouldn t be here today. I ve spent the last La Ventana treatment facilities, and they truly did save my life. But, if you don t put in the hard work, you ll keep coming back unsuccessful. If you want a successful journey la Ventana is an absolutely wonderful program. I owe my life to La Ventana, but they gave me the greatest gift possible. They gave me myself back.Six months, sober and winning. Thanks to La Ventana.

They actually cared for my well-being, they were there for me through every single thing I was going through while being in treatment, and everything that I was working on. I learned alot about myself being there and working on my mental health. Also learned alot of good tools. Lovely staff, and and met life long friends that was in the program with me. Also, karaoke day was my fave. The bomb.com..

La Ventana is an amazing place that has a great community that is passionate about recovery. My experience there was very positive and it helped me get clean.
