house iconSober Living Homes

Sober Living Houses (SLHs), aka sober homes or halfway houses, are safe, substance-free, supportive living facilities for those recovering from substance abuse. Ideal for those who've just been through inpatient or outpatient treatment, SLHs are supervised environments with rules that support sobriety, such as curfews, shared chores, and therapeutic meetings. Residents are also often trained on life skills and coping skills to make it easier to transition into society. SLHs also provide a strong sense of community that can lead to the kind of deep and lasting connections with other sober individuals that supports a new, healthy lifestyle.

car-building iconOutpatient

Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

book-medical 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).

house-medical iconAftercare Support

Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

Heart icon Treatment

book iconAlcoholism

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.

prescription iconDrug 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.

prescription-bottle-pill iconOpioid 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.

file-medical iconSubstance Abuse

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.

Hand holding medical sign icon Clinical Services

Experiential Therapy

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

Group Therapy

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.

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.

Recreational Therapy

Recreational therapy (aka therapeutic recreation) uses creative and fun activities to help with addiction recovery. Recreational therapists lead patients in entertaining and engaging activities like sports or games; art (drawing, painting, sculpture); drama, music, and dance; and/or community outings (field trips) to improve patients' physical, social, and emotional well-being.

In October it will be 7 years clean and sober. I lived there for over a year starting in 2017. Puente House introduced me to a new way of living, and laid out a clear path to be in the middle of recovery and community. I will forever be thankful for the way things are done there, I really don t know if I would have otherwise had the discipline and discernment to make such a thorough beginning. Many of those women are still my close friends, and the alumni pillars of our community I lean on.

They admitted my son here and kicked him out in 4 days because he wasn t at there level. They took the 800. and didn t want to refund the money. They are a rip off.They lied about kicking him out. My son has a dual diagnosis and they new that. Patrick said he needed highher level of care. They told me to pick him up he couldnt stay. Tom took the money and doesnt want to return it. They are all in on it and probably have done ot to others. so i am taking further action.

Response from the owner3 months ago
We did not kick him out, he left on his own. we tried numerous times to convince him to stay.

We worked with Karl on marketing they did to support the local High School. They were nothing short of great to work with. Wonderful communication throughout the entire process. As a second chance employer, we were very happy to have the opportunity to work with Puente House.

I was referred here, by a social worker. The man who answered the phone - same voice as the recorded voicemail - Asked me if I had an alcohol or drugs problem. I said no - I was simply looking for information. He Rudely said "You are wasting my time!!!" WOW! He then hung up in my face. Yikes! Don't go here.

Response from the owner1 year ago
I remember this conversation. You had called the phone number for immediate attention and emergencies. I asked 3 times how I could help you and what questions I could answer for you. You kept talking about other completely unrelated things. We are busy here and don't have time for nonsense. I told you have a good day and then I hung up. I will once again wish you a good day and now I'm hanging up again. :-)

Said that I couldn't work for the first two weeks trying to keep me from working.

Response from the owner2 years ago
I checked with our office, and apparently you simply made a phone call inquiring about Puente House. I appreciate the feedback that lets me know that our office is properly representing the structure of Puente House. It is indeed our policy to request that when possible the new person not work for the first two weeks. We of course modify that on a case by case basis based upon the individual needs of the person. Good luck to you.

My Brother is currently at Puente House, I fully believe they saved his life, if it wasn't for the support and people who have encouraged him in his journey to sobriety, I'm not sure where he would be today. It is never an easy adjustment or road traveled but definitely worth the hard work. Never give up, there are people willing to help and guide you when you are ready. I would recommend this house for both women and men, I've witnessed several people succeeding in their recovery because of the connections and discipline here.Good luck on your journey.Thank you Puente House!

Response from the owner3 years ago
Thank you Janette. We love your brother.
