About Sabino Recovery

Sabino Recovery is a mental health and addiction treatment facility in Tucson, Arizona. It’s located on a 140 acre property that provides clients with calming desert and mountain views. Clients can expect to get a personalized treatment plan for recovery after a thorough assessment is completed. The treatment plan begins after a client has successfully completed the detox program. The organization believes in the importance of individual therapy, which is why every client will participate in 50 one on one sessions in 35 days. Patients will also be participating in a small group therapy that doesn’t have more than eight individuals, as well as family therapy sessions.

One service that stands out to me is the number of drug addictions they offer treatment for. Clients can receive treatment for Percocet addiction, fentanyl addiction, benzodiazepine abuse and many other substances. An additional thing I like about this facility is the various therapeutic approaches they use. Beyond common therapeutic approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, staff members also employ expressive art therapy and meditation to help clients with recovery.

This facility also offers many integrative therapies that clients can choose to take advantage of. These integrative therapies include hypnosis, tai chi and many other unique therapeutic activities.

Sabino Recovery has a continuing care program that begins when a client is first admitted. Staff members start developing an aftercare plan that may include intensive outpatient programs and sober living arrangements. Clients can also be a part of lifelong alumni programs, which offer individualized follow ups and weekly group Zoom calls for continual support in maintaining sobriety.

Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient

Many clients who enroll in an outpatient rehab program are exiting intensive inpatient care and no longer require such high-level clinical supervision. Outpatient programs typically follow a step-down structure, with treatment frequency and intensity decreasing as clients progress in their recovery journey. Partial hospitalization (PHP) and intensive outpatient (IOP) levels of care are the most time-intensive and are designed primarily for clients who have just left inpatient treatment or who are at an elevated risk of relapse.

inpatient iconInpatient Rehab

Inpatient rehab is designed primarily for persons in early recovery and those who are exiting detox programs. It's ideal for clients in crisis or at an elevated risk of relapse. Inpatient treatment centers provide housing and meals, allowing clients to focus on their recovery away from distractions and addiction triggers. Clients engage in intensive psychotherapy, and many inpatient programs feature recovery-focused life skills training and/or complementary therapies like meditation, creative arts therapy, and other holistic treatments.

intensive-outpatient iconIntensive 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.

aftercare iconAftercare

Rehab aftercare programs support clients' successful reintegration into their home, workplace, and community. Drug rehab aftercare presumes that recovery requires life-long support. These programs typically offer a wide variety of services customized for the clients' unique and evolving needs. Clients may receive vocational training and career counseling, housing assistance, legal aid, peer coaching, and 12 step program induction, among other services. Clients' case managers often play a lead role in rehab aftercare planning.

sober-living 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.

heart-hands iconIntervention Services

Intervention services helps family or friends of addicts stage an intervention, which is a meeting in which loved ones share their concerns and attempt to get an addict into treatment. Professional intervention specialists can help loved ones organize, gather, and communicate with an addict. They can guide intervention participants in describing the damage the addict's behavior is causing and that outside help is necessary to address the addiction. The ideal outcome of an intervention is for the addict to go to rehab and get the help they need.

24-hour icon24-Hour Clinical Care

The initial phase of recovery treatment typically includes 24-hour clinical care in Arizona. This constant supervision ensures a safe detox process, which helps the individual physically stabilize from substance use. Patients will receive medications to curb withdrawal symptoms and cravings, as well as other necessary medical treatment. This period typically lasts up to a week, then the individual will receive medical clearance to begin inpatient or outpatient rehab.

medically-assisted-detox iconMedically 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.

Shield icon Insurance

Our Policy: Sabino Recovery works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact us to verify your specific insurance provider.

ComPsych

Heart icon Treatment

alcohol 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.

drugs iconDrug Addiction

Drug rehab in Arizona is the process of treating individuals who are dependent on a particular addictive drug. Because addiction is complex, this treatment typically includes a variety of interventions that address the many physical and emotional issues involved.

check iconDual 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 iconMental 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.

opium 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.

Hand holding medical sign icon Clinical Services

inpatient-file iconCognitive 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 iconDialectical 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 iconEquine Therapy

Equine therapy, aka equine-assisted therapy (EAT), is a form of experiential therapy that involves interactions and activities with horses. It does not necessarily involve riding horses, but all activities related to horses, such as feeding, grooming, haltering and leading them. A mental health professional frequently oversees the activities (often in conjunction with a horse professional), and helps patients process their thoughts, feelings, and behavior patterns during and/or after the interaction. Equine assisted therapy is particularly powerful and effective in the treatment of addictions and trauma, as both are marked by detachment from others and a lack of trust in one’s self and one’s environment. Working to build connection with a horse can not only assist residents in re-grounding themselves, but can also offer the hope of forging new and trusting relationships in the world beyond treatment.

intervention iconGroup 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.

mental-health iconIndividual 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.

house-medical iconTrauma Therapy

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.

eye-movement iconEye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing

EMDR is a therapeutic modality originally developed to help process trauma. In an EMDR session, a patient is prompted to undergo eye movements that mimic those of REM sleep. This is accomplished by watching a therapist’s finger move back and forth across, or following a bar of light. The goal is repetitive sets of eye movements that help the brain reprocess memory, which can significantly reduce the intensity of remembered traumatic incidents. Associated memories can heal simultaneously, leaving patients significantly calmer, more stable, and more emotionally relaxed. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a psychotherapy that enables people to heal from the symptoms and emotional distress that result from disturbing life experiences. It is one of the most widely researched and validated methods used today in the treatment of trauma. EMDR is based on the premise that a disturbing experience becomes locked in the brain and stored with the same perceptions that existed at the time of the event.

family iconFamily 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.

Nutrition Therapy

Nutrition therapy helps reduce the discomfort of detox and reduces cravings during drug rehab in Arizona. It helps you navigate nutrition, teaching you how to plan and prepare meals that meet your nutritional needs.

art-brush iconCreative Arts Therapy

Creativity is inherently healing, and can help those in recovery express thoughts or feelings they might not otherwise be able to. Creative arts therapy can include music, poetry/writing, painting, sculpting, dance, theater, sandplay, and more. Unlike traditional art, the final product matters far less than the experience of creation and expression itself.

medical-detox iconExperiential 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.

I went to Sabino Recovery in 2018 and I can't say enough good things. This place helped me work through my trauma and I could not be more grateful. It is hard when you are and in the thick of working through everything but so worth it on the other side!

I was a resident at Sabino in September/October of 2021. Years of trauma and grief (new and old) had finally taken its toll and I was broken. I made the decision to go to Sabino and it was the best decision I ever made. Sabino focuses on your mind, body and soul! It all connects. From the delicious meals, to the integrative therapies, to actual talk therapy, individual and group. From the AMAZING staff and community, to the surrounding beauty of the landscape and mountains. This was my home for 35 days and this is where I finally began to heal. Sabino did for me in 35 days what years of weekly/bi-weekly therapy could not do and I am forever grateful for the MASSIVE foundation they provided that has allowed me to be me again. To anyone needing/wanting to heal, in whatever capacity, you can do it safely and successfully at Sabino.I had to immerse myself completely from the first day, apply myself and be present. I had good days and bad days and it was hard work at times, but every day that passed I felt stronger. The stronger I became, the better I felt and I found myself realizing and then saying, It feels so good to feel good. And once I started feeling good, I wanted to keep feeling good! I left Sabino with valuable tools that I practice and put to use everyday now that I m home. I have value, strength and hope again and I wouldn t trade my time at Sabino for anything. To everyone that played a role in my healing Thank You! Remember, YOU are the greatest project you will ever work on!!!

Sabino offered everything I could've hoped for in order to begin my path of recovery from Complex-PTSD. From individual and group therapies such as Somatic Experiencing, workshops on various subjects including trauma, inner child work, abuse in its different forms, integrative services based on Asian practices equine therapy and brain mapping to name done of what Sabino has to offer. Going there was the very best decision I've made in my lifetime. I have a very good beginning on the path to recovering from my traumas. So grateful!

2.5 years later and I can say without a doubt that going to Sabino was the best decision I ve made. I was ready to heal and didn t know how. At Sabino I learned to hear my own thoughts and use my voice. I am came home a changed person- just genuinely myself for the first time. Life circumstances have been unimaginably hard and I ve continued to face trauma since- but I love myself and take care of myself through it now. I have an inner resiliency that I ll forever thank Sabino for helping me find.Sure, when you re in the thick of it you can focus on things about the staff or the policies that make you angry - and it could be valid. But years later what stands is the work that place gave me space and support to do. I went for healing and they helped me find it.Thank you Sabino

I am not exaggerating when I say Sabino saved my life after an eight-month battle with psychosis and severe suicidal ideation. There is so much love and care pouring out of this place. All staff members are empathetic, engaged, and committed. The "integratives," including massage, somatic experiencing, therapeutic horsemanship, and EMDR are amazing and unique among treatment centers. The trauma-centered, holistic approach is incredibly effective. It doesn't hurt that the facility is in a beautiful space next door to the Sabino Canyon National Forest and the sun is shining almost every day. My life was transformed by this magical place. I owe my current health and happiness in no small part to Sabino and would recommend it to anyone who is struggling with trauma. We got you!

Please know that Sabino will always be a place where you can find support.
