Sequoia Detox Centers

Place was awesome I did residential. Wish i could give 5 stars but the food was pretty bad its all donated from blessings(they feed the homeless) in return for clients to volunteer, food was nothing like the food on there website or instagram. Most people just ate cereal or junk food and the meals got tossed, they told all the clients there where switching to doordash and jimmy deans in the morning/lunch till they built a kitchen but it never happened so we where all waiting pretty disappointed. The addiction counselor where good but the mental health counselor i was lucky to get 20-30 mins out a session . It nice having your own room only one was shared but there making more rooms shared unfortunately. Nurses where awesome although Ryan was very condescending. Overall very positive experience and comfortable. Learned some good stuff that will help me for life! Update: Forgot to mention the program was very dependent on 12 steps and would bring in and hire ppl that are literally less then 1 year into there recovery journey to act like advocates for a vulnerable population and then indoctrinate them into a approach with pseudoscience and some group facilities would shun you for being on medical assisted treatment, so much so that one client would say there clean date for check in but say im on Suboxone . Pretty messed up when this medication is clinically proven unlike 12 steps to actually save lives. Just because you have a different approach your still valid! To have all your treatments just be marginalized is not very individualized . Also I went in for residential and could barely get my insurance to cover it because i was sober a couple weeks prior and they are know charging my insurance for detox days is CRAZY.(having a detox in a residential facility with wasted people around is also a whole another story when we cant even watch certain shows because there too triggering and they expect us to be in some unrealistic bubble) When i called i wasn't given a straight answer just that will get looked into its been like 2 weeks now. So id watch out for that im really not trying to talk bad about this place(overall it was really good and staff was very caring especially the techs - and they really are trying and making recovery fun they have a van and take you to do fun stuff there alumni group legit ) I just think it s important to know what your gettin into because most likely wont be given much details on your intake call or what to expect overall a lot of clients where coming in confused about certain rules i think a list of what you can and not have would be nice like most facilities do. Because some clients thought you could work on your computer or have your phone etc.

I was sent here for detox as a diabetic needing medical supervion attempting to go cold turkey as I have in the past. This is very dangerous, so the facility I had contacted didn't have room for me. That night I entered the doors of sequoia. I'm crying as I type this because I was terrified and had never detoxed before. Immediately I was greated at 11 pm by staff ushering me to the nurses station and my clean private room. I was instantly comfortable. I agree the food was lack luster but I was here to save my life, not to take a lux vacay. Staff was very attentive and kind! I loved it so much I tried to stay for php. However, it was already agreed I would return to the original facility. Despite the positives of the other place, I had mounting concerns I brought up to staff, management and the owner. Unfortunately, my needs were no longer being met. I accepted a new position in my company less stressful to aviod triggering. This did not sit well with the other facility but I needed to keep my insurance to maintain and prioritize my recovery. Luvky for me the alumi coordinator kept in contact and I attended events, feeling still welcomed! I reached out with my concerns and they accepted me back to continue my iop. Not only that I have many medical appointments with my many medical issues and without a beat they wrre flexible! I can't say how much I appreciate them and can't waiting to keep on my recovery journey with them! My advice when looking for treatment...A. let nothing stop you. B. Ask questions and desperately seek solutions. C. You know you best and if you aren't getting the treatment you need there are other places. For me I found my home from home.

Sequoia offers complete care. Physically, mentally, and through all the chaos of insurance and payment, Sequoia consistently makes recovery possible for all. Sequoia accepts you as you are and helps you get back in touch with your best self.
