Detox California offers several mental health treatment programs at our facility in Dana Point, California. We provide both inpatient and outpatient services.
At Detox California, our luxury mental health facility in Dana Point, Orange County, CA, is uniquely qualified to provide specialized mental health treatment that addresses both primary mental health conditions and co-occurring substance use disorders. While many treatment centers focus solely on addiction, we recognize that mental health challenges require their own dedicated approach, even when substance use is not a factor. Our team of experienced clinicians is trained to treat a broad spectrum of mental health disorders, including anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, PTSD, and more, using evidence-based therapies tailored to each individual’s needs.
We also understand the intricate ways mental health and addiction overlap and diverge. For individuals experiencing both, we offer a comprehensive dual-diagnosis approach that ensures neither condition is treated in isolation. For those struggling solely with mental health concerns, we provide a structured, supportive, and luxurious environment where they can focus entirely on their healing and recovery. Our commitment to compassionate, expert care allows us to help clients regain stability, build resilience, and create a foundation for lasting well-being.
From a scientific perspective, mental health encompasses emotional, psychological, and social well-being, influencing how we think, feel, and behave in daily life. It plays a crucial role in decision-making, stress management, and relationships, and when compromised, it can lead to mental illness, which includes conditions such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia. While mental health exists on a spectrum, it is essential to recognize that mental illness is not just a personal struggle—it is a medical condition that requires expert care and evidence-based treatment.
At Detox California, we understand that treating mental health is paramount to living a fulfilling and balanced life. Left unaddressed, mental health struggles can lead to chronic stress, emotional distress, and even physical health complications. Our expert clinical team has meticulously designed our treatment programs using their extensive knowledge and skill to provide personalized care in a luxury setting. Whether an individual is facing a short-term mental health crisis or managing a lifelong condition, our comprehensive, science-backed approach ensures they receive the highest level of care, setting them on the path to lasting recovery and wellness.
At Detox California, our luxury inpatient mental health program is designed to provide a comprehensive, highly personalized approach to healing. From the moment a client arrives, our world-class clinical team conducts an in-depth assessment process, evaluating their mental health history, current symptoms, medical background, and personal challenges. This detailed evaluation allows us to develop a customized treatment plan tailored to the unique needs of each individual.
Throughout their stay, clients benefit from ongoing monitoring and treatment adjustments, ensuring that their progress aligns with their personalized treatment goals. Our inpatient program incorporates a multidisciplinary approach, combining evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), trauma-informed care, and medication management when necessary.

Recovery from mental health challenges is a journey, not a destination. While there is no strict timeline that applies to everyone, having a general framework provides much-needed hope and structure for individuals seeking healing. At Detox California, we recognize that mental health treatment is highly individualized, and recovery unfolds at a different pace for everyone. Below is a more detailed timeline that outlines the stages of healing and what individuals can generally expect over the months and years ahead.
The first few months of treatment are focused on stabilization, assessment, and the development of coping strategies. This stage is crucial for individuals experiencing severe symptoms such as anxiety, depression, mood swings, or psychosis. During this phase, individuals may still experience intense symptoms, but with expert care and a structured environment, they begin to regain a sense of control and emotional stability.Key components of this phase include:
Comprehensive diagnostic assessment to determine the root causes of mental health struggles.
Medication management (if applicable) to stabilize symptoms.
Individual therapy and group therapy to begin addressing emotional and behavioral patterns.
Psychoeducation to help individuals understand their condition and triggers.
By the 3-6 month mark, individuals often notice significant improvements in their mental well-being. This phase is often challenging yet transformative—individuals may experience setbacks, but they are now equipped with the tools to navigate them.This stage involves:
Deeper therapy work, such as processing past trauma, addressing negative thought patterns, and learning advanced emotional regulation skills.
Behavioral adjustments through therapies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).
Strengthening coping mechanisms to manage stress and triggers more effectively.
Developing healthier lifestyle habits, including sleep hygiene, nutrition, and exercise routines that support mental wellness.
At this point, many individuals feel more stable and self-aware, but ongoing support remains essential. While challenges may still arise, individuals now have a strong foundation to maintain their progress. The focus shifts to reintegration and long-term resilience, including:
Stepping down from inpatient care to outpatient therapy or intensive outpatient programs (IOP).
Building support systems, including family therapy and peer support groups.
Returning to work, school, or daily responsibilities with confidence.
By the one-year mark and beyond, many individuals experience a significant transformation in their mental health. While some individuals may require ongoing therapy and medication, others may find that they can manage their mental health with lifestyle adjustments and periodic support. The key takeaway is that recovery is not about perfection—it’s about progress, self-awareness, and continuous growth. They have developed:
Sustainable coping strategies to navigate stress and life challenges.
Stronger relationships and improved communication skills.
A long-term wellness plan, incorporating therapy, self-care, and ongoing mental health maintenance.
A renewed sense of purpose and identity, leading to a fulfilling and balanced life.
At Detox California, we utilize evidence-based, clinically proven treatment modalities to help individuals achieve lasting mental wellness. Our approach is personalized, integrative, and holistic, ensuring that each client receives the care they need in a luxury setting. Below are four of the core modalities we incorporate into our inpatient mental health program.
DBT is an evidence-based therapy developed to help individuals regulate emotions, tolerate distress, and build healthier relationships. Originally designed for borderline personality disorder (BPD), it is now widely used for depression, anxiety, PTSD, and emotional dysregulation disorders. DBT consists of four key components: mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness, all of which work together to help clients develop long-term coping mechanisms. At Detox California, our clinicians use individual DBT therapy, group sessions, and real-world application exercises to help clients manage overwhelming emotions, break self-destructive cycles, and cultivate healthier thought patterns. By reinforcing structured emotional regulation strategies, DBT is particularly effective for individuals who struggle with impulsivity, self-harm, or intense mood swings.
A trauma-informed approach acknowledges that past trauma—whether from abuse, neglect, combat, or sudden loss—can have a profound impact on mental health, often contributing to conditions like PTSD, depression, anxiety, and dissociation. Our clinicians at Detox California integrate Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Somatic Experiencing, and trauma-sensitive cognitive-behavioral strategies to help clients understand their trauma, identify triggers, and reprocess distressing memories in a safe, controlled manner. Rather than forcing individuals to relive past events, trauma-informed therapy focuses on building safety, emotional resilience, and self-empowerment. Our luxury treatment environment in Dana Point, Orange County ensures that clients feel secure, supported, and in control of their healing journey, reducing the likelihood of re-traumatization.
EMDR therapy is a neurologically based treatment that helps individuals reprocess traumatic memories by engaging in bilateral stimulation, such as guided eye movements, auditory cues, or tapping. This technique allows the brain to reorganize distressing memories, making them less emotionally charged while strengthening cognitive integration. EMDR is particularly effective for individuals with PTSD, severe anxiety, or phobias who struggle with intrusive thoughts and flashbacks. At Detox California, our trained EMDR specialists use this structured method to help clients work through unresolved trauma in a safe and controlled way, leading to significant improvements in emotional stability. Research shows that EMDR can accelerate the natural healing process of the brain, often achieving results in fewer sessions compared to traditional talk therapy.
