Alta Mira offers medical detox, a family program, a 90-day comprehensive program, a 30-day core program, and life-long continuing care. Clients receive a full-person approach to addiction rehabilitation. Their highly trained staff address neurobiological, psychological, social, physical and spiritual aspects of addiction.
Alta Mira uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), experiential therapy, and trauma-focused therapies. Client's receive 2 individual therapy sessions each week, plus daily group sessions. A 4-day family program welcomes family members for intensive healing. Educational classes and holistic services focus on the body and mind. Alta Mira also hosts intensive workshops for challenges like trauma, grief, and relationships in recovery.
Alta Mira focuses on intensive, whole-person recovery. To accomplish this, they begin treatment with clinical assessments and evaluations for accurate diagnoses. Their staff of masters or doctoral-level therapists, psychiatrists, and physicians ensure that clients then receive the best treatment for their unique needs. Alta Mira also incorporates multiple paths to recovery, like holistic, evidence-based, spiritual, and experiential treatments.
Alta Mira Recovery is set in a historic San Francisco Bay, with their facility dating back to 1927. Clients can pick between shared or private rooms, and have the option of a private suite with a living area. Alta Mira welcomes pets for clients staying in a private room or suite.
