Casa De Milagros is a residential addiction treatment center for women located in San Diego, California. Their programming incorporates a whole person view, and takes into consideration what foundational tools must be in place to succeed post treatment.

Casa De Milagros provides residential treatment services to women.

The residential treatment program at Casa De Milagros is for women who need a high level of structure and support at the beginning of their recovery journey. This program includes a culturally sensitive approach to treatment, considering various backgrounds and beliefs. Individual and group counseling is provided, along with evidence based treatments such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, and various forms of educational classes that highlight common issues surrounding addiction. 12 Step meetings are optional, but available to all who are interested. Casa De Milagros also provides no cost job training and certifications, along with job readiness training. For those who need medications, Medication Assisted Treatment can be provided.

Medication Assisted Treatment provides medications along with comprehensive medical, psychiatric, and behavioral counseling. FDA approved medications are used to support withdrawal from opioid drugs and to help maintain long term abstinence. By combining medication with mental health treatment, a greater chance of success is achieved for long term abstinence.

The 12 Step program is a common recovery model based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a plan for recovery based in a Higher Power. Middle steps include self examination and making amends to those who’ve been hurt by the addiction. The later steps include continuing to take personal inventory while living a life of recovery and supporting others in doing the same.

Additional 12 Step groups include Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) Gamblers Anonymous (GA), to name a few.
