Casa Serena Treatment Programs for Women

About Casa Serena Treatment Programs for Women – Santa Barbara, California

Casa Serena Treatment Programs for Women is a drug and alcohol rehab facility located in Santa Barbara, California. They offer inpatient and outpatient services for women who have substance use disorders. They also treat women who have been diagnosed with both a substance use disorder and a mental health issue at the same time.

Clients in medical detox are assisted through the detoxification process by trained medical staff, who help them manage withdrawal symptoms while ensuring their comfort and preparing them for the next steps of treatment.

Inpatient treatment provides a secure and structured living environment, 24-hour care, and a supportive setting where clients stay for the length of the program. Clients receive personalized care to meet their needs, which may include individual counseling, case management, and group therapy. Therapeutic methods include dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), trauma informed therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), Somatic Experiencing, fitness groups, yoga therapy, and nutritional support.

Outpatient treatment is a low-intensity level of care and usually occurs at the end of a treatment plan. Clients live at home and meet at the facility to receive treatment on a flexible schedule. Outpatient treatment gives clients a place to practice their coping skills and prepare for post-treatment sober living.

Casa Serena Treatment Programs for Women has a lifetime aftercare alumni program, which includes weekly alumni meetings and special events.

Sober living homes are ideal for clients who have completed treatment but aren’t ready to return to their previous environments. Clients live in a shared residence and may continue receiving inpatient or outpatient treatment if desired. Clients must follow set rules to maintain residence, but these homes otherwise have little structure, allowing clients to practice balancing their daily lives and responsibilities with recovery.

Clients with drug and alcohol addictions often have a co-occurring mental health issue, such as bipolar disorder or anxiety. Casa Serena’s care team identifies such disorders and develops unique treatment plans to treat co-occurring disorders and reduce the risk of relapse.

Casa Serena Treatment Programs for Women works with most major insurance plans, including Cigna, Anthem, Aetna, Optum, and BlueShield of California. Clients should always confirm coverage with their insurance provider, as out of network benefits may vary.
