About Genesis House Inc – Vallejo
Genesis House is a residential drug and alcohol rehab facility located in Vallejo, California. They offer treatment and housing to adults with substance use or alcohol use disorder. They also treat people who have mental health conditions and struggle with addiction concurrently.
This company was established in 1972. This facility gives its clients a full lifestyle makeover. They teach clients to live a life of complete abstinence from substances including cigarettes. Smoking and vaping are forbidden on the property.
The unique thing about this company is their three step program. In the first phase, you will tell your story while a therapist listens to you. In phase two you will clarify any psychological or social problems that you have, and the therapist will give you coping mechanisms to deal with those issues. Phase three involves putting what you have learned into action.
Where most rehabs offer behavioral therapy, this facility uses Gestalt therapy. This method teaches people to live in the moment and see life circumstances as they are in the present rather than how their past has taught them to see those experiences. They also use role playing and feedback groups.
The average program lasts about nine months, but it will depend on your personal needs. You will be expected to participate in a vocational training program which will include working. Most clients work on the facility’s gardening crew.
