Sanctuary Centers

About Sanctuary Centers – Santa Barbara, California

Sanctuary Centers is a nonprofit mental health and substance abuse treatment facility. They provide a full continuum of care across inpatient (IP), outpatient (OP), and supportive living programs. They combine treatment with education and training groups to help clients lead fulfilling, independent lives. You’ll find ’em out in Santa Barbara, California.

The inpatient residence is a Victorian home with 12 beds. This intimate setting ensures that clients develop a sense of community and receive undivided attention from staff, who are present 24 hours a day to help as needed. Personalized treatment plans may include assessments, individual therapy, group therapy, vocational support, case management, family support programs, life skills development, and recreation and social development.

The outpatient program allows clients to receive treatment on a flexible schedule while continuing to live at home, work, and attend school. Treatment in the outpatient program is very similar to the inpatient program but happens in a less structured environment and includes a focus on dialectical behavioral therapy.

Those living with drug and alcohol addiction commonly have additional behavioral health concerns such as depression. Co-occurring treatment addresses these problems alongside the substance use disorder diagnosis, lowering the chance of relapse.

The supportive housing program provides permanent affordable housing in private studio apartments. These homes come with case management services and access to ongoing outpatient care and in-home services.

The aftercare program includes three months of satellite programs and in-home support services.

Sanctuary Centers is a private-pay facility that provides insurance billing services. Clients are advised to confirm coverage before enrolling in any treatment program, as out of network benefits may vary.
