“
I have 1,234 days sober. I was at the Lighthouse for approximately 30 days… I acquired the tools I needed to tackle sober life. Counseling was amazing, fellowship was great, education on disease helped the most. Great place to go, I still do alumni events.

Recovery Story
Kirk’s story speaks to something important about residential treatment: its value can continue long after the stay ends. He left with education, counseling, fellowship, and practical recovery tools that became part of what he used to build sobriety afterward. More than 1,200 days later, his continued alumni connection shows how treatment can become the beginning of a much longer recovery life.
A single day in residential treatment can hold a remarkable amount of forward movement. Every part of the day has a purpose. Therapy challenges old patterns. Recovery education builds understanding. Life skills turn insight into action. Wellness strengthens the body and mind. Peer connection and 12-Step engagement build accountability, belonging, and support.
Day after day, this intentional structure turns recovery concepts into practiced behaviors and healthier ways of living.
Each day is thoughtfully structured around your clinical needs, with a steady rhythm of meaningful recovery work, meals, movement, connection, and time to recharge. The schedule gives every day direction and purpose while creating the consistency needed for new skills, stronger routines, and recovery habits to take root.

For more than 25 years, 25,000+ clients have moved through Lighthouse treatment programs. That depth of experience has taught us exactly what works to give people the strongest possible foundation for lasting recovery.
We have engineered our residential program around that outcome, with every day, every activity, every expectation, and every part of the client experience intentionally built to move recovery forward. As a result, we create recovery success stories every day. Lighthouse is your best option for residential addiction treatment.
A residential addiction treatment program is a live-in level of care that gives you 24-hour structure, supervision, and intensive support for substance use recovery. Your days are built around individual therapy, clinical groups, psychiatric care, recovery education, 12-Step participation, relapse prevention, life skills, and case management.
Living in treatment also creates distance from the people, places, routines, and pressures that can keep pulling you back toward substance use. Recovery becomes your primary focus, with structure and support surrounding you throughout the day.
If staying sober outside treatment keeps breaking down, Admissions can help determine whether residential care is the right next step.
You should consider inpatient addiction treatment when you need more structure and support than outpatient care can provide. This is especially true if you have experienced repeated relapse, are living in a high-risk or unstable environment, have struggled to remain engaged in Outpatient Treatment, or are stepping down from Detox and still need 24-hour support.
You do not need to determine your own level of care before calling. Admissions will learn what is happening, complete the initial screening, and help identify the treatment setting that matches your current needs.
Call Admissions and let us help you figure out what comes next.
Yes, typically. Clients entering the Lighthouse residential program begin with Detox before transitioning into Residential Treatment. This gives our medical and clinical team the opportunity to assess your condition, manage withdrawal when needed, stabilize your health, and begin building the treatment plan that will guide your residential stay.
Once you are medically stable, the transition into residential treatment keeps your recovery moving forward with greater structure, clinical depth, and daily programming.
Call Admissions and we will guide you through detox, residential treatment, and every step that follows.
Residential rehab allows you to live in treatment and make recovery the central focus of your day. You receive 24-hour structure, a highly scheduled treatment environment, consistent peer connection, and support as you practice new behaviors in real time.
PHP and IOP provide structured clinical treatment while you live outside the residential setting and take on more independence.
If your current environment, repeated relapse, or lack of daily structure keeps getting in the way of recovery, residential treatment may give you the time and stability needed to build a stronger foundation. Admissions can help you compare the levels of care and understand where you fit.
Residential treatment at Lighthouse typically lasts 30 to 90 days or longer. Your length of stay is based on medical necessity, clinical progress, treatment goals, relapse risk, co-occurring needs, and how prepared you are for the next stage of recovery.
Some people make significant progress in 30 days. Others need more time to strengthen coping skills, establish recovery routines, build support systems, and prepare for greater independence.
Transition Planning begins early, so your next level of care, housing, recovery support, and practical needs are being addressed while you are still in treatment.
A 30-day residential rehab stay can be the right amount of time for some people. Others benefit from 60, 90, or more days of structured residential treatment.
The goal is to give you enough time to stabilize, engage deeply in treatment, strengthen Relapse Prevention skills, build healthier routines, develop a dependable recovery network, and prepare for the next level of care. Your treatment team reviews your progress throughout the stay and recommends the amount of structure that best matches your needs.
If you are wondering how long you or someone you love may need, Admissions can walk you through the factors that influence treatment length.
Yes. Your family and other important support people are encouraged to participate when their involvement supports your recovery.
Family involvement can include family therapy, education about addiction and relapse, communication and boundary work, transition planning, and approved visitation under program guidelines. The goal is to help the people closest to you understand recovery, strengthen healthier relationship patterns, and become a more effective part of your support system.
Admissions can explain current family involvement and visitation options before you enter treatment.
Yes, many insurance plans include benefits for residential addiction treatment. Lighthouse accepts 30+ commercial insurance plans, accepts Medi-Cal/DMC for eligible services, and offers private-pay options.
Our Admissions team verifies your benefits, reviews the coverage reported by your plan, explains known financial responsibility, and helps identify the clearest financial pathway into care. Coverage is determined by your insurance plan, medical necessity, network status, and authorization requirements.
You do not need to figure this out on your own.
Verify Your Insurance or Call Admissions and we will help you understand what your plan reports before you make a decision.
Your next step is planned long before residential treatment ends. Transition Planning begins early so you can move forward with a clear recovery path instead of facing discharge without direction.
Depending on your progress and clinical needs, you may transition into PHP, IOP, Sober Living, independent living, ongoing therapy or psychiatric care, community recovery meetings, and the Alumni Program.
Case management also addresses practical issues that can affect recovery, including housing, transportation, employment, family support, legal obligations, and connection to outside resources.
The goal is simple: leave residential treatment knowing what comes next and having a plan to keep moving forward.
