About Hotel California by the Sea
For more than 25 years, Hotel California By The Sea has been helping people struggling with alcohol and drug addiction, along with co-occurring mental health conditions. The center recognizes that addiction can look different for men and women, so treatment must be tailored to individual needs, which is why they provide programs designed specifically for each gender.
The center also offers support for young adults, whose expectations and challenges often differ from those of other age groups. In this track, clients learn to recognize and work toward their long-term goals while building self-esteem and confidence. Treatment focuses on addressing trauma and providing practical tools to cope with grief and loss. Because younger clients may develop substance use for different reasons than older individuals, the program is structured to match their experiences.
Hotel California By The Sea is an evidence-based, holistic rehabilitation center located in Newport Beach, California. Services include detox, residential care, and both inpatient and outpatient treatment. Their approach incorporates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), integrative group therapy, and, when appropriate, psychotropic medication to help treat co-occurring disorders. The center is Joint Commission certified and works with most PPO insurance plans.
