Desert Comprehensive Treatment Center
1330 North Indian Canyon Drive, Palm Springs, CA 92262
Ridgeback Recovery is a specialized rehabilitation center in Palm Springs that provides trauma-informed care for men struggling with sex addiction, pornography addiction, chem-sex addiction, and nonviolent sex-offender behaviors. The program is delivered by licensed clinicians, including therapists who are certified sex addiction therapists (CSAT) and practitioners trained in somatic experiencing (SE). Their goal is to support clients through the process of healing and long-term recovery.
The center offers a structured set of services designed to target different dimensions of compulsive sexual behavior. For many men, the 6-week boot camp is the starting point to build stability and begin recovery work. After completing the boot camp, Ridgeback continues support through telehealth video counseling, recovery coaching, and outpatient treatment so clients can sustain sexual sobriety. For nonviolent sex offenders who are managing legal matters, regardless of whether they are before charges, awaiting adjudication, or returning after incarceration, the center provides a sex offender treatment program (SOTP). This program incorporates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to lower the risk of reoffending by correcting distorted thinking, strengthening empathy, developing self-control skills, and addressing deviant patterns of arousal.
Ridgeback Recovery places strong emphasis on maintaining a secure, encouraging environment for recovery, including firm limits on digital devices to help create accountability and safety. The staff also helps clients coordinate support as they handle legal outcomes. Treatment includes individual and group therapy, educational presentations, 12-step meetings, outdoor activities, and other structured options aimed at helping clients understand the roots and recurring cycles behind harmful sexual behaviors.
