Safe Refuge: Comprehensive Addiction Treatment in Long Beach, CA

Located in the heart of Long Beach, California, Safe Refuge offers a critical resource for individuals seeking recovery from substance use disorders. This established treatment center is dedicated to providing a supportive, structured environment where long-term sobriety is the primary goal. Safe Refuge recognizes that addiction is a complex disease requiring personalized and evidence-based treatment strategies. From the moment clients walk through the doors, they are met with professional care designed to address both the physical and psychological components of dependency.

A Holistic Approach to Recovery

At Safe Refuge, treatment goes beyond simply addressing substance abuse. The center employs a holistic model that integrates various therapeutic modalities to heal the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. This approach is crucial for identifying and treating underlying mental health issues (co-occurring disorders) that often fuel addictive behaviors. By focusing on comprehensive well-being, clients gain the tools necessary not only to stop using but also to build a resilient, fulfilling life in recovery.

Tailored Treatment Services

Understanding that no two paths to addiction are identical, Safe Refuge emphasizes individualized care planning. After a thorough initial assessment, clients are placed into programs that best suit their needs, including both residential and outpatient options. Key components of the treatment regimen include:

  • Individual Counseling: One-on-one therapy sessions with licensed professionals to explore root causes and develop coping mechanisms.
  • Group Therapy: Peer-supported sessions fostering community, accountability, and shared learning.
  • Family Programs: Education and therapy to repair relationships and build a supportive home environment.
  • Life Skills Training: Workshops focused on relapse prevention, vocational skills, and managing daily stress.
  • Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT): When clinically appropriate, MAT is utilized to manage withdrawal symptoms and cravings safely.

The facility at 3115 East 7th Street provides a safe, comfortable setting conducive to introspection and growth. The clinical team at Safe Refuge consists of experienced professionals, including doctors, therapists, and counselors, all committed to guiding clients through the challenging journey of recovery. The ultimate aim is empowering individuals to transition successfully back into their communities with confidence and healthy coping strategies.
