Comprehensive Addiction Treatment for Adults in California

We provide addiction treatment for adults facing substance use disorder (SUD), such as alcohol addiction, drug addiction, chronic relapse, as well as co-occurring mental health disorders. Located in Sonoma County, California, our treatment programs serve adults 18+ with specialized support for professionals, business owners, and working adults seeking structured, individualized care. Programs include medically supervised detox and residential treatment, with referral support for partial hospitalization programs (PHP), intensive outpatient programs (IOP), sober living, and outpatient treatment as clients transition through recovery.

Our trauma-informed, therapy-forward approach focuses on treating the underlying causes of addiction, not just the symptoms. Clients participate in structured daily programming that includes individual and group therapy, experiential therapies, and holistic wellness services alongside medical and psychiatric support. Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is available when clinically appropriate, and co-occurring mental health conditions are integrated into each individualized treatment plan.

We combine a family-style environment with professional clinical support to help clients build a strong foundation for long-term recovery. With 24/7 nursing during detox, board-certified medical oversight, and personalized care, our team is committed to helping individuals navigate the recovery process.

A Trauma-Informed Addiction Treatment Center Focused on Root Causes

Our rehab in Northern California is located in the Agua Caliente region of Sonoma County. By offering co-occurring treatment for substance abuse and mental health conditions in a calm, family-style setting, our addiction treatment programs focus on behavioral health stabilization, emotional regulation, relapse prevention, and long-term recovery.

Treating addiction without addressing underlying mental health conditions can increase the risk of relapse. Treatment plans combine structured care, behavioral therapy, holistic therapies, and medication-assisted treatment to address the deeper factors contributing to substance use while helping clients build practical coping skills for everyday life.

The most common description from clients of our rehab center is that Align “feels like home,” reflecting the supportive environment we strive to create throughout the recovery.

Why Our Approach to Addiction Treatment Is Different

Align Recovery Centers provides evidence-based addiction treatment in a structured, family-style environment designed to support long-term recovery from substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions.

Recovery often impacts the entire family system. We offer family education, clinician-supported visitation, and couples or family therapy sessions to help strengthen communication and long-term support.

Clients are introduced to multiple recovery approaches, including 12-Step support, SMART Recovery, and Recovery Dharma, enabling them to explore which approach best supports their long-term recovery goals.

With a 45-bed capacity and individualized treatment planning, we emphasize connection, accountability, and personalized attention without positioning ourselves as resort-style or luxury.

Discharge and aftercare planning begin early in treatment to help clients transition into appropriate next steps, including sober living, outpatient treatment, continued therapy, and community-based recovery support.

Treatment focuses on the underlying factors contributing to substance use, including trauma, anxiety, depression, chronic stress, and other co-occurring disorders.

Clients have access to medically supervised detox, residential treatment, medication-assisted treatment, and ongoing clinical support throughout the recovery process.

Programs incorporate evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing, and trauma-focused therapy, alongside experiential approaches such as yoga, art therapy, music therapy, and mindfulness practices.

Medical Detox and Residential Treatment in California

We offer medical detox and residential treatment in Northern California for adults facing substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions. From detox through aftercare, we provide structured, individualized support to help clients build a strong foundation for long-term recovery.

Medically Assisted Detox

Our medically assisted detox program supports safe, supervised withdrawal from drugs or alcohol while helping manage withdrawal symptoms in a clinically monitored setting. With 24/7 nursing oversight and compassionate support throughout the process, clients are guided through detox in a way that prioritizes safety, comfort, and stability.

Without medically supervised detoxification, withdrawal symptoms can increase the risk of relapse, medical complications, and early discharge from treatment.

Residential Treatment Program

Our residential treatment program provides structured, evidence-based mental health treatment for adults. With 24/7 support from a compassionate clinical and medical team, clients participate in individual therapy, group therapy, and experiential and holistic services. Our supportive, structured environment is designed to promote stability, accountability, and long-term recovery.

Continuing Care and Step-Down Planning

Recovery planning begins in the first week of treatment to ensure a clear, supported transition beyond residential care. Our team provides structured aftercare planning and coordination to help clients connect with appropriate next steps in their recovery journey.

Next steps may include referrals and placement support for PHP, IOP, outpatient treatment, and sober living environments when clinically appropriate. Through alumni engagement, family follow-up, and a recovery app, we can maintain connection and accountability after discharge. While Align coordinates these services, some levels of care are provided through trusted external partners as part of a full continuum of recovery support.

Evidence-Based and Holistic Treatment Services

Treatment in our rehab facility is built around evidence-based care that addresses substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions. Our Northern California drug and alcohol rehab supports adults through detox, residential treatment, and coordinated aftercare planning focused on long-term recovery and relapse prevention.

Care is designed to be therapeutically driven, combining behavioral health treatment, trauma-informed therapy, and medication-assisted support when appropriate. Clients participate in a range of treatment modalities and are encouraged to identify the approaches that best support their long-term stability.

Individual and Group Therapy

Each client’s experience with substance use is unique, which is why treatment is individualized and focused on meeting people where they are clinically and emotionally. Our therapists work closely with each client to develop a personalized treatment plan that addresses substance use, co-occurring mental health conditions, and long-term recovery goals.

Therapy includes evidence-based approaches such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), Seeking Safety, motivational interviewing, conscious recovery, trauma-focused therapy, and interpersonal therapy. In addition to individual counseling, group therapy plays a central role in treatment by helping clients build connections, practice communication skills, gain perspective from peers, and reduce isolation during the recovery process.

Holistic and Experiential Therapies

We take a whole-person approach to recovery that integrates evidence-based care with holistic and experiential therapies. Treatment is designed to support emotional healing, nervous system regulation, and overall wellness through a structured combination of clinical support, lifestyle stability, and therapeutic engagement.

Clients participate in a range of experiential and holistic services, including yoga, qigong, art therapy, music therapy, recreation, nutrition and wellness education, and Reiki. These approaches complement traditional therapy by helping clients process emotions, build self-awareness, and develop healthier coping skills that support long-term recovery.

Medication-Assisted Treatment and Psychiatric Support

MAT is integrated into individualized treatment plans when clinically appropriate to support clients through withdrawal, reduce cravings, and stabilize recovery. All medication decisions are guided by psychiatric oversight and coordinated with the broader clinical team to ensure safe, effective, and individualized care.

Clients receive ongoing medication management throughout residential treatment, along with regular psychiatric support to address co-occurring mental health conditions. Before discharge, our team provides transition planning to ensure continuity of care, including coordination with outside providers for continued prescribing and follow-up support when needed.

Our Treatment Center

Program Highlights

Our drug and alcohol treatment program combines clinical structure, medical support, and individualized therapies to provide comprehensive care that supports both stabilization and long-term recovery.

We provide integrated treatment for substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Addiction is often closely linked with unresolved trauma and underlying mental health disorders, which is why care focuses on treating both together to support lasting stability and recovery.

Recovery often involves the entire family system, which is why we provide structured opportunities for education, communication, and healing together. Through weekly family programming and clinician-supported involvement, families gain a clearer understanding of addiction, co-occurring mental health conditions, and how to best support long-term recovery.

Clients are exposed to a range of recovery approaches, including 12-Step support, SMART Recovery, and Recovery Dharma, as well as individualized recovery planning. This allows each person to explore different tools and identify which ones best support their long-term recovery and personal goals.

We provide 24/7 nursing support with psychiatric and addiction medicine oversight to ensure safe, coordinated care throughout treatment. Medication support is integrated with evidence-based therapies and behavioral interventions to address the physical, psychological, and social aspects of substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions.

Treatment Options for Substance Use and Co-Occurring Disorders

We provide a full range of evidence-based treatment options designed to support individuals experiencing substance use disorders (SUDs) alongside co-occurring mental health conditions.

Substance Use Disorders We Treat

We support adults facing a wide range of SUDs, including alcohol addiction, opioid addiction, and stimulant use disorders. Our clinical team provides individualized treatment planning tailored to each client’s needs.

Co-Occurring Mental Health Conditions

We provide integrated care for mental health conditions that commonly occur alongside alcohol and drug abuse, supporting stabilization and improved emotional functioning throughout treatment.

  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • PTSD
  • Chronic stress

We treat these conditions alongside addiction as part of a coordinated, dual diagnosis approach, rather than as a standalone psychiatric hospitalization service.

What to Expect During Residential Treatment

Residential treatment is structured, supportive, and designed to help clients build stability through daily therapy, routine, and clinical care in a safe, supervised environment.

Mornings Focus on Structure and Goal Setting

Mornings in residential treatment are designed to establish structure and set a clear direction for the day. Clients begin with breakfast, followed by a goals group where they identify daily intentions, build accountability, and reinforce consistency in their recovery process.

Afternoons Center on Therapy and Skill Building

Afternoons are focused on clinical work and skill development to support emotional regulation and long-term recovery. Clients participate in CBT and DBT groups, trauma-focused work, experiential therapy, psychoeducation, and stress management skill-building.

Evenings Allow Time for Reflection and Community

Evenings in residential treatment focus on reflection, peer connection, and reinforcing the day’s therapeutic work. Clients participate in processing groups, engage in peer support, and attend on-site or off-site recovery meetings, followed by structured recreation and downtime to promote rest, balance, and integration of skills learned throughout the day.

When to Seek Help for Alcohol or Drug Addiction

It may be time to seek support for alcohol or drug use if substance use is starting to impact daily functioning, relationships, or emotional well-being. Common warning signs include increasing isolation, difficulty maintaining responsibilities at work or home, withdrawal symptoms when not using, escalating use over time, worsening mental health symptoms, and repeated attempts to stop without lasting success. Many individuals also notice growing relationship strain or a sense that substance use is becoming harder to control.

Delaying treatment for substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions can increase the risk of medical complications, relationship instability, and continued relapse cycles. Early intervention can make a meaningful difference, and seeking help sooner often leads to improved recovery outcomes, greater stability, and a stronger overall quality of life.

Family Support and Recovery Education

Family involvement is an important part of the recovery process, especially for family members and loved ones who are impacted by substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions. We provide structured education and support to help families better understand addiction, treatment, and long-term recovery.

Weekly Family
Dynamics Groups

Families participate in weekly virtual groups on Wednesdays focused on education around addiction, dual diagnosis treatment, and the recovery process. These sessions also cover different levels of care, helping families understand how treatment facilities, inpatient treatment, and step-down options work together to support sustained recovery.

Couples and
Family Therapy

Couples and family therapy sessions are available in both virtual and in-person formats and are typically introduced once a client has stabilized in treatment. These sessions help rebuild communication, address relational strain, and support healthier family dynamics during recovery.

Clinician-Supported Family Visits

Weekly Sunday family visits are held on-site with clinician support to help guide communication and maintain a healthy, structured environment. These visits allow family members and loved ones to stay engaged in the recovery process while receiving guidance on how to best support ongoing progress.

A History of Healing

Hope springs eternal. For millennia, the “Springs” region of Sonoma has been a sacred place.

The Native Americans visited the natural hot springs to recover and heal. In 1857, the land became the Agua Caliente Hot Springs, the first resort and spa in Sonoma. People came from all over the country to seek comfort and treatment in the natural warmth of the property.

Today, the center continues its tradition as a beacon of hope and healing for those struggling with addiction. As guests enter the historic building, they are enveloped in a sense of tranquility and peace. The architecture and décor have been carefully preserved to honor its history while providing a modern, comfortable atmosphere for those seeking solace.
