Align Recovery Centers provides medically supervised ketamine detox in California for adults 18+ struggling with ketamine addiction through integrated treatment for substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions. Our medical detox offers evidence-based, trauma-informed care for opioid use disorder with 24/7 medical support in a family-style setting to foster lasting recovery.
Ketamine Detox Center in Sonoma, CA
Choosing a medically supervised detox is the first step if you’re struggling with a ketamine addiction. Detoxing from ketamine occurs as the body clears ketamine from its system. Ketamine withdrawal can be dangerous and difficult without medical supervision, which is why medical detox is the safest choice. Detoxification addresses physical stabilization short-term, while ongoing treatment addresses the underlying causes of substance abuse and opioid addiction
At Align Recovery, we offer a medically supervised detox for those in need of ketamine withdrawal treatment. Our detox lasts 6—7 days and includes 24/7 nursing and medical oversight to safely manage withdrawal symptoms. We also believe in a therapy-first approach to treatment to address unhealthy patterns, coping mechanisms, and co-occurring mental health conditions, so our clients can smoothly transition into residential treatment when appropriate, although detoxing before residential care is not mandatory.
Safe, Medically Supervised Ketamine Detox
We provide evidence-based addiction treatment in a structured, family-style setting designed to support long-term recovery for our clients’ well-being. Our tranquil 45-bed treatment center is located in a historical stone building on 2+ acres and includes quiet, private areas, a large backyard, a recreation room, and a library.
Our home-like environment and family-focused culture are cornerstones of our philosophy: we treat clients like people, not numbers, and always provide individualized attention and warmth from our caring, compassionate team.

Family Involvement
and Recovery
Education
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.
Recovery Planning Beyond Residential Treatment
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.
Trauma-Informed, Therapy-Forward Care
Treatment focuses on the underlying factors contributing to substance use, including trauma, anxiety, depression, chronic stress, and other co-occurring disorders.
Flexible Recovery Pathways
Clients are introduced to multiple recovery approaches, including 12-Step support, SMART Recovery, and Recovery Dharma, so they can explore what best supports their long-term recovery goals.

Program Highlights of Ketamine Detox in Sonoma
Our comprehensive medical detox for ketamine misuse allows for gradual tapering to monitor the side effects of ketamine during the detox process. We also provide evidence-based therapies and trauma-informed care to treat mental health conditions and offer ongoing support to our clients as they focus on long-term recovery.
Individualized Tapering and
Withdrawal Management
Our medically assisted detox program focuses on withdrawal symptom management for opioids. Detox lasts approximately 6—7 days, with 7 days preferred for both a gradual taper and recovery. In addition to a post-bridge Suboxone induction protocol, common medications used during detoxification as part of medication-assisted treatment include benzodiazepines (eg, lorazepam/Ativan) and Gabapentin.
Our opioid‑specific approach includes an N‑Acetyl L‑Cysteine supplement and Lucemyra (lofexidine), which is administered early to reduce the risk of precipitated withdrawal.
Support for Co-Occurring Disorders During Detox
Our addiction rehab programs are focused on viewing addiction as an expression of co‑occurring mental health issues. We believe in treating the underlying root cause of addiction to prevent relapse and support lasting success for our clients. Our treatment plan includes dual diagnosis to address co-occurring mental health conditions alongside substance use disorder.
Group Therapy and Peer Connection
During detox, clients can count on daily support groups where they find peer support through shared experiences that help them build community throughout recovery and beyond.
Focus on Long-Term Recovery From Day One
With discharge planning beginning in week 1, we offer step‑down options consisting of referrals for placement in sober living (SLE), IOP, PHP, and outpatient programs. As part of our aftercare for life program, clients have access to an assigned counselor, the clients-only app, and continued group therapy, family follow-ups, and alumni events/reunions (including Friendsgiving).
Evidence-Based Therapies & Behavioral Health Support
Clients receive several evidence-based therapies during residential treatment programs, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). CBT helps clients identify harmful thought patterns and develop healthy coping strategies for long-term recovery.
Similarly, DBT addresses emotional dysregulation, self-destructive behaviors, and distorted thinking patterns associated with addiction. In addition, clients have access to trauma-informed group therapy and family-focused therapy, as well as a holistic approach to encourage overall wellness, including meditation, yoga, and Qigong.
What to Expect During Ketamine Detox
Align Recovery Centers’ detox program provides a structured schedule in a family-style setting to support clients’ unique needs as they follow their own path to recovery.
Mornings Focus on Stabilization and Goal Setting
Each morning, clients have breakfast at 8 AM and can expect nursing check-ins, medication monitoring, and preparation for their therapy schedule. They also attend a morning goals group to set a small, achievable daily objective.
Structured Therapy and Clinical Support
Throughout the day, clients take part in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy groups, which include trauma work, psychoeducation, and individual therapy sessions that also focus on the root causes of addiction.
Holistic and Experiential Activities
We treat each client as a whole person—mind, body, and soul. In addition to lunch at 12 pm, clients can attend holistic and expressive arts therapies, including yoga, mindfulness-based CBT, art therapy, music therapy, Qigong, and stress management.
Evenings Focus on Reflection and Connection
Clients can spend their evenings enjoying dinner at 5 pm, plus further processing groups, support meetings, and solo time to reflect on their day and wind down safely.
Take the First Step Toward Recovery
Choosing medical detox for ketamine addiction is a powerful first step toward breaking physical dependence and beginning recovery in a safe, supportive environment. With compassionate care and 24/7 medical supervision, clients can manage withdrawal symptoms and build a strong foundation for lasting healing.
Treatment Options for Ketamine Addiction
We offer medically supported detox, residential drug rehab treatment, and dual diagnosis care for ketamine use disorder and co-occurring mental health conditions.
Medically Assisted Detox
Clients in our 6—7—day medically supervised detox and addiction treatment program receive 24/7 nursing care and medical oversight to safely manage their withdrawal symptoms. Our team of caring medical professionals shows our clients how much they truly care through continued engagement, warmth, and individualized attention.
Transitioning Into Residential Treatment
Though detox is not mandatory before transitioning to residential care, it helps prepare clients for inpatient treatment to address the underlying causes of substance abuse and opioid addiction.
Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)
During detox, our clients can manage their withdrawal symptoms through Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT), which combines the use of medications with evidence-based counseling and behavioral therapies. Common MAT medications include Suboxone, Benzodiazepines (eg, lorazepam/Ativan), and Naltrexone, an opioid receptor blocker that blocks opioid receptors that interact with ketamine pathways.
Other MAT medications can include Gabapentin and Methocarbamol for muscle pain, Hydroxyzine for anxiety, Clonidine for blood pressure, Ondansetron/Zofran for nausea, and an opioid‑specific N‑Acetyl L‑Cysteine supplement and Lucemyra (lofexidine).
Seeking Help for Ketamine Addiction

Signs of Ketamine Dependence
Identifying the signs of ketamine misuse is an important first step to getting help. Ahead is a list of key symptoms associated with ketamine addiction:
- Strong cravings and loss of control, including persistent urges to use and the inability to cut down
- Tolerance, or needing increasingly larger doses for the same effects
- Cognitive/mood problems, such as memory loss, concentration difficulties, anxiety, or depression
- Urinary and pelvic symptoms that include urgency, painful urination, pelvic pain, or incontinence
- Social/functional decline, like neglecting work, school, or family, along with financial or legal problems
Why Early Intervention Matters
Fatal overdoses relating to opioids (including ketamine) account for approximately 75% of all U.S. drug overdose fatalities. They also bring a high risk of relapse, which is why medically assisted detox is considered the safest way to address an addiction to ketamine. Align Recovery is here to help you take that first step and support you through every step of your recovery journey.
If you encounter an individual experiencing a ketamine overdose, call 911 immediately.
