Inpatient treatment options include detoxification and residential treatment programs. These programs allow for medical oversight and management when dealing with withdrawal symptoms, cravings, and other serious effects from addiction.

Once inpatient or residential rehab is complete, it’s common for a client to transition into an outpatient program. This provides further treatment while allowing clients to return to normal activities, such as going to school or returning to work.

Why does Valley Recovery Center use gender-specific treatment?+

Gender-specific treatment is important for treating men because it offers a safe and judgment-free place for those needing addiction and mental health care. Many men need more time to open up about their emotions, or even admit that they need help at all. This is especially the case with young adult men, who often battle stigma and internalized shame before seeking treatment.

Young or old, addiction can affect men at any time and any place. Our men-focused drug rehabilitation center in Santa Clarita is equipped to meet the physiological, psychological, and emotional needs of our clients. Thus, helping men find local, compassionate, and quality addiction treatment.

  • Opiate/opioid addiction
  • Stimulant addiction
  • Alcohol addiction
  • Methamphetamine (meth) addiction
  • Hallucinogen addiction
Can my addiction be cured?+

Addiction is not something that can be “cured.” However, it is a treatable and manageable condition. It requires hard work, a personal desire to change, and professional help, but addiction recovery is possible for anyone.

You don’t need to have it figured out before you call.

Our admissions team is ready to answer questions, verify your insurance, or just talk through what treatment could look like — for you, or for someone you love.
