A Calm, Supportive Setting for Intensive Recovery
The center provides a peaceful, nature-centered environment designed to support early recovery. The residential campus offers a structured, home-like setting where adults can step away from daily pressures and focus fully on healing. Outdoor spaces, walking paths, and wellness areas on wooded campus create room for reflection, grounding, and connection during treatment. Specialized care is offered for veterans and active-duty military.
Medically Supervised Detox and Residential Care
Longbranch offers medically supervised withdrawal management for alcohol, opioids, benzodiazepines, stimulants, and other substances, with 24/7 medical monitoring. Withdrawal management services are integrated with residential treatment on the same property, allowing for a smoother transition from stabilization into ongoing care. Following detox, clients typically engage in short- or long-term residential programming, depending on their needs, in a supportive environment.
Integrated Treatment for Substance Use and Mental Health
The program is designed for adults with substance use disorders, including those with co-occurring mental health conditions such as anxiety, depression, trauma-related concerns, grief, and stress. Treatment integrates substance use counseling with mental health services so both are addressed at the same time. Evidence-based approaches may include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing, relapse prevention, and trauma-informed counseling.
Medications for Addiction Treatment and Medical Support
Longbranch incorporates medications for addiction treatment (MAT) when appropriate, including options for opioid and alcohol use disorders. These services are coordinated through onsite or contracted medical providers. Medication management is combined with counseling and psychiatric support to promote safety, comfort, and stability during recovery.
Holistic Therapies and Daily Structure
Alongside clinical care, clients participate in holistic and wellness-focused activities that support whole-person recovery. Programming may include yoga, meditation, mindfulness practices, health education, and expressive therapies such as art or music. Group, individual, and family counseling sessions help clients build insight, strengthen relationships, and develop practical coping skills.
Planning for Life After Residential Treatment
Recovery planning continues beyond the residential stay. Longbranch provides discharge planning, aftercare coordination, and ongoing recovery support services to help clients prepare for the next phase of care. This may include referrals to outpatient services, continued therapy, recovery coaching, peer support, and connections to housing or community resources. The goal is to support a stable transition and continued engagement in recovery.
