What Makes Us Different

Experienced leadership. Personalized care. A comfortable, private setting.

At Salterra OC Detox, we believe exceptional care starts with personalization, privacy, and compassion. Our intimate six-bed setting allows our team to know each client as an individual and provide the individualized attention they deserve in a peaceful, home-like environment. From admission through detox and continued residential treatment when appropriate, care is guided by each person’s needs, history, symptoms, and recovery goals.

Our leadership brings over 20 years of behavioral health experience and more than a decade of experience operating licensed detox and residential treatment programs in Orange County, California. That experience shapes a program built around ethical care, clear communication, clinical collaboration, and respect for every client and family we serve. We deliver care grounded in integrity, dignity, and compassion.

Our care combines medically supervised subacute detox with individualized addiction therapy and a 12-step focus. During detox and residential treatment, clients work toward understanding their substance use, developing healthier coping skills, and recognizing patterns that can lead to relapse. Individual and group therapy, recovery education, and relapse prevention help prepare clients for continued recovery after leaving treatment.

At Salterra, medication-assisted treatment (MAT) evaluation is part of care for clients with opiate or opioid addiction, including fentanyl and heroin addiction. We integrate MAT into our detox and residential programs, with medical providers determining medication treatment based on each client’s needs. Our team coordinates continued medication care after discharge to help manage cravings and reduce the risk of relapse.

Privacy and discretion are central to everything we do. From your first confidential call through completion of your detox program and transition to the next level of care, you can expect respect, compassion, and professionalism every step of the way.

We understand that entering detox and treatment can feel overwhelming for both clients and their families. Our team is here to provide guidance, answer questions, and make the admissions and treatment process as clear and supportive as possible.

Programs We Offer

Salterra OC Detox & Treatment offers alcohol and drug detox, inpatient addiction treatment and residential rehab in Dana Point, Orange County, California. Our private six-bed program combines medically supervised subacute detox, individualized addiction therapy, and a 12-step focus. Clients can begin with withdrawal care and continue into residential addiction treatment in the same familiar setting, with care tailored to their needs and recovery goals.

We offer a full range of specialized detox services to meet the needs of individuals struggling with substance use, including alcohol, fentanyl, heroin, opioids, cocaine, amphetamines, methamphetamine, benzodiazepines, and other substances. Medication-assisted treatment (MAT), including buprenorphine-based treatment for opioid use disorder, may also be incorporated into individualized care under the direction of a medical provider.

Salterra provides medically supervised subacute detox in a private residential setting, with 24/7 staff care, ongoing withdrawal observation, and medication management overseen by medical providers. Each client’s care is individualized to address withdrawal symptoms, comfort, and stabilization before continuing into addiction treatment.

Addiction and co-occurring mental health concerns are addressed together throughout assessment, detox, and residential treatment. Our clinical team explores how anxiety, depression, trauma, and other emotional concerns relate to each client’s substance use and recovery. Individualized addiction therapy helps clients understand these connections, develop healthier coping skills, and address patterns that can contribute to relapse. Psychiatric evaluation and medication management are coordinated when needed, with referrals to additional care based on each client’s treatment needs.

Our alcohol detox program provides 24/7 support and ongoing observation in a calm, private setting. Care is individualized based on each client’s withdrawal symptoms, history, and needs, with coordination with medical providers throughout the detox process.

Alcohol withdrawal can vary significantly from person to person, which is why each client’s progress is closely observed throughout stabilization. Our team supports clients as symptoms change, helps maintain comfort, and communicates with medical providers regarding ongoing care needs and provider-directed treatment.

In addition to withdrawal support, clients begin building structure early in the recovery process through orientation, therapeutic support, recovery-focused activities, and individualized treatment planning. This allows detox to serve not only as a period of stabilization, but also as the beginning of a more comprehensive recovery plan.

When detox is complete, clients who need continued support may transition into residential treatment, allowing them to continue receiving care in a familiar environment while addressing the underlying issues connected to substance use and preparing for long-term recovery.

Our drug detox program provides 24/7 support and ongoing observation for individuals withdrawing from opioids, fentanyl, heroin, benzodiazepines, prescription medications, cocaine, methamphetamine, and other substances. Care is individualized based on each client’s substance-use history, withdrawal symptoms, overall needs, and provider-directed plan of care.

Because withdrawal can look very different depending on the substance involved, our team closely observes each client throughout the stabilization process and communicates with medical providers regarding symptoms, medications, and changing care needs. This coordinated approach helps support safety, comfort, and continuity throughout detox.

Clients also begin engaging in the recovery process during detox through therapeutic support, education, structured activities, and individualized treatment planning. The goal is not only to help clients stabilize physically, but also to begin identifying the emotional, behavioral, and environmental factors that can contribute to continued substance use.

For clients who need additional support after detox, residential treatment provides the opportunity to continue recovery in a familiar environment with greater structure, therapy, relapse-prevention planning, and preparation for the next level of care.

Salterra’s residential rehab program in Dana Point provides individualized inpatient addiction treatment for adults recovering from alcohol and drug addiction. Through individual and group therapy, a 12-step focus, and relapse prevention, clients address substance use and co-occurring emotional concerns while developing practical skills for recovery. Clients completing detox can continue care in the same private setting with a familiar treatment team.

Each client’s treatment plan is individualized according to their needs, strengths, recovery goals, and progress. Residential care may include individual and group therapy, recovery education, relapse-prevention planning, structured daily activities, and support for developing healthier coping skills and routines.

Our small six-bed setting allows for meaningful interaction with the treatment team and a more personalized experience than is often possible in larger programs. Clients are supported in developing practical tools for managing cravings, triggers, relationships, stress, and other challenges that may affect continued recovery.

As clients progress through residential treatment, our team works with them to prepare for the next stage of care. Discharge and aftercare planning may include referrals for outpatient treatment, therapy, recovery support, sober living, medical follow-up, and other services designed to help maintain the progress established during treatment.

Medication-assisted treatment may be incorporated into care for clients with opioid use disorder when clinically appropriate and ordered by an authorized medical provider. MAT combines FDA-approved medications with counseling, behavioral health services, and ongoing recovery support to help reduce withdrawal symptoms, cravings, and the risk of return to opioid use.

At Salterra OC Detox, MAT is integrated into an individualized treatment plan rather than treated as a stand-alone service. Our team coordinates closely with medical providers throughout treatment to support medication continuity, monitor client progress, and ensure that care remains aligned with each person’s clinical needs and recovery goals.

Depending on the individual and provider recommendations, medications may include buprenorphine-based options such as Suboxone, Subutex, or Sublocade. For clients beginning buprenorphine during detox, the timing and approach are determined by the medical provider based on the client’s opioid use, withdrawal symptoms, and overall clinical presentation.

Clients receiving MAT participate in the same therapeutic and recovery-focused services as other clients, including individualized treatment planning, counseling, relapse-prevention work, education, and preparation for continued care. When ongoing MAT is recommended after discharge, our team helps coordinate continuity with appropriate outpatient medical and behavioral health providers.
