What Makes Us Different

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

Salina Shuler, MSW, CEO

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.

Salterra is led by Salina Shuler, MSW, Founder, CEO, and Program Director, who 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. Her approach centers on empathy, understanding, and individualized treatment. 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.
