Accredited, evidence based, non 12-step approach to treatment utilizing SMART Recovery

Located in two beautiful Northern California locations, the tranquil, very private Santa Cruz mountains and the Lake Tahoe Basin, Elevate Addiction Services® (Elevate) is the perfect place to overcome addiction and face the mental health issues that go alongside drug and alcohol abuse. One property is just outside the prestigious Silicon Valley offering breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean all year long; the other surrounded by the snow capped Sierra Nevada Mountains teeming with wildlife and dense forests. Although we are located in California, over half of our clients are from other states who come to our program based on its reputation and its unique approach to addiction treatment.

This is NOT your typical rehab program. We get results.

Holistic Treatment Center Approach

Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Phases

We take a holistic approach to helping individuals fully detox from all toxic substances, support them with life skills, and assist them with the tools to live substance-free.

Phase 1 – Drug and Alcohol Detox

Medical and non-medical detox is available on site to help clients withdraw from drugs and alcohol safely and appropriately. This individualized detox period involves addiction treatment, massage therapy, aromatherapy and many other forms of comforting care. We ensure each person is fully detoxed from all substances before moving onto the next phase of care – no matter how long it takes.

Phase 2 – Physical Healing

Substance abuse often leaves the body physically and chemically weak. Therefore, one of the keys to recovery is physical fitness and nutritious food. During this phase, clients are given an introduction to proper exercise and healthy eating habits, as well as an introduction to the practice of mindfulness. Mindfulness is a key component to the program and the rest of the program is much more effective when clients are correctly prepared to address their addictive behaviors.

Phase 3 – Emotional Healing

Once the client starts to feel better physically, it’s time to ramp up emotional healing. This is when we offer a deeper mindfulness education. Our counselors use cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy and other modalities to dig into what led to each client’s abuse of substances. All clients also receive one-on-one counseling throughout their program by certified counselors, overseen by our clinical director.

Phase 4 – Aftercare

Each client who graduates our drug and alcohol rehab program leaves with a concrete post-treatment plan. In addition, they also have access to aftercare services such as regular phone calls from their counselor to check up on their successes, difficulties and concerns.
