WHAT WE TREAT
Substance Abuse
Safe Harbor Treatment Center began as a vision, a dream that our founder, Velvet Mangan, longed to bring to reality. She poured her heart into creating a space where clients could come from anywhere in the world to recover from their addictions.
At our California substance abuse treatment facility, we understand that past experiences involving addiction can leave a person scared and vulnerable. Because of this, it is imperative that their environment be loving, gentle and supportive. Love and safety are key components in a person’s willingness to look deep within and begin to identify underlying causes of their pain. Recovery is a scary process for most and it cannot be done alone. Individuals require a community where they are accepted and understood in order to access the honesty required to heal.

EVIDENCE-BASED TREATMENT FOR ADDICTION
What to Expect In an Orange County Addiction Treatment Center
Inpatient Drug Rehab
Inpatient addiction rehab centers provide a safe and structured environment for individuals struggling with addiction to receive treatment. Our inpatient addiction rehab center in Orange County, California offers various services, including detoxification, therapy, and counseling, to help individuals overcome their addiction and build the skills and support they need to maintain long-term recovery. Clients are monitored 24/7 by a compassionate team of professionals, ensuring their physical and emotional safety during every phase of recovery. This immersive setting removes external distractions and triggers, allowing individuals to focus entirely on healing.
Holistic Therapies
Once detox is complete, treatment begins. A high-quality treatment program will take a holistic approach to recovery that involves both traditional and complementary therapies. Traditional therapies are generally “talk” therapies and include cognitive-behavioral therapy, family therapy, group therapy, and psychoeducational classes, which are part informational and part psychotherapy. Complementary therapies are experiential in nature and include art therapy, restorative yoga, and mindfulness meditation. This combination of therapies promotes whole-person healing of body, mind, and spirit. According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, holistic treatment offers the best possible outcomes. At Safe Harbor, we recognize that every individual’s path to healing is different, which is why our holistic approach encourages self-expression, emotional balance, and a renewed sense of purpose. These therapies help individuals reconnect with themselves in deeply transformative ways. Behavioral change is a cornerstone of long-term recovery, and our therapists work closely with each client to set realistic goals, track progress, and reinforce positive routines. Over time, clients begin to feel more confident, in control, and hopeful about their future.
Changing Behavior
Through therapy, participants in treatment change dysfunctional thought and behavior patterns and develop new, healthier habits that support a life in recovery. They develop essential coping skills to address relapse triggers like stress and negative emotions, and they address the complex issues that underlie the addiction and that stem from it. They search for purpose and meaning in life and learn how to have fun and relax without needing drugs or alcohol to do it. Treatment helps individuals restore their lives on all fronts, from relationships and finances to physical and mental health. Behavioral change is a cornerstone of long-term recovery, and our therapists work closely with each client to set realistic goals, track progress, and reinforce positive routines. Over time, clients begin to feel more confident, in control, and hopeful about their future.
Aftercare Plan Development
Once drug treatment in Orange County, CA is complete, an aftercare plan is set in place to help people navigate the early months of solo recovery. The aftercare plan will include ongoing therapy, participation in a support group, and other components based on individual needs, such as vocational training or educational assistance. This personalized roadmap is essential for preventing relapse and maintaining momentum after leaving residential care. Our team provides continued guidance and support, helping clients stay connected and grounded as they transition back into everyday life.

Financial Considerations for Drug Rehab
Addiction treatment can be a significant expense, but many rehab centers—including Safe Harbor—aim to make care more accessible by helping individuals explore a variety of funding options:
Credit Card
Using a low- or no-interest credit card may be a short-term option for covering treatment costs. Some individuals choose this method to break up payments over time, though it’s important to consider repayment terms and interest rates after any promotional period ends.
Financing
Some treatment centers partner with financing providers or offer in-house plans that allow patients to pay for care over time. Terms vary by provider and may depend on credit history or financial need.
Scholarships
Certain facilities, including some nonprofits or treatment programs, may offer need-based scholarships to help reduce the cost of care. These are often limited and awarded based on individual circumstances.
Insurance
Depending on your plan, private insurance may cover some or all of the cost of treatment. Policies through the Affordable Care Act typically include substance use disorder coverage. Our team can help verify your benefits and explain what’s covered.
Loans
Personal loans or healthcare-specific financing (through companies like Prosper or CareCredit) are sometimes used to help with upfront costs. These may offer structured repayment terms, but always review the interest rates and conditions before proceeding.
