Recovery Means Life!
"The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."
At The Camp, we know that recovery is more than just stopping an addictive behavior -- it involves creating a new lifestyle filled with fresh insights and living skills. Our treatment philosophy is based on a deep and abiding respect and admiration for the courage it requires to take the first steps in the journey to overcome chemical dependency.
The Camp is renowned and respected for its compassion and treatment approach, emphasizing the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual transformation of the individual. Our peaceful environment (on 25 acres amid the majestic Santa Cruz Mountains) provides a healing, supportive environment with the highest level of confidentiality.
Our comprehensive individualized treatment incorporates medical and mental health services, 12-Step philosophy and principles, the Gorski/CENAPS relapse prevention methodology and a full range of traditional, experiential, and integrative therapies.
Through education, problem solving, individual and group counseling, art and recreational activities, our clients learn how to analyze their personal history and develop the recovery skills needed to break the vicious cycle of chemical dependency.
The Camp is committed to helping build a strong foundation for recovery and relapse prevention that continues for the rest of the individual’s alcohol and drug-free life.
Finally, as a proud member of CRC Health Group, we also embrace CRC’s five core values:
- Respect – for our patients, our employees, and our community
- Integrity – in our dealings with all those whose lives we touch
- Accountability – to our patients and their families, and to our colleagues
