We offer wellness time that supports focus and routine. You can take part in creative, journaling, or movement sessions. At our residential treatment center we give you shared rooms to connect and quiet areas to rest. We also protect your privacy under HIPAA rules.

Our team also provides private counseling and peer groups. We use CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing, trauma focused counseling, and MAT when needed. A case manager helps you plan care for the weeks after you leave.

How We Move From Detox to Inpatient Care

Detox comes first, so your body can stabilize in a safe space. Staff monitors withdrawal symptoms and checks vital signs during detox care. Once symptoms ease, inpatient care starts with a daily routine and therapy support. Our care team uses detox notes to build the next care steps. At Sacramento Wellness our goal is to focus on safety, structure, and skill building.

How We Move From Detox to Inpatient Care

This is how we move from detox to inpatient care:

  • Symptom trend check: Staff reviews sleep, appetite, hydration, and withdrawal changes.
  • Safety screening: Seizure risk, severe anxiety, and medical concerns arise first.
  • Medication review: A medical professional checks current meds and adjusts doses when needed.
  • Mental health check: Depression, trauma symptoms, and mood swings get added to your care plan.
  • Inpatient intake meeting: You meet your counselor, set goals, and review program rules.
  • Day one schedule starts: Groups, one to one sessions, workshops, and wellness time begin.

What We Treat in Our Inpatient Program

Our inpatient program supports recovery from alcohol and many drug patterns. Sacramento Wellness treats withdrawal risks, cravings, and relapse cycles inside a medically supervised center. Our program also covers mental health symptoms that link with substance use.

Each plan starts after a full intake review. The medical team set goals, track progress, and plan next steps.

Alcohol Use Disorder

Alcohol use disorder affects sleep, mood, and daily responsibilities. You may drink more heavily and feel sick when you stop drinking. Our inpatient program team supports withdrawal care, daily therapy, and skill work. We also build a plan to control triggers, cravings, and support after discharge. Our team also encourages family sessions to support safer communication when needed.

Heroin, fentanyl, or painkillers can lead to opioid use disorder. Cravings can rise quickly and raise overdose risk.

During our inpatient care, you receive monitoring, therapy, and recovery education each day. We use medication assisted treatment (MAT) to control cravings and withdrawal symptoms when required. Our team plans to step down care before discharge.

Xanax, Valium, and similar sedatives can lead to benzodiazepine dependence. Stopping sudden use can raise seizure risk and severe anxiety. Our medical care team reviews dose history and creates a taper plan while you are in our inpatient care program.

We also provide counseling and group sessions to teach stress relief skills. Staff tracks sleep, appetite, and mental health signs each day.

Cocaine and methamphetamine can drive stimulant use disorder. Some people face long wake periods, agitation, poor eating, and a hard crash. In inpatient care, you follow a routine that supports rest, nutrition, and therapy. Sessions focus on cravings, impulse control, and coping skills for stress. Our team reviews mental health symptoms that rise during early recovery.

Using more than one drug at a time is polysubstance use, sometimes mixed with alcohol. Each mix can raise medical risk and make withdrawal harder to predict.   Our inpatient care program covers every substance, dose pattern, and recent use timeline.

We address cravings, sleep, mood, and safety needs across the use of polysubstance. You practice relapse prevention skills that match your daily life. We also help you with methods to control high risk situations after discharge

Anxiety, depression, PTSD, and bipolar symptoms can occur alongside substance use. Substance use can hide symptoms or make them worse. In inpatient care, you receive therapy that covers both areas and supports healthier coping.

Psychiatric evaluation and medication management can support mood, sleep, and panic symptoms. Our team builds an aftercare plan that includes mental health follow up.

We Care Dual Diagnosis in Inpatient Program

At Sacramento Wellness, dual diagnosis support brings mental health care into inpatient treatment. You may face anxiety, depression, PTSD, panic, or bipolar symptoms during substance recovery. Alcohol and drugs can affect sleep, focus, and mood. Our dual diagnosis inpatient program treats addiction and mental health issues at the same time.

We start with screening and a full review of your history. Therapy targets thoughts, stress responses, and daily coping skills. Psychiatric support reviews medications, side effects, and symptom changes. Daily check-ins track mood, sleep, and safety risks. You leave with follow up steps for outpatient therapy, psychiatry visits, and recovery supports near Sacramento.

We focus on thinking, emotions, and choices that increase the urge of using substances. Therapy also supports sleep, focus, and relationships. Each method fits your goals, risks, and support needs during your stay in our inpatient program.

You also build a short plan for high pressure moments. Sessions include worksheets, checklists, and short skill drills. You track progress week to week.

DBT

DBT focuses on skills for intense emotions and sharp mood swings. We train four skill areas such as present focus, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and relationship skills. Our team teaches steps you can use during conflict or panic. You practice how to set boundaries in real situations.

A counselor helps you plan routines that support sleep, meals, and daily structure. You also map supports for work, court, or family needs.

Group therapy

Group therapy covers topics like accountability, shame, healthy routines, and refusal skills. You also build trust and learn how to ask for early help.

Family therapy

Family therapy helps rebuild trust and improve communication skills. Such therapy sessions include partners, parents, or other close supporters when you want family involvement.

Our therapist keeps the sessions calm, fair, and respectful. We talk about boundaries, support roles, and daily expectations at home. Family sessions can also cover education on addiction and warning signs.

Relapse prevention skills

Relapse prevention skills focus on risk control after inpatient care. We map high risk places, people, and routines linked to past use. Our care team built a plan for weekends, paydays, and social events. The team helps you manage urges, sleep loss, and conflict. We create a call list and a meeting plan for quick help.
