People we help in residential treatment in Sacramento:

Weekly visits do not provide enough support

Outpatient care can leave long gaps between sessions. Those gaps can raise relapse risk. Work stress, family conflict, or access at home can pull you towards substance use. Sleep and eating can also decrease when symptoms rise. In residential care, you live on site and follow a full day plan. You get therapy, skill practice, and staff support across the day.

People with relapse risk

Some people face frequent cravings and increase the dose of substances. It can increase the overdose risk. Residential care lowers access and supports safer choices. We help you practice urge control skills when urges arise. You also build a plan for support after discharge.

Mental health symptoms affect recovery

Anxiety, depression, trauma symptoms, and mood swings can fuel substance use. Sleep loss can worsen focus and patience. Our team supports both substance recovery and mental health care. You work on coping skills in sessions, then use them to control symptoms. We also support medication coordination when you take psychiatric medicines.

Alcohol use disorder

Alcohol use disorder can affect sleep, mood, and decision making. You may use alcohol to manage stress or social pressure. We help you identify what drives drinking in your daily life. You practice coping skills during cravings and conflict. Our team creates a relapse plan tied to your personal triggers and routines.

Opioid use disorder can involve fentanyl, heroin, or pain pills. Cravings can feel urgent and disruptive. We help you identify high risk moments and build safer responses.

You work on urge control skills, stress tools, and recovery support. Our team can also discuss recovery medications if you require further medical support

Some anxiety and sleep medicines can lead to dependence over time. When the dose drops, you may feel panic, shaking, and sleep trouble. Our team supports a slow dose reduction plan when a doctor approves it. You also practice skills to calm anxiety spikes and reduce racing thoughts. We help you build a healthier sleep routine without using benzodiazepine.

Stimulant use disorder can change appetite, sleep, and mood regulation. After stopping, you may feel low energy and restlessness.

You may also face irritability and intense cravings. We help you rebuild a healthy rhythm for meals and sleep. Our team helps you practice methods for impulse control, stress, and relapse prevention.

Polysubstance use involves more than one substance pattern. Alcohol with pain relief pills can raise withdrawal risk. Opioids with stimulants can strain mood and sleep. We review your full use pattern and analyze triggers across each substance type. We build one recovery plan that covers urges and risk with polysubstance use.

Mental health symptoms can drive substance use and relapse risk. Anxiety, depression, trauma symptoms, and mood instability can affect recovery work.

Therapies We Use in Our Residential Treatment Program

green squiggle

Therapy helps you to live a better life once you leave our treatment center. At Sacramento Wellness, we match therapy types to your needs and goals. You practice skills in sessions, then apply them during daily life on campus. Therapy also helps you spot patterns that raise relapse risk and supports healthier choices.

CBT

CBT focuses on the link between thoughts, actions, and outcomes. You learn to spot thought patterns that push use, like all or nothing thinking.

You practice replacing those thoughts with safer, more realistic responses. You also practice planning for high stress moments, so you respond with a skill instead of use.

DBT

DBT helps with emotional regulation and distress tolerance. You practice skills for urges, conflict, and sudden stress. We let you work on mindfulness skills to slow reactions. Our team also helps you practice communication skills for boundaries and repair. These methods support calmer choices during tough moments.

Individual therapy

Individual therapy gives a one to one space for focused work. We set goals based on your needs and timeline. Sessions explore what drives substance use such as conflict, isolation, pain, or loss. The therapy also helps you control hard moments, including urges, anger, and grief.

Group therapy

Group sessions help you learn with others in recovery. You practice speaking up, listening, and sharing feedback. We create a plan for social support and reduce isolation. You also learn problem solving skills through real examples. Groups help you practice new habits with accountability.

Family therapy

Family sessions help repair communication and trust. You and your family learn how addiction affects roles and boundaries. Families also learn what support helps recovery and what support can raise relapse risk. Sessions follow your consent and comfort level. We involve the family after our approval. 

Relapse prevention skills

Relapse prevention focuses on risk planning and daily structure. We identify warning signs and high risk situations. You also practice refusal skills and coping steps for social pressure. These skills support safer choices after discharge.
