Pacific Hills Treatment Center

Pacific Hills bills itself as America’s premier Christian drug and alcohol treatment center. Using Biblical scripture and traditional 12-step program techniques as the foundation for counseling, Pacific Hills Treatment Centers, Inc. offers their patients a spiritual base from which to draw strength. A return to God, coupled with an emphasis on love and compassion, then lays the groundwork for healing to begin. This spirituality effectively allows each patient to maintain dignity while admitting that he or she cannot face the future alone.

The staff at Pacific Hills administers treatment to their patients with attention paid to the root causes and after-effects of their addiction. Generally, men and women experience different reactions to dependency; while men are often heralded for getting help, women can be made to feel shame for lacking self-control. Thus, battling depression and despondency become an additional part of their problem. Focusing on these gender-specific differences as the basis of the programs increases the odds for successful recovery. Men and women are subsequently separated for the duration of their stay so as to maximize the efficacy of learning to live without addiction.

Pacific Hills Treatment Center offers a host of low-cost services to the patient and the patient’s family, including professionals to oversee interventions as well as intensive counseling to help loved ones manage their own emotions. The staff fully recognizes that relapse is possible, so lifetime aftercare options and relapse prevention training are available to both. Also, to make the transition to lifelong sobriety less intimidating, Pacific Hills encourages their patients to take part in the Transitional Care Program conducted in their off-campus facilities.
