About Covenant Hills Men's Treatment Center
Covenant Hills Treatment Center (Covenant Hills) provides faith-based and traditional treatment tracks for men with addiction and co-occurring mental health conditions. Covenant Hills’ optional faith-based Christian track incorporates biblical teachings and prayer, proven evidence-based therapies, the 12 Steps, individual and group therapy, and relapse prevention therapy. Their traditional non-Christian program uses the 12 Steps and welcomes clients of all backgrounds.
Proven Treatments for Co-Occurring Disorders
Covenant Hills treats addiction and co-occurring mental health conditions in a 60-day residential program, day treatment, intensive outpatient, and an aftercare program. They focus on men’s unique situations and needs, like parenting, vulnerability, and trauma. Men can share and bond without potential pressure or distractions. Covenant Hills provides cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), trauma therapy, pastoral counseling, and family therapy throughout their levels of care.
Gender-Specific Treatment Programs
Covenant Hills’ men’s center in San Clemente welcomes up to 24 men at a time. After an initial assessment, Covenant Hills arranges detox with an affiliated medical facility before clients return for residential treatment. After residential treatment, men can move into day treatment with housing available at Covenant Hills’ Orange County sober living homes. Their intensive outpatient program (IOP) offers 3 hours of clinical and spiritual care Monday-Friday. Clients can live at home or in sober living homes during IOP.
Optional Christian Recovery Track And Thorough Aftercare
Covenant Hills’ Christian recovery track includes daily devotionals, pastoral counseling, and time for prayer and meditation. Clients in all programs can enjoy nutrition and health education, Gorski relapse prevention therapy, experiential activities, and off-site equine therapy led by one of their marriage and family therapists. Covenant Hills’ aftercare offerings include continued anger management groups, anxiety and stress groups, family dynamic groups, and skill-building groups. Alumni meet in regular support groups. Covenant Hills uniquely offers a Recovery Assurance Guarantee, which welcomes clients back for one free week of stabilization and evaluation if they relapse after attending treatment at Covenant Hills.
