They offer inpatient and outpatient treatment services. The treatment center is small by design to be better able to provide customized treatment to each individual who seeks help at their facility. Some of the services available to clients include doctor-assisted Suboxone maintenance, individual counseling and 12 Step meetings. The facility also offers educational workshops and a family program that provides family members with education on addiction.
The residential program at Awakening by the Sea is broken down into three 30 day phases for a total of 90 days of treatment. The first phase provides detox services, which will be the first many patients get started. Patients will be evaluated and monitored by the medical team and licensed counselors to make sure their detox is as safe and comfortable as possible. When clients are medically stable, they move on to dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), where they’ll learn how to change destructive patterns that cause their addiction.
The second phase will be where patients begin putting together an action plan. This can include nutrition counseling to make sure your diet is balanced. Food can help you feel energized and in a better mood so you don’t go back to drugs. In the third phase, clients will have a relapse prevention plan completed and ready to use outside of the facility.
In the aftercare program, patients will be able to receive ongoing support through the weekly online alumni meetings. They’ll also be connected with a mentor who has also overcome challenges with addiction and be encouraged to participate in service in or outside of the treatment center.
Our Methodology
Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.
Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.
MonthlyMedicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.

Aftercare Support The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.
Drug rehab in Oregon offers a full continuum of care for those struggling with addiction. From detox, to inpatient, to outpatient, to aftercare, Oregon residents can find the support they need for recovery. This treatment empowers individuals to replace drug use with positive alternatives and develop a healthier lifestyle.
Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.
Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an advance implementation of psychoanalysis and therapy they are proud to offer at Awakenings by the Sea. Under the care of our Director, Serenna Stone, qualified patients undergo specialized processes to speed the recovery from the pain of addiction. Overwhelming scientific evidence has shown that appropriate candidates can experience the results of years’ psychotherapy in a minimal amount of time. While it is expected that recovery from uncompromising emotional pain should take many month or years, EMDR therapy demonstrations the mind can heal itself.
At the Oregon rehab for women, they believe that alcoholism and chemical dependency is a family disease, and that everyone has the right to recover. They know that families are greatly impacted by the addict’s use and that most families’ often feel confused, frustrated, angry and helpless. The family program helps to alleviate confusion and anxiety by way of promoting healing through identifying how addiction affects families and what family members can do to take care of themselves. Therefore, they believe that families need to be involved and also need to begin the recovery process.
Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.
In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.
Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.
Nutrition therapy, aka medical nutrition therapy (MNT), is a way of treating physical, emotional, and medical conditions through diet. Specific dietary plans are designed by professional nutritionists or registered dietitians, and patients follow them in order to positively affect their physical and mental health.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in Oregon is a short term talk therapy method used to treat mental and behavioral disorders. Based on client needs, the therapist may recommend five to 20 sessions. Typically, this form of therapy requires fewer sessions than many other types of treatment.
The six main elements of dialectical behavior therapy are designed to help you develop skills for recovery. These are related to: 1. Accepting your circumstances 2. Learning new skills 3. Receiving support 4. Learning positive behavioral responses 5. Changing negative thought patterns 6. Building collaboration skills.

A place where you see a lot of miracles happening each day, believe me. At Awakenings Staff they offer a complete treatment and take the time to explain things about the program and personalize it for you. It calmed my family, as we were all scared and unsure.
This place feels like a scam. I originally enrolled for alcohol and anxiety treatment, but when I went I to check-in, they still had covid protocols in place…in 2025. They tried to deny me a refund, but I called them out for fraud as they didn’t disclose the Covid protocols at time of enrollment and payment. Then they billed me for hundreds of dollars of medications that I didn’t receive or take. Five months later, after trying to dispute the charges repeatedly and getting the “they’ll call you tomorrow ” play, I got turned over to collections. Super glad I didn’t lock myself up with these people. Buyer beware. Added comment after Awakenings By the Sea tried to gaslight me and deflect responsibility in their response. They said they believed the accusations I made were false. Nope .All true. Do not give this program one dollar. They are holding money they owe me and I’ll probably never see that money again. But if my losing money saves one woman from their program. That’s a win. 🏆
Awakenings By The Sea is exactly where I needed to be to be able to grasp the concept of true sobriety. From the minute I walked through the doors it was evident to me that this was a place that served those suffering from addiction. The staff are truly dedicated and I believe "called" to spread the message and help to others. The work was hard but sharing it with other women and recognizing their honesty, strength and willingness made it possible for me to do the work and do it with complete honesty. The AA meeting every morning at the Little Yellow House, Von and Shannon's delicious meals, the beach walks, gym time, bowling and movie time----were just what was needed to help in the beginning of healing. Jean who kept our home so clean and tidy and her wonderful sense of humor and stories.The counselors, nurses, admin., etc. are dedicated to each and every woman who comes through the doors. I am forever grateful for the gift of being able to walk through the doors and be a part of this blessed place. I look forward to seeing my Awakening Sisters in the future. I have been given the tools and healing time I was desperately in need of and I cannot thank them enough.
I strongly recommend Awakenings by the Sea for women’s only inpatient treatment! I went through the program about a year ago and miss it so much! It was a very formative part of my recovery and paved the way to successful sobriety. I wasn’t sure I would like it and there was a small conflict that arose between me and one of the staff members while I was there, but ultimately it all made me stronger. Tabitha is a no nonsense counselor, and she is great at finding potential cracks in your plan for sobriety and offering practical suggestions to surpass obstacles. The extracurricular activities are a big bonus… Like leisurely walks on the beach, weekend outings, in-house yoga and visits to the local gym. Patients also get to attend daily meetings at the Little Yellow House in Seaside, which is a world famous AA center. The community I found at Awakenings has stuck by my side and seen me through the good and the bad. I miss the routines, the dedicated staff, the other women, the powerfully moving group sessions, and the around the clock support for my sobriety. I haven’t needed to go back, but if I did, I would definitely choose Awakenings by the Sea for my recovery journey! 🌊💜💯
Awakenings by the Sea was just what I needed in my time of darkness. The tools, rest and healing saved my life. The staff is professional and empathetic to the needs of women in recovery. I feel as the 30 days of instruction, care digging deep into my value, feeling’s and motivation has gotten me ready to face the future in sobriety. Von cooked the best food ever. Each meal was served with a salad bar. We went to the local AA meeting every morning, which got us ready for a busy, productive day. I got so close to the staff and women at Awakening’s, that it is hard to leave. What a safe, comfortable place to heal.
Awakenings by the Sea is an outstanding inpatient treatment program on the beautiful Oregon coast. If you struggle with addiction and are ready to reach out for help, this is the place to call. They definitely focus primarily on treating substance abuse/addiction, and somewhat address the mental health piece of it. Depending on your individual needs, I would highly recommend Awakenings for so many reasons. If you have made that decision to get help for addiction, please do not hesitate to give them a call and see if it would be the right fit for you. Personally, in all honesty, this place saved my life!
This place is amazing, if you are serious about recovering from drugs/alcohol, this is the place for you!
This was truly a life changing experience .The staff are so knowledgeable and kind .From the minute I walked through the doors I felt cared for and understood. You get so much individual attention and a treatment plan created for your individual needs.The food is excellent as well and the rooms and beds comfortable and cozy.I am so appreciative of my time at awakenings. If you need to get sober this is the ultimate place to do so.
The Awakenings has been one of the best decisions of my life. They are so welcoming, supportive and non judgmental. The fellow women in recovery were inspiring, understanding and just amazing. I don't think there is another Awakenings by the Sea anywhere comparable. It's not clinical at all. You feel so at home. The experience has warmed my heart and given me tools to help me stay focused on my sobriety. I am forever grateful 🙏 ❤️
Deep gratitude to everyone at Awakening. I came here so broken , 14 years of sobriety then my dad passed away and I dove in to the bottle head first, even drinking NyQuil by the bottle towards the end . I knew I was going to die and had to do something so I came to Awakening broken and they put me back together piece by piece and made me whole again. Taught me how to walk through the grief, and be ok and gave me many tools to stay clean and sober. I can’t thank them enough, they gave me my groove back
I am forever grateful to this magical place. I was terrified to go to a “rehab” but the intake staff made me feel more secure in my decision and I’m so glad I walked through those doors. The support from the other women in treatment has truly filled up my heart. All the counselors here are so selfless, caring, and insightful I couldn’t have asked for better support. 🤍 This experience has truly changed my life and I pray that any woman who has struggled with addiction will find this place! Update: And yes, you go to the beach every day! Two years later, I’m still sober and so happy to be a part of the amazing alumni group. Nothing but love for the ladies who run everything here and the ladies that are my cohorts of course. Thank you Awakenings for setting my life on the truest path. 🤍
I have tried alcohol rehabilitation in the past, but Awakenings was a whole new world for me. The personalized treatment, the care and consideration of all the staff, and the multidisciplinary tools have changed my outlook on my future. I could not have had a better experience.
I cannot say enough positive things about Awakenings by the Sea. I just discharged after a 30 day stay and I can honestly say it was a life changing experience. The staff, all around, are so kind and caring! The counselors work hard to provide both group education AND individualized treatment plans. No two patients have exactly the same needs or concerns and I was so impressed by my counselor, Vicky, and her ability to take what I shared with her in 1:1 sessions and come up with meaningful, therapeutic assignments to help me process some of my specific needs. I made many great friends with the other patients in my time at Awakenings too! I’ll never forget this experience
