About Lighthouse of Hope Counseling Center

The Lighthouse of Hope Counseling Center offices are based in Sunnyvale, California, but they offer all their services virtually for your convenience. With their motto of “accepting everyone, judging no one,” they strive to be a helpful option for anyone looking for individual therapy sessions to work through addiction, grief or other mental health concerns. 

They also have family and couples counseling services, which can be useful if you’re preparing for marriage, navigating a crisis or looking for a neutral voice in a tough conversation. 

Crisis Intervention 

The Lighthouse team can step in to mediate and guide you through a crisis. Someone looking to start a sobriety journey could benefit from gentle and empathetic guidance as they take that first step. And on the other end, someone who has been in recovery for years but is facing extreme stress could help avoid relapse through encouragement and practical advice. 

Something I admire about Lighthouse is that they will never turn anyone away from treatment. Their grant from the SVCF Health fund Community Foundation means that low-income households can get the help they need, even if it’s out of the budget for this season. 

Nurturing Fathers Program 

If you’re a father, new or experienced, who wants to improve their influence on their children and learn how to show up for them in practical ways, you may enjoy the Sons to Fathers program. Part of the program is purely educational. You’ll learn about childhood development and about how children’s relationships with their caregivers shape them. 

The course coordinators then teach you practical parenting skills that foster healthy relationships between you and your kids. They can help you lean into a nurturing side of yourself that might not have come naturally to you.

I have been incredibly frustrated with my attempts to schedule couples counseling at Gloria's Office. Despite multiple requests for a morning Zoom appointment, my preferences were consistently disregarded. Communication between the receptionist and whomever seemed disconnected, as my requests for virtual sessions were repeatedly overridden with in-person appointments or completely removed/canceled with no updates being sent to me. This lack of attention to my needs has caused significant inconvenience and wasted time. It's disappointing to experience such inefficiency when seeking help. I expected better coordination and responsiveness from a professional counseling service. I hope this feedback prompts improvements in scheduling procedures and client communication moving forward.

Other Forms of Payment

Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.

Sliding scale payments are based on a client's income and family size. The goal is to make treatment affordable to everyone. By taking these factors into account, addiction recovery care providers help ensure that your treatment does not become a financial burden to you or your family, eliminating one barrier to care.

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.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

Clients receiving treatment at an outpatient rehab typically do not require hospitalization or intensive supervision and support. Outpatient addiction counseling and recovery education are often offered during the morning, evening, night, and weekend, allowing clients to tailor treatment to their own schedule. Partial hospitalization (PHP) and intensive outpatient (IOP) programs are the most time-intensive and are designed for clients who are at an increased relapse risk and/or who need more robust therapeutic support.

Treatments

Alcoholism, or alcohol use disorder (AUD), is defined by alcohol dependence. This is a state the body reaches when it experiences withdrawal symptoms in the absence of alcohol. A person who has AUD craves alcohol and continues to drink despite adverse consequences. Because withdrawing from alcohol can pose health risks, individuals with AUD should seek professional alcohol rehab in California to overcome their alcohol addiction. This process typically involves medical detox, rehabilitation, and maintenance.

Drug rehab in California teaches participants constructive ways to stay clean and sober. Treatment revolves around helping individuals stop using the substance they are addicted to and learn healthy habits to avoid relapse.

Inpatient treatment for drug and alcohol addiction with a focus on mental health is a good fit for people who need closer monitoring and care. Treatment may occur in a hospital setting, a clinic, or a luxury rehab center. Mental health counselors and staff are available 24/7. Therapies typically include group and individual counseling, relapse prevention education, and emotional coping skills training.

Clinical Services

Cognitive behavioral therapy in California is a method that therapists often use for the effective treatment of substance use disorders. It is based on the principle that substance abuse stems from unhelpful ways of thinking and patterns of behavior, which can be changed by helping the individual learn better ways of coping.

While participating in dialectical behavior therapy in California, you'll focus on four key areas of skill development: mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness, emotion regulation, and distress tolerance. Treatment includes weekly individual and group sessions.

Individual therapy for drug addiction includes a customized treatment plan that considers your history and life circumstances. During your therapy sessions, the therapist helps you uncover underlying issues and triggers for addictive behavior that support a holistic approach to recovery.

During group therapy, men and women learn to express their emotions openly in a non judgmental setting. This helps you process your feelings and reduces feelings of social isolation that are often associated with addiction.

Family therapy offers a platform for members to have an open dialogue about the challenges that addiction has placed on the family unit. Through guided sessions, therapists can help families develop healthy communication skills and address unresolved issues. By working together toward a common goal, they help to support their loved one's sobriety.

I learned about Lighthouse of Hope from the Psychology Today website (counselor finder) and called them to make an appointment regarding issues with my teenager who was having some anxiety issues due to the pandemic. The person answering the phone took some information from me and then sent me a request for documents via email which I promptly returned. They were supposed to contact me the following week and never called. I sent a follow-up email a few weeks later and never heard back from them. This prompted me to research this institution (user based reviews) and I found that many others have experienced very poor quality service and questionable billing practices. I should have listened to my “gut” since the level of competence of the intake person was very lacking. I would NOT recommend this place and will be notifying Psychology Today as well as posting this review in hopes of fulfilling a public service announcement.

Response from the owner
Lighthouse of Hope is an excellent agency and has many clients who are satire and receives excellent service. Don’t know what Agency you contacted.
