About Zinnia Healing Serenity Lodge

Zinnia Health’s Serenity Lodge is a premier residential addiction recovery center for men in Lake Arrowhead, California. They serve men affected by substance use and co-occurring disorders. This facility is set on a peaceful 22 acre property with modern amenities. This includes fitness centers, movie theaters and yoga and meditation pyramids. There’s also a racquetball court, professional recording studio and outdoor pool and sauna. The facility boasts 48 private and semi private rooms. It’s just the ideal environment for recovery with all the trimmings.

They’re reputed for their quality and individualized care. This is evidenced by the numerous testimonies of past clients. They’re also LegitScript certified, which further demonstrates their commitment to quality.

Their residential treatment options include detox and inpatient rehabilitation. They also offer partial hospitalization or day treatment. This can be a step down from inpatient care or a standalone option if you need structured support without full time residency.

Detox occurs in a highly structured and therapeutic setting in their residential facility. It involves assessment, stabilization and 24/7 monitoring by experienced professionals. These experts can administer FDA approved medication if necessary to ease withdrawal symptoms. This ensures your detox is safe and comfortable. The process may take from three days to up to 14 days.

After detox, you can continue your recovery journey through their inpatient rehabilitation. This program involves intense therapy sessions with round the clock support by the recovery team. Their recovery approach integrates 12 Step procedures and proven therapeutic practices including cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing and matrix models. This is delivered in group, individual and family therapy sessions. These sessions focus on helping you address personal issues fueling your substance use and develop solid coping skills. You’ll learn valuable life skills like communication and building relationships. These promote relapse prevention and help you achieve and maintain recovery.

They also incorporate holistic approaches like mindfulness, art and music. These facilitate stress management, emotional expression and self-reflection which all contribute positively to your recovery process. SMART Recovery and other secular groups are also involved. These groups are structured around practical techniques to help you manage addiction. The duration of this program depends on your unique condition. After graduation, you can step down to the day treatment. This program incorporates similar evidence-based methods as their inpatient rehab but involves relatively fewer therapy sessions. It’s also less structured since you’ll receive treatment in the day and return home at night.

Aftercare service may involve referral to sober living facilities. This can help you develop independent living skills, accountability and community engagement which is vital for reintegrating into society. You can also join their alumni network for ongoing recovery support. Comments from past clients reflect an overwhelmingly positive experience and exceptional quality of care.

Serenity Lodge is a good location in Southern California nestled in the San Bernardino Mountains. This is my first time in a facility like this. They focus on internal issues, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and try to make you look inward to determine where your use comes from.The facilitators made me want to attend the classes. And you only have to program from certain hours a day. You come up here with problems and if you do the work and utilize your therapists, and resources up here to really try to better your life you can do it. I originally signed up for 37 days. But I did 62.I love the kitchen staff food is good and I enjoyed my volunteer days there.If you have a job or need disability they can get you started but don t forget to follow up with them. And the resources that apply. You can get the ball rolling yourself too!Highly recommend this location. When you call they ll even help you with transportation. I do miss Ms. Karen, Jorge, Cesar, Tommy, and Ray. Living in recovery they all speak with passion and from experience and advanced clinical knowledge They truly care about the clients. They will help you change your life. The first step is willingness to change.

Great experience here. First off the facilitators are top notch. Ray, Jorge, Tommy, and Cesar were all amazing and played a huge role in my recovery. They truly care for the clients and want everyone to succeed. They are the backbone of this place for sure. My therapist(s) have been amazing as well. They really get into the root cause of the addiction. The case managers are great as well, overall great people. Zinnia definitely needs to look at hiring some more case managers so they aren t so over worked all the time. The facility itself is great, could use some updates here and there but awesome amenities and food is good, just a little repetitive. Thank you everyone at serenity Lodge!

Other Forms of Payment

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.

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.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient
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.
inpatient iconInpatient
Inpatient rehab provides intensive treatment for clients exiting detox, those in early recovery, and those at an elevated risk of relapse. Unlike outpatient drug rehab, clients receiving inpatient care reside at the facility for the duration of the program. The length of stay may range from two weeks to 18 months or more, depending on the client's needs and the program's design. Inpatient treatment typically involves extensive addiction education and recovery-focused life skills training.
intensive-outpatient iconIntensive Outpatient
IOPs focus on getting people the help that they need while letting them continue to live at home. Some people benefit when they can go home at the end of the day to family support. People in an intensive outpatient program still visit the rehab facility on a regular basis. These programs typically involve multiple visits per week to take part in therapy sessions. While IOPs are a great option for many people, understand that they aren’t for everyone. Individuals with a chronic drug abuse history usually do better in controlled environments. Also, sometimes relationships between family members are toxic and add more stress. In these situations, inpatient is a better choice.
aftercare iconAftercare Support
Rehab aftercare programs offer clients in addiction recovery a robust continuum of care after clients have completed active treatment. These services address recovery as a life-long process and are designed to evolve with clients' changing needs. Clients may partner with their case managers and/or addiction recovery team to identify the rehab aftercare services that are right for them. They may receive career counseling, housing assistance, peer coaching, 12 step program induction, among many other services.
12-step icon12-Step
The 12-Steps lay the foundation for recovery. Regardless of the substance, the 12-Step Program at Serenity Lodge helps their guests re-discover themselves spiritually and holistically. They conduct multiple on-site AA and NA meetings per day, giving their Guests the outlet they need to express themselves and build relationships with others.
sober-living iconSober Living Homes
Sober living homes in California offers an intermediate sober environment that has less structure than inpatient rehab but more than typical home environments. This makes it a good option for those who have concerns about transitioning back to the "real world" after treatment. Residents can typically live at the halfway house as long as they want, if they are willing to follow house rules. These may include a curfew, chores, and maintaining a job.
heart-hands iconIntervention Services
When an individual is in denial about their substance use disorder, their loved ones may organize a drug intervention in California. This effort involves gently but assertively confronting the individual about their substance use and sharing how it has affected those who care about them. A professional interventionist may also attend this gathering. Their expertise with intervention services can prove helpful in guiding the conversation to a positive result.
partial-hospitalization iconPartial Hospitalization Program
Commonly known as "day treatment," a partial hospitalization program (PHP) is an intensive form of outpatient treatment where clients meet during the day and return home in the evening. PHP treatment doesn't require 24-hour care and often serves as an alternative to inpatient hospitalization or a step-down after a residential program. With PHP treatment, you can receive daily support for 6 to 8 hours which includes evidence-based therapies and medication management. The cost of PHP treatment typically varies but averages 90 days.
medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox
When addicted, quitting your drug of choice suddenly can be dangerous. That's why experts agree a medically assisted detox is the safest way to remove addictive substances from the body. Usually done in an inpatient setting, your vitals signs and overall well being are consistently monitored and rechecked in order to keep you safe and ensure the detox is successful.
24-hour icon24-Hour Clinical Care
During the first phase of recovery – detox – it is crucial to have 24-hour clinical care in California. This care provides constant monitoring in order to ensure your safely and comfort as you progress through the withdrawal process for drug or alcohol addiction. Licensed professionals prescribe medications to treat withdrawal symptoms and provide frequent monitoring to ensure your safely as addictive toxins leave your system.

Treatments

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 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.

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

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.

Programs

adult-program thumbnail image
Adult Program
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.

Clinical Services

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

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.

For clients who are struggling with ambivalence toward change, motivational interviewing in California can help strengthen their commitment to change. Using a conversational method, the therapist helps you explore your motivations and empowers you to make the changes you desire.

Trauma therapy is a structured approach used by therapists to help you heal from a past traumatic event. Your therapist works with you to identify the traumatic memory and process the information so you experience emotional healing and a sense of safety and stability.

While in rehab treatment, you may work on developing various life skills to help you in long term recovery. These may include resilience, interpersonal skills, and self awareness. The focus will be on developing healthy habits for self care and relationships so you have the skills you need to manage day to day life.

Recreational therapy is included in alcohol and drug addiction treatment to focus on engaging you in healthy activities that reduce your cravings and improve your overall health and well being. When you participate in group sports, art, or nature walks, you develop new interests and find a meaningful way to spend your time and reduce your cravings.

Serenity lodge gave me a second chance at life! The magic that happens on that mountain top is spiritual and life changing. With over 30 straight years of alcohol and drug addiction I didn’t think I had a chance at recovery but the love and understanding offered by the facilitators and the knowledge gained from the instructors proved me wrong. They understood my situation and respected my lack of knowledge with class. They changed my whole belief system from the perspective of a hopeless alcoholic/addict to a new way of life, without the use of drugs and alcohol. Knowledge is power when it comes to a life of recovery, and they teach from experience, not just curriculum. They are there because they care about your life and only want to give you the right tools to battle your addiction. Tommy, Ray, Cesar, and Jorge, I can’t thank you enough for bringing me out of the dark and helping me to see the light again. I discovered my worth again at serenity lodge. From day 1, i was treated with respect and care from every facilitator I came in contact with, setting the foundation for my journey. There is something truly special about this place. Tim, Mark, John, and all the other staff, thank you for your time, patience, and support. Now I want to bring to forefront lastly, but most importantly, the brotherhood. The solid brotherhood I developed with the other members at serenity lodge was the most incredible part. I was humbled with the amount of Camaraderie that took place when I arrived and was quickly welcomed with love and support from my fellow brothers. Everyday I would meet someone new and I would listen to and grow from the stories they shared of pain and addiction. Many of which could much relate with even though many members were from another part of the country. A life long bond with complete strangers, who would have thought? In conclusion, I would absolutely recommend serenity Lodge to anybody who wants a second chance at life, it is possible! At 47 years old, I’m living proof! Thank you again to everyone at Serenity Lodge! - Nick Clevenger

When I finally gathered the courage to call Serenity Lodge I was scared and nervous. Im glad I did though! Im sober and full of the knowledge and tools needed to maintain my sobriety! The staff is well experienced and understand how our brain works, most of them have been in recovery so that makes it easier to relate. I've learned techniques on crucial topics that always led to my relapse (ex. Relationships, communication, CBT,triggers, coping skills, behavior patterns, anger management and so much more! My notebook was full of notes and they also provided packets of literature to go along with each class. I always tell people that my experience was like going to college for addiction and summer camp for adults. There is a special brotherhood as well and very welcoming! The methods and routine like environment plays a huge roll in developing clarity. I learned about myself, dug deep into my past and core-beliefs to reveal and heal my hidden pains ive never been able to discover let alone talk about. If you have a chance to attend Serenity then take it! It was the best decision I have ever made! You can beat the disease of addiction, just need some help from someone who has. Sobriety is fun now, and ill forever remember my time there and friendships(good friends) gained! Much love, you got this! -Joey V.
