About Touchstone Recovery Center

Touchstone Recovery Center, based in Fresno, California, provides an array of addiction and mental health services aimed at helping to meet individuals wherever they are on their road to recovery. Touchstone has several programs for substance abuse such as inpatient and outpatient rehab and specialized detox services. These programs are meticulously catered to suit individual requirements. Touchstone also has programs that focus directly on certain addictions like prescription drugs, stimulants, downers or alcohol.

Touchstone Recovery Center’s inpatient program is designed for those who require more of an intense and structured environment. Clients can get away from everyday triggers and distractions that tempt them in normal life. The center offers an environment that promotes social interaction and bonding where those in recovery receive 24/7 assistance. This can improve the chances of remaining sober during treatment.

In addition to the inpatient program they have an outpatient program for those who require a more flexible engagement. Options include both a partial hospitalization program (PHP) and an intensive outpatient program (IOP). The PHP is an intermediate level of care. It’s the next step down from inpatient treatment. Clients come in for a full day of structured therapy on weekdays but go home at night. This offers much greater freedom and access to family support than is afforded by residential treatment. The IOP provides an added tier of flexibility. It gives clients the ability to attend therapy sessions at set time intervals without needing to disrupt work, school or family responsibilities. The goal is to provide treatment for individuals who have a safe home environment and support systems but still need frequent therapy on a flexible schedule.

Touchstone has aftercare programs for clients who have finished primary treatment to help them stay in recovery. This aftercare helps with the transition from organized care to living on their own. Aftercare can involve ongoing therapy, group support meetings and regular follow up sessions to work through issues that crop up. These services can decrease the likelihood of self medication. Because of Touchstone’s focus on aftercare they make sure individuals move forward into life post treatment with a toolbox and support system to help them cope in recovery.

Making the decision to go into treatment at Touchstone Recovery Center saved my life! Their comprehensive approach to treating addiction provided the building blocks I needed in starting a sober life. I came in pretty rough, and at a very low and vulnerable point in my life, but their realness and compassion provided a safe place to start to heal. Each part of their team played an important role in my journey, and I have remained sober since. The case managers, providers, counselors, group facilitators, and support staff gave me structure and education to understand addiction as a disease and the underlying causes of it. I also can't say enough good things about their sober living housing they offered while in PHP & IOP treatment. It was the catalyst to taking my life back by putting into action the coping skills needed to live right. I'm still connected with the sober community I met through Touchstone Recovery Center and would recommend it to anyone thinking about changing their lives and starting their journey to sobriety. You are so worth it, and support like this is priceless to get your life and joy back like I have!

Accepted Insurance

Touchstone Recovery Center works with several private insurance providers and also accepts private payments when possible, please contact to verify your specific insurance provider.

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.

Medicare 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.

Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient
Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.
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
Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs.
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.
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.

Treatments

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.

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.
lgbtq-program thumbnail image
LGBTQ Program
Recovery is most successful when clients feel accepted and validated by their peers and treatment providers. Facilities that offer LGBTQ-inclusive programming are committed to creating a safe space where everyone can grow and recover without fear of judgment or discrimination. They will have dedicated policies in place to create a safe and supportive environment that fosters free expression.

Clinical Services

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.

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

The use of experiential therapy can be helpful for the treatment of behavioral disorders, including drug and alcohol addiction. This method teaches you how to release negative emotions and cope with pain from the past. Activities such as art, music, and animal care are used to facilitate this process.

I was coming off of fentanyl and meth and alcohol so I knew I was in for it. The withdrawals were going to be severe. I have never went to a rehab to where the meds were mismanaged. Example one night the lady working there gave me a full pill and she was supposed to to cut it in half because the dose called for half the mg that came in the pill. She realized what she had done once she gave the pill to me and she was signing off the binder. There was nothing to eat. And the staff didn’t cook. I was told we would be made breakfast lunch and dinner and there was even a menu or schedule of meals posted on the fridge however the only time a meal was made was when a client made dinner for other clients. This is unacceptable because people coming down from drugs and or alcohol need nutrients and good meals to recover. Even if I wanted to make my own food I had to sift through half expired food. I drank expired milk while I was there. sick clients had to cook our own meals. Again the meds were a BIG issue because they had no formal medical training except a cert online and were distracted and made many mistakes with clients medication the short two weeks while I was there. The second day I was there I remember feeling terrible and the person let me pop my meds out and I’m an addict so of course I popped two instead of 1 ADIVAN out of the package and took them without the person “giving me the meds” noticing. Us addicts will come up with tricks so you need to administer meds and not let the client do it. I have trauma from this next issue with the rehab. It was a Friday April 4th at 7am ish and I had came in on Wednesday April 2nd approximately 3pm (hadn’t been even 2 full days since my last fetty use). I was very upfront and honest and told them I was using up to 3 grams of fetty a day. That Friday less than 2 days since my last use another untrained employee came into my room and brought my meds to my bed as the withdrawals were just starting to set it. I was brought an 8mg suboxone film and while still half asleep not even 48 hours after I arrived the untrained employee put the sublingual film on my tongue. I went back to sleep (I am not new to suboxone, I took them for 3 years prior to coming into treatment)I woke up about 2 hours later dying of pain. I went into precipitative withdrawal brought upon by the nalaxone in the suboxone. They had to call an ambulance and I spent 5 agonizing days in Clovis hospital where they treated me like I was trash. I could not get a nurse to help me. I went # 2 in my pants and sat in it for 10 hours while in the worst pain in my life. I was alone and no one from Touchstone was there with me…..when THEY were the reason I went into precipitative withdrawal to begin with. They tried to say it’s hard to tell when to give suboxone with fetty. Liar. I was just at a different rehab called Align in Sonoma Ca and they waited 4 days before they gave me MAT medication, then slowly gave me 1mg Subutex then an hour later gave me another 1 mg Subutex (no nalaxone in it) Then after making sure my body could handle it they gave me a full 8 mg Subutex to help with the withdrawals and then would eventually put me on suboxone (w/nalaxone). Kenny discharged me while still in detox w/out warning at 2am after administering 200mg of Seroquel, then lied about a CA law not letting me have subs to take home. They not only destroyed my prescription I brought in of subs but they also kicked me out by calling the cops because Kenny didn’t want me to take a pic of the fridge in the shape it was in with expired food, hardly anything to eat no dates. Guess what Kenny I just brought home 19 day supply of Subs from Align Liar, he set me up to relapse, I should seek a lawyer and sue. U owe me $1300 I paid deductible. -Lynette

Completed Treatment in January, 2025. Still living my best life clean and sober applying all the tools Touchstone helped me aquire. I can’t say enough good things about Touchstone recovery center. From the moment I walked through the doors, I felt welcomed, understood, and genuinely cared for. The staff is incredibly compassionate and knowledgeable—every operations staff, clinician and support team member went above and beyond to make sure I had the tools I needed to start my recovery journey. The program is well-structured, blending therapy, group support, and holistic activities that really helped me address both the physical and emotional sides of addiction. The facility itself is clean, comfortable, and calming, which made a huge difference during such a challenging time. Thanks to their personalized approach, I feel stronger and more hopeful than ever. If you’re looking for a place that truly changes lives, this is it. Have an immense amount of love for the entire TRC team! Special shout-out for Chandler the resident Manager and my treatment team; Brandee, Louis, Brandy, Margaret, Kylie, Katie, Dawn, Crystal, Ralph, Kenny, Sarah, Derek and Wes. Keep doing God's work 🙏

This place is a foundation piece for me, personally. I attended Outpatient treatment here last year for 4 months. The staff is phenomenal. Groups taught me a lot about myself, some of the growth was painful, yet necessary. It was there that my journey to recovery started to feel possible and full of hope.
