<p><strong>ABOUT THE HAVEN AT PISMO</strong></p> <p>The Haven at Pismo is a <strong>luxury treatment center</strong> that provides medically supervised detoxification, residential treatment, and various levels of outpatient care for adult men and women grappling with addiction and co-occurring mental health disorders. Programming takes place in <strong>gender-separate settings</strong>, incorporating a full range of <strong>evidence-based practices, therapeutic services, and experiential therapies</strong> to help clients build a strong foundation for sobriety.</p> <p><strong>TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT</strong></p> <p>Treatment at The Haven begins with a <strong>comprehensive evaluation</strong>, assessing a client’s biological, psychological, social, and medical background to determine an individualized treatment plan and the level of care most needed. Individuals with <strong>co-occurring disorders</strong>, including eating disorders, depression and anxiety, and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), can find treatment in the following tracks.</p> <p>Men and women requiring the structure and support of a <strong>24-hour environment</strong> attend individual, group, and family therapy, develop life skills strategies through training and workshops, and receive medical and psychiatric attention, all within <strong>gender-separate residential recovery homes</strong>. Those stepping down from (or not in need of) residential care have access to similar services under a <strong>partial hospitalization program (PHP)</strong>, which offers as many as six hours of treatment, six days a week. There’s an <strong>intensive outpatient (IOP) track</strong> that consists of three three-hour sessions each week as well as outpatient counseling designed to accommodate various scheduling needs.</p> <p>While attending therapy and psychoeducational groups, participants of residential treatment are encouraged to take full advantage of the facility’s expansive holistic curriculum. Individual treatment plans may include <strong>acupuncture and massage therapy</strong>, yoga and meditation, exercise, equine therapy, and <strong>nutritional counseling and education</strong>. As the facility is set within proximity to the beach, clients have opportunity for surfing, kayaking, sailing, paddle boarding, and more.</p> <p>The Haven at Pismo also runs a <strong>transitional living home for men</strong> who’ve completed residential treatment or currently enrolled in either PHP or IOP care. The home provides men with opportunity to practice what they’ve learnt in treatment while <strong>furthering their education</strong>, practicing for upcoming interviews, and learning effective ways of searching for jobs. <strong>Drug testings</strong> occur regularly.</p> <p><strong>STAFF CREDENTIALS</strong></p> <p>Clinical staff at the Haven include a board-certified addiction psychiatrist, a <strong>licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT)</strong>, a psychiatric technician, and licensed therapists. Transitional living homes are run by on-site managers.</p> <p><strong>ACCOMMODATIONS & AMENITIES</strong></p> <p>Residents stay in homes specific to gender. Features of the large, well-appointed Mesa House for women include <strong>private and shared rooms</strong>, meeting spaces, and an outdoor pool with a fireplace. The Solana House for men offers a pool, numerous common spaces, and a deck with seating and seaside views.</p> <p><strong>WHAT ALUMNI SAY</strong></p> <p>In a critical review shared with Rehabs.com, alum A.C. referred to the Haven as “a joke” and its staff unprofessional, disorganized, and underqualified.</p> <p>In addition, though the facility has above-average ratings of 4.1 and 3.9 stars out of five, respectively, from 17 Google reviewers and 11 Facebook users, <strong>feedback on these sites was very much mixed</strong>.<small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a></small><small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-2"><sup>[2]</sup></a></small> Some reviewers credited the staff with helping them build up hope and self-confidence, one calling their experience “life changing,” yet others found the staff to be rude and disrespectful.</p> <p><strong>FINANCING</strong></p> <p>The Haven at Pismo <strong>accepts many major insurance plans</strong> including Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, CIGNA, Magellan, Value Options, and more.</p> <p><small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a> <a href="https://goo.gl/9D3qpH" target="_blank">https://goo.gl/9D3qpH</a></small><br /> <small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-2"><sup>[2]</sup></a> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pg/thehavenatpismo/reviews/?ref=page_internal" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/pg/thehavenatpismo/reviews/?ref=page_internal</a></small></p>
