We believe in creating personalized treatment plans because we recognize that no two journeys to recovery are the same. Our commitment is to your recovery. Our full-day schedule ensures that you are immersed in a supportive community and engaged in therapeutic clinical groups, even on weekends. This continued support fosters a sense of belonging and accelerates your healing process. We believe in the power of humility, accountability, and acceptance, and these values are at the core of our community.

Valley Vista is devoted to providing clinically-focused, evidence-based treatment. Every aspect of the program is rooted in scientific research and proven methodologies, ensuring that clients receive the most effective care possible.

A team of experienced professionals guides clients through every step, emphasizing the importance of personalized care in achieving long-lasting recovery.

Our Gender-Informed Addiction Treatment Programs

Understanding the distinct experiences of men and women in addiction and recovery, Valley Vista offers true gender-specific treatment. The women’s center, with 28 beds, and the men’s center, with 71 beds, are located two hours apart. This separation allows for tailored treatment approaches that address gender-specific issues, fostering a sense of community and understanding among clients. The gender-specific environments provide a safe and supportive space where clients can focus on their recovery without distraction.

Our men’s treatment center is separate from our women’s treatment center, allowing each to focus not only on comprehensive addiction care but also exploring the gender-specific issues and triggers that are often involved in substance use disorders and dual diagnosis conditions.

Comprehensive Daily Schedule

Valley Vista’s treatment program includes a full-day schedule of group sessions, which continue on weekends. This immersive approach ensures that clients are constantly engaged in their recovery journey. The rigorous schedule minimizes downtime and maximizes the therapeutic benefits, underscoring Valley Vista’s commitment to “doing recovery the right way, not the easy way.” Clients participate in a variety of therapeutic activities designed to address the physical, psychological, and emotional aspects of addiction.

This approach helps clients to quickly become part of the therapeutic community, reducing feelings of isolation and establishing a routine that supports their recovery journey.

The recommended length of stay at Valley Vista is 28-35 days, including both detox and residential treatment. This duration allows clients to fully engage in the recovery process and address the underlying issues contributing to their addiction. The structured environment and comprehensive support during this time provide a solid foundation for enduring recovery, helping clients build the skills and resilience needed for long-term sobriety.

Opiates vs Opioids

Opiates are a class of drugs derived from the opium poppy plant, primarily used for their pain-relieving properties. Some of the most common opiates include:

  • Morphine: Often used in medical settings to relieve severe pain.
  • Codeine: Commonly found in some prescription painkillers and cough syrups.
  • Heroin: An illegal and highly addictive drug derived from morphine.
  • Opium: The dried latex obtained from the opium poppy, which can be used directly or processed to produce other opiates.

In addition to these naturally occurring opiates, there are also synthetic and semi-synthetic opioids, which are chemically similar and have similar effects. Some of these include:

  • Oxycodone: Found in medications like OxyContin and Percocet.
  • Hydrocodone: Found in medications like Vicodin and Norco.
  • Fentanyl: A powerful synthetic opioid used medically for severe pain but also illicitly manufactured and sold.
  • Methadone: Used both as a pain reliever and in treatment programs for opioid addiction.

These substances can be highly addictive and are often associated with significant health risks, including overdose and death, especially when misused.
