Chelsea Manor Recovery

Built around a philosophy of dignity, medical excellence, and highly individualized care, Chelsea Manor Recovery is a small-census residential treatment center in Orange, California, offering medical detox and residential care for addiction and co-occurring mental health conditions. Its estate-style, home-like setting supports a more private and personal experience, with 24/7 medical oversight and close access to physicians, therapists, and clinical staff. Rather than following a one-size-fits-all program, care is shaped around each client’s substance use history, mental health needs, and goals, allowing treatment to evolve as progress is made.

Experience Clinical Care with Personal Attention

Treatment combines medical support, psychotherapy, and restorative wellness in one coordinated residential program. Individual therapy takes place several times each week and may include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), motivational interviewing (MI), trauma-focused care, and Seeking Safety, supported by group therapy, family sessions, psychiatric care, and medication-assisted treatment when appropriate. Beyond formal therapy, practices such as yoga, meditation, breathwork, nutrition support, fitness, and equine therapy add structure to the day and help clients build emotional regulation, physical stability, and healthier responses to triggers.

Recover in a Private, Home-Like Setting

The residential environment is designed to feel calm, comfortable, and discreet rather than institutional. Private rooms are available, including en-suite accommodations, while shared spaces such as a fireplace lounge, private library, wellness studio, gardens, and outdoor gathering areas give clients room to rest between sessions. An in-house chef prepares fresh meals and snacks, with dietary preferences and restrictions accommodated. Daily life balances therapy with movement, reflection, and recreation, including staff-supported gym visits and planned outings such as hiking, bowling, zoo visits, and art classes.

Benefit From Continued Support

Aftercare planning begins during treatment so the transition home is prepared in advance rather than addressed only at discharge. Depending on each client’s needs, the plan may include referrals to an outpatient therapist or psychiatrist, connections to support groups, medication follow-up, sober-living assistance, and a written relapse-prevention strategy. Support can continue through alumni programming as well, which includes ongoing check-ins, events, peer connection, and access to the clinical team. Together, these services help extend the structure of residential treatment into the next stage of everyday recovery.
