Offering trauma resolution using a holistic, mind-body-spirit approach, Villa Kali Ma helps women struggling with substance use and co-occurring mental health concerns through detox, residential, intensive outpatient (IOP), and partial hospitalization (PHP) levels of care. Their programs combine intensive clinical care with proven nervous system regulating therapies and somatic trauma modalities to bring profound healing in an intimate setting limited to just 6 women.

Find Wholeness with a Blended Approach

Villa Kali Ma's signature approach uses paths from East and West to guide women to look beyond their pain and fear and discover their true essence, helping release long-held emotional stress and retrain the body's nervous system and neural pathways. Through a range of therapies and modalities, their expert team of doctors, master's-level therapists, holistic practitioners, and support staff addresses issues like anxiety, depression, complex trauma and PTSD, attachment disorders, and substance use.

Nurture the Mind & Body for Deep Healing

Villa Kali Ma uses the ancient practices of yoga and ayurveda to help clients experience a profound shift in wellbeing. Going beyond physical stretching, yoga practice at Villa Kali Ma provides a structured and guided blueprint for retraining the mind, regulating emotions, leading women to rediscovering their true authentic self. They also support physical, psychological, and emotional healing by serving an organic whole food plant-based diet— healing the gut-brain connection, reducing neural-inflammation, and naturally boosting the feel-good hormones that control mood and anxiety.

Fully Immerse in Comfort & Serenity

Villa Kali Ma’s residential treatment center is situated in a hillside home on over an acre of land surrounded by beauty. Clients stay in private or shared guest suites with ensuite bathrooms and queen or full-size beds adorned with plush linens. Two of the rooms have ocean views, and one has its own large private patio that leads out to the labyrinth and garden. During free time, clients enjoy the tranquility of the poolside cabana, walks around the labyrinth, time in the garden, or the meditation room.

Reclaim Joy by Resolving Trauma
Reclaim Joy by Resolving Trauma
Villa Kali Ma helps clients address underlying trauma, believed by more and more people in the field of recovery to be the secret ingredient that drives addiction. Clients begin to make life more livable and joyful through trauma-specific therapies like eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), somatic experiencing (SE), trauma release exercises (TRE), and internal family systems therapy (IFS).
Thrive in a Supportive Outpatient Community
Thrive in a Supportive Outpatient Community
Villa Kali Ma’s intensive outpatient (IOP) and day treatment (PHP) programs provide powerful transformation while clients live at home or in Villa Kali Ma’s community housing. They combine psychotherapy, trauma therapies, expressive arts, and ancient healing traditions. Clients receive structured support through individual, group, and family therapy, plus wellness practices like yoga, nutrition, and body-based trauma care.
Involve Family in Recovery
Involve Family in Recovery
Villa Kali Ma offers family therapy sessions—in person or virtually—as an effective method for long-lasting impacts on all family members. It targets the way ancient family wounds, dysfunctional dynamics, and conflict avoidance contribute to addiction rather than supporting health and recovery. In addition to family therapy, loved ones may visit during weekly scheduled visiting hours.
