About Laguna Shores

Laguna Shores Recovery is a family-owned treatment center offering detox and residential care for only 6 clients at a time in a serene, coastal mansion. They provide highly individualized care for substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health concerns while surrounding clients with love and support. With an emphasis on maintaining success after treatment, they help clients rediscover what matters most to them and build lives rooted in presence, purpose, and inner strength.
Laguna Shores equips clients with the skills and support for meaningful transformation. In a safe, fun, and comfortable atmosphere, clients engage in evidence-based therapies that unearth the authentic self, healing underlying causes of addiction. Clients receive two weekly 1:1 therapy sessions with an open-door policy for additional sessions. Yoga, nutrition, mindfulness, art, exercise, equine, and adventure therapies ensure well-rounded healing. Both 12-Step and non-12-Step options are available.
Laguna Shores’ mansion sits atop the cliffs of Dana Point and features floor-to-ceiling windows with views of the ocean, marina, and panoramic sunsets. Clients stay in well-appointed private or shared rooms with full or queen beds, enjoy nourishing meals from a private chef, and unwind in inviting common areas both indoors and outdoors. The coastal location provides easy access for weekend outings to beaches, museums, professional sports games, and more.
Laguna Shores ensures every client leaves with a personalized plan for continued care. They coordinate step-down outpatient options locally or near the client’s home, as well as support for housing, legal, healthcare, and social needs. Alumni programs and support groups provide ongoing connection and inspiration, while continued counseling and substance monitoring help clients sustain their progress and lead purposeful, joyful lives beyond treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Laguna Shores accept Medicaid?
SAMHSA data does not list Medicaid among this facility's accepted payment types. Call (866) 471-8953 directly to confirm — coverage may have changed since the last SAMHSA sync. You can also browse other CA centers that accept Medicaid.
What level of care does Laguna Shores offer?
Does Laguna Shores have specialized programs?
SAMHSA data does not list specialized populations. The facility may still offer specialty tracks — confirm directly.

Specific therapy approaches are not listed in SAMHSA data. Contact the facility for clinical details.
How do I start treatment at Laguna Shores?
Call the facility directly at (866) 471-8953 for an intake assessment. Our free 24/7 helpline (+1 (205) 973-2878) can also help you compare programs, verify insurance, and navigate options. No physician referral is required.
Is treatment confidential?
Yes. Federal law (42 CFR Part 2) provides strict confidentiality protections for substance use treatment records — stricter than HIPAA. Records cannot be disclosed without written consent, even to family, employers, or law enforcement.
What happens when you call? (general intake process)

Most treatment centers follow a 4-step intake: (1) confidential assessment — substance history, mental health, insurance, preferences (protected by 42 CFR Part 2); (2) insurance verification — facility contacts your plan to confirm coverage and out-of-pocket costs; (3) level-of-care recommendation — clinical staff match you to detox, residential, PHP, IOP, or outpatient based on severity; (4) admission typically within 24–48 hours. Timing varies by facility and bed availability.
