Embracing Renewal and Recovery.

Your Journey Starts Here.

Just as the lotus flower represents the potential for spiritual growth, our treatment center gives individuals entering recovery the chance to reinvent themselves. Addiction is a disease that affects every aspect of a person’s life, stripping them of who they are as individuals. The recovery journey is what brings them back to their true self.

In the beginning, recovery can feel very one-sided. It’s you who has to give up everything about your old life. In fact, it’s normal to grieve some of what was. However, recovery is a beautiful journey that gives back – we promise! It’s an opportunity to rediscover yourself, take steps towards who you want to be and create meaning and purpose in your life.

Lotus Recovery Treatment Center is here to walk this journey with you. We will be there every step of the way to cheer you on, celebrate your milestones and get you back on track if you fall.

Outpatient Recovery Services in Thousand Oaks, CA

As an outpatient treatment facility, our recovery programs are flexible and allow clients to return home or to one of our sober living houses at the end of each day. This setup is preferred by many clients, as it allows them to work on their recoveries while maintaining a sense of normalcy. Our outpatient rehab programs offer structure while allowing clients to maintain daily routines.

Partial Hospitalization Program

Partial day hospitalization is our most structured program, offering care five days a week. Clients spend time in one-on-one counseling, group therapy and family therapy. Comprehensive mental health services are also included. This model aligns with our Partial Hospitalization Program designed for individuals needing a higher level of care.

Intensive Outpatient Program

Intensive outpatient is a step down from PHP, providing treatment five days a week but for fewer hours. Clients continue working on their recoveries through individual and group therapy while having more freedom to practice their skills. Our intensive outpatient program supports those transitioning from higher levels of care.

Outpatient Treatment

Our outpatient program offers flexible treatment three days a week, including convenient evening sessions. Clients begin transitioning into daily life while maintaining a dedicated support system. This adaptable structure allows individuals to receive therapy without sacrificing their daytime work or personal commitments.

Two Tracks of Care:

Mental Health and Substance Use

Lotus Recovery Treatment Center has two separate facilities: one for treating mental health disorders and one for treating substance use disorders. This dual approach allows us to support clients needing Dual Diagnosis Treatment in a focused setting.

Having two tracks of care allows us to provide highly tailored treatment services to our clients. Both tracks align with our role as a leading drug rehabilitation center helping clients with drug addiction treatment needs.

While mental disorders and substance use disorders often occur together, they don’t always have to. Additionally, some people may have a primary substance use disorder and secondary mental disorder (or vice versa). Our outpatient treatment center supports both conditions through compassionate care.

Therefore, we may recommend giving the most attention to the main problem. Offering two tracks of care in two different settings makes it possible to give our clients the personalized attention they need to address their substance use and its root causes. Clients also benefit from holistic therapy addiction options that help support mind-body balance.

I was a client at Lotus Recovery and I can’t recommend this place enough. My time was brief but very impactful. I see recovery in those rooms, people who lift one another up and arnt afraid to be vulnerable with their mistakes to help someone else. My therapy session were very impactful and a lot of covered very quickly because my therapist immediately made me feel safe and heard. This is the first program I’ve been to that has a separate mental health and substance track and because of that actually acknowledges the individuals who are not addicted just as much as the people who are addicts in recovery. Everyone’s voice was heard and everyone mattered. I want to shout out a couple of staff members that made everything worth while. Ryan, he was not afraid to bring levity to the group but at the same time speak his peace and call you out when it’s needed. Laura, made me feel seen and heard in a way many haven’t by acknowledging my chronic illnesses and helping me figure out the world around them. Marris with Art, just amazing so good at encouraging peoples creative side and building new hobbies. Chris (both of them) always met me with a smile and it made my day. Darren just really cares about you and there were days I was in his office with an issue and he was just there to listen and try to help in any way he could. This facility truly cares about everyone who walks through there and couldn’t recommend it enough to you or your loved ones
