Learn More About Our Program

At Casa Palmera, every resident has the option to choose a private deluxe room that includes all necessary amenities. Alternatively, residents can opt for a semi-private room if they prefer that arrangement. Each room at Casa Palmera is thoughtfully designed to reflect the peaceful atmosphere of the treatment facility. Residents are encouraged to bring personal items to help make their rooms feel more like home.

Casa Palmera residents have many opportunities for supervised offsite outings. These include nature walks, boogie boarding, Torrey Pines Nature hike, and a variety of other activities.

Our average length of stay is 27 days, which includes both Residential and Partial Hospitalization programs. For those enrolled in our Intensive Outpatient Program, the average length of stay increases to 42 days. This duration is often influenced by insurance companies. Research has shown that the longer a person remains in treatment, the greater their chances for lasting long-term recovery. We always encourage patients to extend their stay if resources permit.

Each resident’s treatment program is customized to include individual and group therapies on a daily basis. Residents will have the opportunity for alone time during activities such as journal writing and reading. Group activities include yoga and movie night.
