Specialization

  • 12-Step

    The term “12 Step Program” describes a way to recover from addiction that is based on the model developed by Alcoholics Anonymous. Many drug and alcohol treatment centers base their treatment on 12 steps – the first three of which are situational, the next four addressing the practical issues created by the addiction, followed by two steps focused on making amends for hurting others. Steps 10 and 11 involve a deeper examination of the previous steps and the final step is focused on helping others avoid and recover from addiction.
  • Holistic Therapy

    Facilities that offer “holistic therapy” see and treat patients in the context of their entire lives and health status. They treat the “whole person,” not just the addiction.

The HB Playa House is a wonderful place to start you journey. It is safe, peaceful and has the perfect balance b/w freedom and structure that you need in early recovery. I was NO where near ready to return home after treatment. But after a year at Playa House working my program, learning how to be disciplined again, get along with others, I had made massive progress. And they are MORE than reasonable about your medical needs and financial needs. THese people are not in this to get rich. Yes, it's a business but they are solid people who want you to succeed. I cannot say enough about the House Manager: He is a HUGE benefit. He treats you like a person, resident and not an inmate or patient. He knows how to build your confidence and self esteem and is always there for you. The requirements are reasonable. Some chores, very easy, some meetings, a curfew, but its a small price to pay for sobriety. Look, if you are serious and willing to work it IS THE PLACE FOR YOU. If you are looking to chase girls, be lax, lay around, they do NOT want you there. It's for the winners. Great location as well. Full disclosure, the website is a little out of date so call with any questions. And lastly, they are just like us. They know you are human. If you make mistakes and are honest about it. They WILL HELP YOU and give you another chance! All that being said, I was thrilled with it. They worked with me, gave me the time I needed to grow and didn't over promise. Call them and ask any tough questions you have. It's a great solid place to get your life back. It's not easy, but they will help you.

I followed the suggestions from rehab counselor and moved into sober living. I visited many different sober living places and Play House is where I decided to move. I was worried about security and relations with the other residents. It turns out that I had built strong relationships and lasting friendships with my roomates at the house. Jason the house manager is awesome. He is always available and very insightful. He and I had many conversations and I always felt relieved after our talks. I truly feel that I was blessed to be under the Playa House roof. I don't think I would still be sober if I did not go to sober living after rehab. I felt like I was apart of the family at Playa House. It is a great location, great managers, and great residents.

The staff really care about clients who are willing to do the work it takes to stay sober. Unfortunately, there is a quick turn over ratio so we see a lot of people in and out. Overall the people who commit to the program will stay sober and make it all worth it.The houses are very well maintained inside and outside. Sometimes there are repairs needed and it can take a couple weeks to complete. Most house managers have their CDAC but sometimes house managers only stick around for 3 months or so.
