Sustainable Recovery
Drug Rehab in Citrus Heights, CA
Finding treatment that truly works for both your addiction and your life can be tough in California. Many programs require stepping away from work or family, or feel too much like a hospital.
Yet the need is very real: Approximately 5.6 million Californians age 12 and older (17%) reported meeting the criteria for a substance use disorder (SUD) in 2022 to 2023, according to the Substance Use in California Almanac, 2025. At New Dawn in Citrus Heights, we offer Intensive Outpatient (IOP) and Day Treatment programs built to fit your real life – work, family, responsibilities – while giving you the clinical strength and support you need to heal and move forward.

New Dawn’s Day Treatment Program
Our Day Treatment Program offers a path forward for individuals who need a little more support before they feel confident returning to their daily lives. It’s often the first step toward renewed independence – a place where structure meets freedom. Clients at New Dawn will spend most of the day in therapy and skill-building sessions, then return home or to sober housing in the evenings. This balance helps clients practice what they have learned in real-world settings, with guidance and accountability still close by.
Here’s what makes our Day Treatment Program effective:
- Six hours of therapy, up to 5 days a week: Clients participate in both individual and group sessions, ensuring personalized attention and peer support.
- Transition support: Individuals stepping down from inpatient, detox, or residential care benefit from the program’s intensity and structure, helping them maintain stability.
- Drug testing for accountability: Regular testing ensures compliance with sobriety requirements and reinforces healthy habits.
- Relapse support, not discharge: Relapse is recognized as part of recovery. Instead of sending clients away, we help minimize their effects and work with them to get back on track.
- Structured days with real-world practice: Each day balances therapy, coping skills, and personal reflection, helping clients rebuild routines, confidence, and self-trust.
Day Treatment is a chance to strengthen recovery skills, rebuild independence, and gain the confidence to move forward – all with the guidance and support of a dedicated care team. It is where many clients start to feel steady again – that turning point when recovery shifts from surviving to living.
Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
For many, the Intensive Outpatient Program at New Dawn is where recovery begins to take root. It is structured enough to provide accountability, but still flexible enough to let you keep living your life. Here, IOP is ideal for anyone who needs consistent support without full-time care. Most clients attend several sessions a week – a rhythm that helps build new habits while still balancing your life.
Here’s what to expect:
- Focused therapy sessions: You’ll meet for individual and group therapy designed to uncover root causes, strengthen coping skills, and prevent relapse.
- Flexible scheduling: Morning and evening options allow you to stay engaged in daily life while receiving quality care.
- Comprehensive support: From dual-diagnosis care to family involvement, every piece of your recovery plan connects back to your long-term goals.
- A strong recovery community: You’ll learn alongside others who understand what you’re going through – people who hold you accountable and remind you that you’re not alone.
Our IOP blends clinical structure with compassion. It’s not about “checking boxes.” It’s about building consistency, confidence, and connection: the foundation for lifelong recovery.
Experiential & Holistic Therapies at New Dawn Citrus Heights
Recovery isn’t just talk therapy – hands-on experiences help you practice coping and reconnect with yourself. At New Dawn, clients have access to a range of hands-on and mind-body approaches that help them reconnect, cope, and build resilience.
Some of these therapies include:
- Mindfulness, Yoga, and Movement – Calm the nervous system, reduce stress, and improve focus and body awareness.
- Art and Music Therapy – Safe spaces to express emotions, process trauma, and build self-awareness.
- Family Therapy and Support Groups – Strengthen relationships and create a supportive network that sustains recovery.
- Equine and Animal-Assisted Therapy – Hands-on experiences with animals to build trust, empathy, and confidence.
- Holistic Wellness Supports – Nutritional guidance, meditation, and other mind-body practices to reinforce overall well-being and a healthy lifestyle.
These therapies complement our clinical programs, giving clients tools and experiences that support lasting recovery – body, mind, and spirit.
Aftercare & Alumni Support
Finishing with Day Treatment or IOP isn’t the end of recovery… It's just the next step. At New Dawn, our alumni program keeps you connected, supported, and prepared for the challenges of daily life after treatment.
Recovery evolves, and having a reliable support system can make all the difference.
- Personalized relapse prevention: Every graduate gets a plan tailored to their triggers, cravings, and daily routines. These strategies turn what you learn in therapy into tools you can actually use.
- Ongoing check-ins and guidance: Regular touchpoints with your care team provide encouragement, accountability, and support while you adjust to life outside the program.
- Flexible continuing therapy: Whether you prefer individual sessions, group therapy, or outpatient and hybrid options, support stays available as your schedule and life change.
- Mentorship and community: Connect with peers who’ve been through similar experiences. Alumni events, workshops, and peer mentorship opportunities give you a chance to both receive and offer support.
- 24/7 access to resources: Our alumni app keeps the community and guidance within reach whenever you need it, whether it’s advice, encouragement, or just a reminder you’re not alone.
Our alumni program is more than follow-up care. It’s a bridge to lasting independence and confidence. Graduates leave with practical tools, meaningful connections, and a structured support system that helps them continue growing in recovery, career, and relationships.
Addiction Treatment Services At Our Citrus Heights Drug Rehab
At New Dawn in Citrus Heights, we understand how each substance affects the body and mind differently, and recovery requires a plan that fits each individual. Our programs combine clinical care, therapy, and practical support so clients can rebuild their lives with confidence. Below is a closer look at the treatments we offer:
Alcoholism Treatment
Alcohol can disrupt routines, relationships, sleep, and emotional stability. Over time, drinking often becomes tied to stress relief, social anxiety, or avoidance of difficult emotions. Withdrawal symptoms can make stopping feel overwhelming without support.
Our Citrus Heights alcoholism treatment provides medical support when needed, along with trauma-informed therapy and structured residential care. Clients learn to identify triggers, manage cravings, regulate emotions, and rebuild healthy daily patterns. Treatment also focuses on relapse prevention planning, boundary setting, and restoring accountability in both personal and professional life.
Heroin Addiction Treatment
Heroin creates intense physical dependence and powerful cravings due to its impact on the brain’s opioid receptors. Many individuals experience cycles of withdrawal, relapse, and increasing instability in work, relationships, and physical health.
For heroin addiction treatment, we offer medically supervised detox, structured therapy, and personalized care plans tailored to opioid recovery. Clients gain tools to retrain the brain’s reward system, strengthen impulse control, and rebuild routines that support long-term sobriety. Ongoing counseling also addresses trauma, stress management, and relapse prevention strategies essential for sustained recovery.
Cocaine Addiction Treatment
Cocaine use can significantly disrupt emotional regulation, impulse control, and decision-making. Binge patterns often lead to crashes, irritability, and heightened relapse risk. Sleep disruption and mood instability can make daily functioning more difficult over time.
Our cocaine addiction therapy in Citrus Heights focuses on retraining behavioral patterns and strengthening coping strategies that reduce stimulant-driven cycles. Clients engage in structured programming, experiential therapies, and peer support groups to rebuild motivation, improve focus, and restore emotional balance. Treatment also addresses high-risk environments and relapse triggers common in stimulant use disorders.
Meth Addiction Treatment
Methamphetamine affects concentration, emotional regulation, and the brain’s natural pleasure response. Long-term use can lead to severe mood swings, low motivation, and difficulty experiencing enjoyment without substances.
Our Citrus Heights meth addiction treatment blends trauma-informed therapy, holistic approaches, and individualized treatment planning. Clients work on restoring cognitive function, stabilizing mood, and developing sustainable routines. Structured daily programming supports consistency, while experiential therapies help rebuild focus, confidence, and long-term brain health.
Fentanyl Addiction Treatment
Fentanyl’s potency creates a high risk of overdose and rapid physical dependence. Even small amounts can significantly impact respiratory function and increase medical risk, making professional treatment essential.
We provide comprehensive fentanyl addiction treatment, including detox services with close medical monitoring, counseling, and peer support. Clients receive overdose education, relapse prevention training, and structured therapeutic care designed to rebuild safety and daily functioning. Treatment emphasizes stabilization, long-term planning, and practical strategies to reduce risk in real-world environments.
Benzodiazepine Addiction Treatment
No matter the substance, treatment at New Dawn Citrus Heights is designed to address both the physical and emotional challenges of addiction. Each program equips clients with practical tools, emotional resilience, and the support needed to maintain lasting recovery.
Dual Diagnosis Treatment: Mental Health Services in California
Substance use and mental health challenges are often closely linked. Many people entering IOP or Day Treatment are not only working to reduce or stop substance use, but also trying to manage anxiety, mood changes, trauma responses, or long-standing emotional patterns that make recovery harder to sustain.
At New Dawn in Citrus Heights, mental health care is integrated into addiction treatment from the start with our dual-diagnosis treatment. Therapy is not siloed or treated as an afterthought. Instead, clients receive coordinated support that addresses how mental health symptoms interact with stress, triggers, relationships, and daily responsibilities.
| Condition | How We Support You |
|---|---|
Anxiety Treatment | Anxiety often shows up as constant tension, racing thoughts, irritability, or a sense of being on edge. For many people, substances become a way to temporarily quiet these feelings, even though anxiety tends to rebound stronger over time. Anxiety treatment at New Dawn helps clients understand how stress and worry affect their thoughts, behaviors, and physical reactions. Therapy focuses on practical tools that can be used in real life, such as grounding strategies, emotional regulation skills, and healthier ways to respond to pressure. As anxiety becomes more manageable, clients often find it easier to stay present, focused, and engaged in recovery. |
Depression Treatment | Depression doesn’t always look like sadness. Many clients experience low energy, lack of motivation, emotional numbness, or difficulty finding enjoyment in daily life. These symptoms can make it hard to stay consistent in recovery without support. At New Dawn, depression treatment helps clients rebuild structure, routine, and emotional balance while addressing the underlying thoughts and behaviors that contribute to low mood. Therapy supports clients in reconnecting with motivation and self-worth at a pace that feels realistic. Over time, many people notice improved energy, clearer thinking, and greater confidence in their ability to move forward. |
Bipolar Disorder Treatment | Bipolar disorder can complicate recovery when shifts in mood affect judgment, sleep, or impulse control. Without consistent support, these changes can increase stress and vulnerability to relapse. Treatment at New Dawn focuses on helping clients recognize mood patterns and develop strategies to maintain stability while participating in IOP or Day Treatment. Therapy supports emotional awareness, routine-building, and decision-making skills that promote consistency. With coordinated care, clients learn how to protect their recovery across both high and low emotional states. |
OCD Treatment | Obsessive-compulsive patterns can involve intrusive thoughts, repetitive behaviors, or a strong need for control. These symptoms often create anxiety that feels difficult to tolerate without relief. OCD treatment at New Dawn helps clients understand how compulsive behaviors and substance use can reinforce one another. Therapy focuses on reducing avoidance, building tolerance for discomfort, and developing healthier responses to intrusive thoughts. As coping improves, clients often feel less driven by anxiety and more confident managing daily life without substances. |
PTSD Treatment | Trauma can affect sleep, emotional regulation, concentration, and sense of safety. Many people use substances to cope with flashbacks, emotional numbness, or persistent hypervigilance, even when it worsens symptoms over time. PTSD treatment at New Dawn is trauma-informed and carefully paced. Therapies such as Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) help clients process past experiences safely while staying grounded in the present. As trauma symptoms ease, many clients experience improved emotional stability, better stress tolerance, and a stronger sense of control in their recovery. |
Trauma Therapy | Not all trauma comes from a single event. Many clients carry long-term stress, relational wounds, or repeated experiences that shaped how they learned to cope and protect themselves. Trauma therapy at New Dawn is integrated throughout IOP and Day Treatment rather than confined to one session or phase. Counseling and holistic approaches help clients reconnect with their bodies, emotions, and sense of safety. Addressing trauma alongside addiction often makes recovery feel steadier, more personal, and more sustainable over time. |
Each client receives a tailored treatment plan that addresses both substance use and mental health needs. By combining therapy for addiction with evidence-based mental health care, clients at New Dawn develop the skills, insight, and emotional tools necessary to live a balanced, healthy life. Recovery becomes more sustainable when mental health challenges are treated with the same attention and care as addiction itself.

FAQs
How Can I Pay for Treatment?
Many alcohol and drug rehab centers will advertise that “insurance is accepted”, but if you look at the fine print on their website, they will usually disclose that YOU are responsible for billing your insurance company. This means that they are actually NOT a preferred provider with your health plan, and that you will have to pay the FULL cost of treatment at admission. That is a big risk to take with tens of thousands of dollars, and a heavy burden to carry while in early recovery.
At New Dawn, there is no fine print when we say that insurance is accepted. We will verify your benefits for you, and tell you during the pre-admission process exactly what your out-of-pocket expenses will be. We will never charge you more than your copay or deductible for covered services, and we are experts at getting as much treatment authorized as your insurance will allow. Billing your insurance is also something we do on your behalf, so that you can focus on what matters most – your recovery.
Many insurance plans cover up to 100% of our costs. Call us for a confidential insurance verification, and get started on your road to recovery today.
We have a number of affordable treatment options available that are designed to make recovery accessible without causing financial strain. In fact, we have a Treatment Pricing Guarantee that promises to match the cost of any comparable treatment center. We also offer special discounts to Veterans, First Responders, former Union workers and their family members, as well as to our Alumni.
Additionally, If you are interested in financing your out-of-pocket expenses, we have partnered with My Treatment Lender to help you access funds for treatment. They offer flexible financing options, low monthly payments and competitive interest rates for part or all of your drug and alcohol treatment costs. Call us today, we can help you get the life back that you deserve.
