Highwater Detox is a private, 12-bed, co-ed inpatient detox and residential rehab center in Granada Hills, near Los Angeles, California. In our co-ed rehab program, men and women receive treatment in the same facility and take part in many therapeutic activities together. Our co-ed setting is carefully structured and supervised by clinical staff 24 hours a day, so every patient can focus on recovery in an environment that feels safe, respectful, and supportive.
Benefits of Co-ed Rehab
Some people wonder whether co-ed treatment can be as effective as gender-specific rehab. For many patients, the answer is yes, and in some cases it offers unique advantages. Life after treatment includes work, family, friendships, and community, all of which involve people of every gender. Co-ed rehab allows patients to practice healthy communication, set boundaries, and build respectful relationships in a setting that mirrors the world they will return to, with professional guidance available every step of the way.
A Wider Range of Perspectives
Co-ed treatment also brings a wider range of perspectives into the recovery process. In group therapy, men and women often share different experiences with addiction, relationships, and emotions. Hearing these perspectives can help patients see their own situations more clearly, develop empathy, and recognize that addiction affects everyone. Many patients find that learning from others with different backgrounds strengthens their understanding of themselves.
Safety and Structure in Our Co-ed Program
Safety and focus are our top priorities. Highwater Detox maintains clear house guidelines on conduct, boundaries, and relationships between patients, and our staff supervise the facility around the clock. Patients can choose between individualized and shared rooms, giving them the level of privacy they need. Our small size means staff know every patient personally and can quickly address any concerns, keeping the environment calm and centered on recovery.
Treatment in Our Co-ed Program
Every patient in our co-ed program receives an individualized treatment plan. Care typically begins with medically supervised detox, which usually lasts 5 to 11 days, followed by residential rehab in 7, 30, 60, or 90-day programs. Treatment plans draw on evidence-based services, including individual therapy, group therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), addiction counseling, and Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) when clinically appropriate.
Balancing Community and Individual Care
While patients share group sessions and daily activities, individual therapy ensures that each person has private time to work on their own history, challenges, and goals. This balance between community and individual attention is one of the strengths of our program. Patients benefit from the support of peers while still receiving care that is fully tailored to them.
Couples, Pet-Friendly, and Dual Diagnosis Options
Our co-ed environment also makes it possible to offer couples rehab. Partners who both struggle with substance use can enter treatment together, each with their own individualized plan. We also offer a pet-friendly rehab option, so patients do not have to leave their companion animals behind. Patients with a co-occurring mental health disorder receive integrated dual diagnosis care within the co-ed program.
Amenities and Holistic Care
Beyond clinical care, patients enjoy a holistic approach to recovery that includes yoga classes, massage therapy, spa procedures, a fitness studio, and outdoor excursions and activities. Freshly prepared gourmet meals accommodate all dietary restrictions, and cell phones, computers, and internet access are allowed on a case-by-case basis so patients can stay connected to family.
