Our Continuum of Care

A Recovery Journey That Evolves With You

Lasting recovery isn’t built in a single day or through a single program—it’s a journey that requires the right level of care at the right time. At Windansea Recovery in La Jolla, we’ve designed a continuum of care that supports clients from the earliest stages of treatment through long-term sobriety.

From inpatient stabilization to outpatient flexibility, evidence-based therapy to holistic practices, and relapse prevention through aftercare, our programs are built to evolve with you—providing seamless support at every step.

What Is a Continuum of Care?

A continuum of care is a treatment model that provides multiple levels of support instead of offering recovery as a “one-size-fits-all” process. Clients move through levels of care based on progress, clinical needs, and personal goals.

This approach ensures:

  • Smooth transitions between programs.
  • Reduced relapse risk through consistent structure.
  • Support that adapts as clients grow stronger in recovery.

The Windansea Recovery Continuum

  1. Inpatient Treatment

For clients who need the most structured support, inpatient treatment offers round-the-clock care in a private, healing environment.

  • Daily individual and group therapy.
  • CBT and DBT to build coping skills and address core issues.
  • Holistic therapies such as yoga, meditation, surf therapy, and cold plunge.
  • A safe, supportive, and private space to focus fully on recovery.

 

  1. Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)

PHP is the most intensive outpatient level of care, offering full-day treatment without overnight stays.

  • 5–7 days per week of therapy and holistic care.
  • A structured daily schedule that mirrors inpatient intensity.
  • Ideal for clients stepping down from inpatient or those needing significant structure while living at home or in sober living.

 

  1. Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)

IOP provides structured therapy with greater flexibility for work, school, or family responsibilities.

  • 3–5 days per week, several hours each day.
  • Focus on relapse prevention and applying recovery tools in real-world settings.
  • Community support and accountability through group work.

 

  1. Individual Therapy

One-on-one sessions with licensed clinicians help clients:

  • Address personal challenges in a private setting.
  • Explore trauma, triggers, and underlying causes of addiction.
  • Develop personalized strategies for lasting sobriety.

 

  1. Group Therapy

Group sessions create community, accountability, and shared learning.

  • Peer support in a safe, therapeutic space.
  • Opportunities to practice communication and conflict resolution.
  • A reminder that no one has to face recovery alone.

 

  1. Evidence-Based Therapies: CBT & DBT
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Helps clients identify and reframe negative thought patterns.
  • Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT): Focuses on mindfulness, emotional regulation, and building healthy coping skills.

Both therapies are proven to reduce relapse risk and promote long-term stability.

 

  1. Holistic Therapy

Healing the mind, body, and spirit is central to sustained recovery. Our holistic offerings include:

  • Yoga & meditation for stress management.
  • Surf therapy for confidence and resilience.
  • Cold plunge & breathwork for physical and emotional balance.
  • Sound healing and mindfulness practices.

 

  1. 12 Step Recovery

For clients who connect with fellowship-based recovery, we incorporate 12 Step principles alongside clinical treatment.

  • Access to meetings and step-based support.
  • Guidance from sponsors and peers in recovery.
  • Integration of accountability, service, and spiritual growth.

 

  1. Relapse Prevention

Relapse prevention training is woven into every stage of care. Clients learn how to:

  • Identify personal triggers and warning signs.
  • Use coping skills to manage cravings and stress.
  • Create a personalized relapse prevention plan for long-term success.

 

  1. Aftercare

Recovery doesn’t end when formal treatment does. Aftercare ensures continued support through:

  • Alumni programs and ongoing check-ins.
  • Access to therapy and group support as needed.

Community resources to strengthen recovery outside the treatment center.

Why a Continuum of Care Matters

Addiction is a chronic condition, and recovery is a lifelong process. A continuum of care ensures clients are never left without support, with each stage preparing them for the next.

  • Transitions are smooth and supported.
  • Families remain engaged throughout.
  • Clients build confidence and independence step by step.

 

Without this structure, gaps in care can increase the risk of relapse. With Windansea’s continuum, every client has a clear, supported path toward long-term recovery.

Substance Abuse + Mental Health Issues We Help With

At Windansea Recovery, we’re committed to being more than just a treatment center—we’re a trusted resource for anyone seeking insight, guidance, and hope on the path to recovery. Our blog features regularly updated articles on the latest developments in addiction treatment, recovery, and prevention. From expert perspectives to practical tools and inspiring stories, we provide valuable information to support individuals, families, and professionals in building healthier, more fulfilling lives.

At Windansea Recovery, we believe that sustainable healing from addiction requires addressing the whole person—not just the substance use disorder itself. A holistic approach to addiction treatment recognizes that true recovery encompasses physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. While evidence-based therapies like CBT and medication-assisted treatment form the foundation of effective care, complementary, holistic practices can significantly enhance outcomes and provide individuals with a more comprehensive healing experience.

Depression affects millions of Americans each year, yet many people suffering from this condition don’t receive the support they need. At Windansea Recovery, we understand that recognizing depression in someone you care about can be challenging. Symptoms may develop gradually, and many people struggling with depression become adept at hiding their pain from others. This guide will help you identify potential signs of depression in a loved one and provide guidance on how to approach this sensitive situation with compassion and understanding.

For individuals managing depression with Lexapro (escitalopram), understanding the potential interactions with alcohol is crucial for both safety and treatment effectiveness. At Windansea Recovery, we often work with clients who have questions about medication interactions with substances like alcohol. This guide explores the relationship between Lexapro and alcohol, the risks of combining them, and why alcohol consumption can be particularly problematic for those with depression.
