What Is Residential Inpatient Treatment?

Key components of inpatient rehab typically include:

  • Medically supervised withdrawal
  • Individual therapy
  • Group therapy
  • Life skills development
  • Recovery-focused outings
  • Peer support and community building
  • Relapse prevention and aftercare planning

Residential inpatient treatment is a structured level of care that requires clients to live onsite at the facility while participating in a full schedule of therapeutic activities, clinical sessions, and recovery programming. Unlike outpatient or part-time programs, inpatient treatment provides 24/7 support, which can be essential in the early stages of sobriety.

At A Hope Restored, residential rehab is about more than just getting sober. It’s about addressing the underlying causes of addiction—trauma, mental health challenges, stress, grief, and more—while helping clients develop the tools they need to maintain recovery outside of treatment.

Build a foundation for long-term recovery

The Role of Inpatient Treatment in Addiction Recovery

Addiction affects every aspect of a person’s life—physical, emotional, relational, and spiritual. Effective treatment must be comprehensive and immersive, offering a break from harmful behaviors and space for deep healing.

Inpatient rehab serves as a foundation for long-term recovery by removing clients from environments that may enable substance use and surrounding them with professional support. This type of care is especially important for:

  • Individuals with moderate to severe substance use disorders
  • Those with co-occurring mental health conditions
  • Clients who have experienced relapse in the past
  • People without strong recovery support systems at home


At A Hope Restored, residential treatment is a time to pause, reflect, grow, and rebuild. It is both a retreat from chaos and a launching pad into a healthier, more fulfilling future.

Why Choose A Hope Restored?

There are many rehab programs to choose from, but few offer the intimacy, flexibility, and warmth of A Hope Restored. Our six-bed residential facility is intentionally small, allowing us to provide truly personalized care in a comfortable, home-like environment that feels safe and welcoming from day one.

Here’s what sets us apart:

Individualized, Whole-Person Treatment

We understand that no two recovery journeys are the same. That’s why each client receives a customized treatment plan tailored to their unique needs, preferences, and goals. From day one, we work collaboratively with you to understand your history, challenges, and hopes for the future.

Need a Spanish-speaking therapist? Struggling with an eating disorder alongside addiction? Prefer a non-12-step approach to recovery? We can bring in outside specialists to meet your specific needs and ensure your care is both culturally competent and clinically effective.

Unlike hospital-based rehabs or large, institutional facilities, A Hope Restored feels more like a home than a clinic. Our cozy environment fosters a sense of belonging, peace, and comfort, which helps ease the emotional challenges of early recovery.

Clients live together, cook and eat dinner together, and participate in daily routines that mimic real-life sobriety. These shared experiences help build a strong sense of community and accountability while reducing isolation.

One of the most powerful aspects of recovery is connection. At A Hope Restored, clients lean on each other for support, encouragement, and shared insight. Our small group size means you’ll never feel lost in the crowd—and you’ll have plenty of opportunity to form meaningful, authentic relationships with others walking the same path.

Group activities, mealtime conversations, and joint outings help foster camaraderie and make recovery feel more human—and even joyful.

At A Hope Restored, healing doesn’t just happen inside four walls. We believe that recovery includes joy, nature, creativity, and exploration. That’s why our inpatient program includes regular therapeutic outings that nourish the body, mind, and spirit.

Clients can participate in activities such as:

  • Surf therapy and beach trips
  • Hiking in scenic Orange County trails
  • Paddleboarding and outdoor recreation
  • Museum visits and cultural outings
  • Self-care days
  • Bowling and group bonding nights
  • Hot air balloon experiences


These experiences help clients reconnect with the world around them, develop new passions, and experience sobriety in a fun and fulfilling way.

Some clients resonate deeply with the 12-step model, while others are looking for alternatives such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, SMART Recovery, or mindfulness-based approaches. At A Hope Restored, we honor and support both 12-step and non-12-step options, allowing clients to build a recovery plan that aligns with their values and beliefs.

We believe there is no single right way to recover—only the right way for you.

Above all, A Hope Restored is guided by a deep commitment to ethics, transparency, and respect. We never take a one-size-fits-all approach. Every decision we make—every therapy offered, every provider brought in—is centered on what’s best for you as an individual.

Our goal is to empower clients to reclaim their voice, agency, and future.
