Addiction Treatment & Recovery Services for Women

Did You Know?
Women caught in the grip of addiction suffer a heavier emotional and social toll than their male counterparts. Judgment, shame and social criticism can affect women so severely that they will avoid seeking treatment in an attempt to avoid these feelings. Studies show that from 2004-2006, of the 6.3 million women ages 19-49 that needed addiction rehabilitation, only a startling 5.5% actually received any form of treatment.

Balboa Horizons understands that it takes courage to reach out for help and make the pivotal choice of recovery. Our program provides a caring and enthusiastic environment that also focuses on compassion and self-forgiveness.

You can change the statistics.
Regrettably, many women do not make the decision to seek treatment until their addiction has reached a crisis level; often leaving a trail of wreckage in the lives of both the woman suffering from addiction and her loved ones. Balboa Horizons addresses the families and loved ones who serve as a client’s support system and our program is designed to equip them with the skills they need to cope with life stressors. Our solution-oriented approach promotes relief, healing and continued support for the family in recovery.

Saving Your Face? Or Your Life?
Social stigma coupled with a battered self-esteem often contributes to the tendency of women to disguise or deny their addictions at all costs. They may become exceptional homemakers, students, career women, friends, employees and community leaders in order to protect their addiction so successfully that few will question the presence of desperation or despair. Others who are unable to maintain such outside appearances may head in the opposite direction, completely giving up on responsibilities or aspirations. They come to accept the futility and shame of their addicted life and attempt to “check-out” of this reality entirely.

The safe haven of Balboa Horizons offers a guilt-free philosophy that fosters freedom from the facades and self-defeating behaviors that developed as a need for safety during addiction. We have created a program with integrity, confidentiality and compassion that enables women to feel safe to reveal their truths about who they are, what happened and what they hope for. Through gender-specific treatment, our clients share their experiences finding individual and group strengths and discover that living to their full potential is finally within reach. Our holistic program focuses on the whole woman, allowing them to keep their assets and discard their liabilities without regret.

The women at Balboa Horizons graduate from our facility with happiness, confidence and, most importantly, a foundation for continued sobriety. Their success is our success!
