Who we are
We understand that millions of Americans suffer from the disease of addiction. Ocean Coast Recovery offers a personalized, detailed experience in addiction treatment — and if we're not the right fit, we'll help you find a program that is.
Your journey starts here
Ocean Coast Recovery Center is not your typical addiction treatment center in Orange County. Our dedicated staff has years of personal and professional experience.
We are here to help any and every person who needs it. Whether you end up at our program or not, we will help you find the treatment that best fits your needs. When you enter our program you are an individual seeking help — not an illness.
“We don’t see you as an addict who happens to be a person. We see you as a person who happens to have an addiction.”

What makes Ocean Coast different
We take a holistic approach because addiction affects the whole person — mind, body, and spirit. Our treatment brings healing to all three.
You, not your illness
Individualized plans built around the person seeking help — never a one-size-fits-all program.
An intimate six-bed home
A close-knit healing community where you're a member, not a number — with true one-on-one attention.
Whole-person healing
Evidence-based clinical care blended with holistic therapies for mind, body, and spirit.

Read BioWe believe in family recovery
Addiction is often called a family disease — each person contributes to it in one way or another, frequently by unknowingly enabling a loved one. And that's okay.
Through our integrated family program, we work with you and your loved one to heal the core issues that may exist throughout the family and provide tools that aid in your family’s recovery as a unit.
Help for Your Loved One“Addiction is a family disease. When one person begins to heal, everyone around them gets the chance to heal too.”
Our family program
What people say about Ocean Coast
Real reviews from clients, alumni, and the families who trusted us with their loved ones.
“I was a client in 2023 and this treatment center was the beginning of my new life. I am forever grateful Ocean Coast Recovery. I have a choices now, before Ocean Coast, my only choice was my addiction. I truly believe without the help of this facility and the hardworking and very patient employees, I would not have the beautiful free life I have now. Thank you Ocean Coast for being there for me at my worst and continuing to be a resource that supports me on my sober journey.”
