1st Choice Detox Treatment Center

Compassionate, Evidence-Based Addiction Treatment Services in Granada Hills, CA

At 1st Choice Detox Treatment Center, we don’t just help you stop using — we prepare you for a full life in recovery. From medically supervised detox to real-world aftercare planning, every service we offer is built around one goal: lasting sobriety.

 

What Makes an Ethical Treatment Center Different?

Most people entering treatment don’t know what to look for — or what they deserve. At 1st Choice Detox Treatment Center, we believe you should know exactly what ethical, high-quality care looks like before you walk through any door, including ours.

An ethical treatment center is transparent about its credentials. It employs qualified clinical staff. It treats the whole person — not just the addiction. It plans for your life after treatment from day one. And it never prioritizes beds over people.

That is the standard we hold ourselves to, every single day, for every single client.

Our Addiction Treatment Services

Every service at 1st Choice Detox Treatment Center is designed to address the physical, emotional, and practical dimensions of recovery — because lasting sobriety requires all three

Medical Drug & Alcohol Detox Body:

24/7 physician-supervised detox from alcohol, opioids, benzos, meth, and more — managed with evidence-based comfort medications and continuous monitoring. Attempting detox alone can be life-threatening. We keep you safe, comfortable, and stable from day one.

Residential Detox & Stabilization Body:

After detox, our structured residential program gives you a calm, supported environment to stabilize physically and emotionally before stepping into the next phase of recovery. Round-the-clock clinical and nursing care, individualized planning, and daily therapeutic activities are all included.

Dual Diagnosis Treatment

Over 90% of people with addiction have a co-occurring mental health condition — anxiety, depression, PTSD, or trauma. We treat both simultaneously so neither goes unaddressed, which is one of the leading causes of relapse when ignore

Individual Therapy

One-on-one sessions with licensed clinicians to identify and work through the root causes driving your addiction. We use CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, and Trauma-Informed approaches tailored to you specifically

Group Therapy

Structured, therapist-facilitated sessions that build community, accountability, and real coping skills. Many clients say the bonds formed in group became the foundation of their long-term support network.

Family Therapy

Addiction affects everyone who loves the person struggling. We bring families into the healing process to rebuild trust, improve communication, and prepare loved ones to support recovery without enabling it.

Recovery Meetings — We Go With You

We accompany clients to offsite AA and NA meetings — not as a formality, but so attending feels familiar and comfortable before you’re on your own. Most facilities tell you about meetings. We walk in the door with you.

Life Skills & Reintegration

Sobriety has to work in the real world. We build daily structure, stress management, communication, and employment readiness into treatment so you leave genuinely prepared — not just sober.

Aftercare & Transition Planning

We start planning your post-treatment life on day one — not the last day. You leave with a complete, personalized aftercare plan: next-step placement coordinated, outpatient resources lined up, and your support network engaged.
