What is a Residential Treatment Program?
During your time in residential treatment, you have unlimited support from a trained team and take part in therapies such as individual counseling, group sessions, and skill-building activities. The goal is to dig deep into what’s driving your symptoms, heal the root source, and build a foundation for long-term recovery and stability.
In a residential treatment program, your physical and emotional well-being are prioritized round-the-clock, ensuring that you receive the proper medical care, nutrition, and emotional support needed for true healing..
The Duration of a Residential Treatment Program
When it comes to residential treatment, the length of care can vary greatly depending on your specific needs and circumstances. Generally, residential treatment programs fall somewhere between 30 to 90 days. However, some individuals benefit from staying in care longer, especially if they’re working through long-standing mental health symptoms or substance use.
Your treatment team will consider a few things when recommending how long you stay including how severe your symptoms are, whether there are co-ocurring issues, and how your progressing day to day. It can feel like a big commitment, but giving yourself enough time often leads to stronger, lasting results. Once residential treatment ends, continued support through aftercare and community resources is an important part of keeping that momentum going.

The Difference in Residential and Outpatient Treatment Programs
Residential Treatment
Residential treatment provides 24/7 therapeutic and medical care, daily individual and group sessions, and a structured, distraction-free environment—ideal when you need intensive healing and support.
Outpatient Treatment
Outpatient treatment allows you to live at home while attending scheduled sessions. It offers more flexibility and is often a next step after residential care as you return to daily routines.
What Makes Our Residential Treatment Center Unique?
Sabino Recovery is built around a trauma-first philosophy. We focus on healing the root causes, not just managing symptoms. This guides every part of our model and is one of the biggest reasons people choose us over symptom-focused or addiction-first programs.
Care here is truly individualized. You receive 10 or more one-on-one sessions each week with therapists, medical providers, dietitians, and integrative specialists, adding up to more than 50 personalized moments during your stay. Your treatment plan is reviewed daily and adjusted every week so it evolves with you. We don’t offer preset tracks or generic treatment templates. Everything is co-created around your needs.
You also have access to a wide range of integrative therapies, and you have a say in what you practice. Options like equine therapy, neurofeedback, and trauma-informed yoga are offered based on clinical recommendations and your own preferences.
The setting of Sabino Recovery itself also plays a role in your healing journey. Our 140-acre desert retreat offers a residential treatment program that’s quiet, private, and provides you space to reconnect with yourself away from the noise of daily life.
Family is part of our process too. Our 3.5 day family program helps repair strained relationships and strengthens support systems. Many residential treatment programs keep families at a distance, we bring them in with intention because healing happens in connection.
Support doesn’t end when you leave. Our alumni community is active, connected, and involved, offering encouragement and advocacy long after your stay with us ends.
Our Residential Treatment Programs Clinical Highlights
Sleep Study
Sleep is essential for healing, and we make sure each client’s sleep patterns are understood and supported. Using a sleep watch and a sleep history questionnaire, our medical team tracks nightly patterns and reviews the results with our sleep medicine doctor. If needed, additional testing in the sleep lab ensures your sleep needs are fully addressed.
Neurofeedback
Neurofeedback is like “exercise for your brain.” It helps the brain function more efficiently, improving attention, emotional regulation, and overall mental clarity. This training can support reductions in anxiety, stress reactions, depression, sleep challenges, and other emotional or physical symptoms. Clients eceive an initial brain map, 10 neurofeedback sessions, and a post-treatment brain map to track progress.
Equine Therapy
Our Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP) program offers a unique, trauma-informed approach to healing with horses. Guided by our masters-level and EAGALA-certified equine therapist, clients engage in both groundwork and horseback riding through the scenic Sabino Canyon, building trust, confidence, and emotional insight along the way.
Residential Treatment Program and Underlying Trauma
Our residential treatment program focuses on addressing both mental health and addiction issues by focusing on your underlying trauma. Our treatment center provides comprehensive care that explores all aspects of your well-being.
The process of healing involves identifying the root causes of your problems and working towards addressing them. Our in-depth approach allows you to thoroughly understand the factors at play and fosters long-term recovery. Throughout your time at our residential treatment program, you’ll receive support from experienced professionals to help you navigate the often complex and challenging journey to lasting wellness.
Our integrated medical model brings natural and medicare care together, weaving mind-body approaches with strong psychiatric support so your whole system can heal. With this holistic approach, you can greatly improve your chances of overcoming addiction and mental health struggles while also resolving the underlying trauma that may have contributed to these issues.
Remember, recovery is achievable, and this type of care can help you take the necessary strides towards a healthier, more balanced life.

The program at Sabino Recovery works! I emerged from an accumulation of unrecognized emotions, issues of trust, and unresolved grief and loss. 35-days of effective integration of customized quality therapy reconnected my mind, body, spirit, and I am worth it! I had masked emotions and hurtful events for decades with alcohol. At Sabino Recovery I safely focused deep within to unleash harmful secrets and self-degradation. Tools of recovery were practiced, not just presented. Integrative therapies were tailored to my circumstances, thus were effective. This residential program is like no other. For me, Sabino Recovery delivered what was professed. I am forever grateful for this gift of healing.
