Empowering Recovery Through Therapeutic Approaches

At Carrara, wellness is at the heart of our recovery approach. We provide a range of therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Somatic Trauma Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy, all designed to nurture your overall well-being. Our personalized care and supportive group sessions create a safe space for healing, helping you to reconnect with your mind, body, and soul. Embrace a holistic path to wellness as you overcome addiction and reclaim your life.

Somatic Trauma Therapy

Your addiction creates trauma in your life. You don’t mean to hurt the people you love; it just happens. You weren’t in control. Trauma not only comes from addiction, but it might be the reason why you took that wrong turn down the path of substance abuse in the first place.

Somatic Trauma Therapy addresses the trauma in your life. It restores the body-mind-soul connection within you, releasing you from the harrowing grip of emotional trauma. Your trauma doesn’t define you, and our team will help you heal that.

LEARN MORE

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

You’ve experienced problems in your life; it’s part of being human. Sometimes, we can’t see past our choices, and they create issues that are challenging to cope with. Our team of board-certified and licensed psychotherapists and psychologists will help you unpack those problems and find the solutions you seek.

We work with you individually to delve deep into your mind, touching the core of the problems that hold you back in life and manifest your addictive behaviors. Our intimate small group sessions let you witness other individuals facing similar problems in their lives, letting you know you’re not alone with these issues.

LEARN MORE

Dialectical Behavior Therapy

Talking things out is a therapeutic practice that unpacks your mind, soul, and emotions. When you learn to communicate, you’ll feel a resounding release of the problems and trauma in your life. You’ll experience a shift in your emotions and thinking you never thought possible.

The Carrara clinical team understands your behavior is as unique as your life. We work with you to uncover those patterns holding you back, helping you embrace the best version of your inner self. We’ll help you rebuild and strengthen your relationships, starting you on the path to emotional mastery.

Recovery Based Groups and Interventions

There’s no need to go it alone in your recovery. We understand that you might not feel like talking to anyone in your broken state. You don’t know who to trust, and you’re fearful of other people’s judgment.

But when you’re ready to share, Carrara offers you a recovery group session where you can divulge as much as you want in a controlled, safe, loving, and supportive space.

The Value of Recovery Based Groups and Interventions

Carrara Luxury Group offers a holistic approach to drug addiction recovery in luxurious California facilities.

TESTIMONIALS

"There are no words to express the gratitude I have for Jackie and Erin. I was shown such compassion and understanding by everyone I met while I was there and I truly believe that contributes immensely to my sobriety. Jackie and Erin always took extra time to talk to me and assure I was doing okay in times I needed it the most. They both have a loving, kind and enthusiastic personality. What I took with me was different than any other place I have been to, it was an experience I am so glad I didn’t miss. Both Jackie and Erin were such great role models. I will never be able to put into words how much I appreciate what was done for me and how much of an impact Jackie Erin and everyone had on me."

"When I came into treatment, needless to say, I was in a bad way. My family was done with me, and I was a shell of myself. When I walked into treatment that first day, I could not believe that this is where my life took me? I was embarrassed and ashamed. But soon after that initial shock, I realized that I was surrounded with people who were empathetic, kind , respectful, even loving. I didn’t feel like I was in a treatment facility, I felt like I was being actually cared for, and I couldn’t remember ever feeling like that before. Erin, Brenna, Nika and Katherine, thank you for taking care of me when I needed it the most."

Our Ultra-Luxury Drug Rehab & Alcohol Treatment programs

Battling the affliction of substance use disorder is a vicious cycle that few people manage to escape. 

  • Los Angeles, and California as a whole, is home to some of the wealthiest economies in the United States.

    •  But with that prosperity comes a price.

    While opportunities for growth are abundant in California and Los Angeles, there is a darker side rarely covered in the media. Addiction is rife. Maybe it started for you at an exclusive rooftop party, where you promised yourself that this line was only a one-off occasion in your life and nothing to worry about. Or maybe you started enjoying a fine bottle of wine with dinner, or a glass of 18-year-old Scotch after a hard day at the office, but those infrequent “treats” to yourself spun out of control. You began using them as a coping mechanism to get you through the day.

    Life in California is fast-paced and you need a coping mechanism to deal with the stress. What you quickly learned is, at first what was all fun, graduated to fun with problems, which then ultimately became all problems.

    Now you are facing a problem that only you can muster the courage to break free from. It’s possible to break free from the clutches of your addictions, but you have to take the first step and make the call.

    The people behind your recovery
    Care led by physicians, psychiatrists & master clinicians.

    Founder's Story

    I never planned on coming back.

    I had already built the company. I had already done the work. I had already sold Cliffside Malibu. If I wanted to, I could have stayed retired and spent the rest of my life doing anything I wanted.

    But then the drug epidemic showed up.
    And somewhere along the way, I became a father.

    There is nothing more rewarding than giving someone back their loved one. I’ve had the privilege of watching mothers get their sons back, wives get their husbands back, and children get their parents back. I’ve seen families reunited after years of pain, fear, and hopelessness. There is nothing in my life that has ever been more meaningful than that.

    But the drug epidemic changed everything.

    For the first time in my career, I started looking at this crisis through the eyes of a parent. I have children. Like every parent, I want to believe they’ll be safe. But the truth is, one mistake today can be fatal. One pill. One bad decision. One counterfeit tablet. That’s all it takes.

    And burying your child is the single most unnatural thing that can happen to a human being.

    It is my greatest fear.
    That’s why I came back.

    Carrara was never supposed to be about building another company. It was about answering a calling. It was about doing everything I know how to do, with the people I trust most, to help families avoid a pain that no parent should ever have to experience.

    I’ve spent more than two decades helping people recover from addiction. I’ve helped thousands of families get their loved ones back. But today, the mission feels more urgent than ever.

    If ten years of hard work means even one parent doesn’t have to stand over the grave of their child, then every sacrifice, every setback, and every hour will have been worth it.

    That’s why I’m here.
    And that’s why Carrara exists.
