omprehensive daytime care for substance use recovery, offering clinical structure and support without overnight hospitalization.
San Diego Transformation Center's PHP in San Diego delivers intensive daytime addiction treatment with integrated co-occurring mental health support. You receive structured therapy, medication management, and wellness in our 15,000-square-foot Sorrento Valley clinic from one coordinated team, with rigorous care by day and home each night.
In PHP, you spend 5 to 6 hours a day, 5 to 6 days a week in structured therapy, skills groups, and psychiatric care, then return home each evening. The same clinicians guide your plan, reduce handoffs, and adjust intensity as you stabilize, so treatment stays coordinated and practical.
A coordinated daytime schedule keeps you engaged and supported while you live at home:
A Substance Use Disorder Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) is the most intensive outpatient level of care. You attend a supervised, structured day program for therapy, skills groups, and psychiatric care, then return home at night. PHP commonly serves as a step down from residential care, or a step up from standard outpatient when you need more support.
At San Diego Transformation Center, your multidisciplinary team coordinates the plan, monitors safety, and adjusts intensity as you progress. This keeps care cohesive and minimizes handoffs between levels.
We welcome adults facing challenges with alcohol, prescription medications, opioids, stimulants, or other substances.
Your aftercare plan starts on day one. As you stabilize, we adjust frequency and help you transition to IOP or OP with the same providers. We coordinate community resources, transitional housing, and peer support, and you leave with a written relapse-prevention plan, follow-up appointments, and clear next steps.
We treat:
If you are unsure whether PHP is the right fit for your pattern of use, our team will assess and recommend PHP, IOP, OP, or outpatient detox as appropriate.
Admission Requirements:
We accept most insurance plans and complete authorizations on your behalf. Before you start, we verify benefits and review any copay or coinsurance so there are no surprises. Self-pay options can be discussed if needed.
You don’t have to face addiction alone. Start your journey to real, lasting recovery in a supportive, expert-led environment.
Length varies by clinical need. Many clients participate for several weeks, with the team reviewing progress and adjusting intensity or stepping down to IOP or OP when you are ready.
For people who need daily structure without overnight care, PHP provides multiple hours of therapy, skills practice, and psychiatric support each day while you stay connected to home. A clinical assessment helps confirm whether it fits your needs.
Most clients use health insurance. We verify benefits, obtain authorizations, and review any copay or coinsurance before you start. Self-pay options can be discussed with admissions.
No. Insurance is common, but you can discuss self-pay. Either way, we provide a clear cost estimate up front.
Our PHP is an on-site, clinician-led day program. If you need more flexibility, we can discuss whether a lower level of care such as IOP is appropriate.
Days include check-ins, group therapy (process and skills), individual sessions, psychiatric support, and wrap-up planning. Consistent structure helps you practice tools that support recovery.
You are medically and psychiatrically stable for outpatient care, able to attend daily, and benefit from intensive structure. A clinical assessment confirms fit and safety.
We use evidence-based approaches such as CBT, DBT skills, relapse prevention, psychoeducation, and trauma-informed care, with EMDR available when clinically appropriate.
