Center Overview

Located right across from Junipero Beach, our center is designed to combine clinical treatments with the warmth of a supportive home. Downtown Long Beach offers a peaceful backdrop for reflection and every detail, from our comfortable bedrooms to our open community spaces, is intentional, creating an environment where you can focus entirely on healing.

We’re Family-Owned & You’re Family-Treated

New Found Life has always been a family-owned establishment, and the value we place on family is reflected in our treatment programming. While in our care, patients become an integral part of our ever-expanding family. We recognize that true healing encompasses more than just the individual in treatment; it’s about mending relationships with loved ones as well. The goal of our family programming is to initiate and solidify recovery for the entire family unit.

Gender-Specific Treatment Programs 

Men and women often face unique challenges in addiction recovery. That’s why we offer gender-specific treatment programs at our rehab centers in Long Beach, CA designed to address the emotional, psychological, and social needs of each individual in a comfortable, supportive environment.
For women, our program provides a safe space to heal from trauma, build self-esteem, and develop healthy relationships. Many women in recovery benefit from addressing issues like co-dependency, body image, and family dynamics with providers who deeply understand their experiences.
Similarly, our men’s program focuses on challenges such as emotional expression, societal pressures, and accountability, helping them build resilience and healthy coping mechanisms. By separating treatment by gender, we reduce distractions, foster deeper connections, and allow participants to focus entirely on their recovery journey.

Navigating Payment Options for Your Recovery Journey

Access to quality care should not be limited by financial constraints, and we strive to make our treatment programs as accessible as possible. Our programs are covered by most health insurance plans and we offer several self-pay options to help you on your recovery journey.
We’re experienced in navigating the complexities of insurance coverage. The team at our Long Beach rehabilitation center will help you understand your benefits, determine your out-of-pocket costs, and explore all available treatment options. 
Everyone’s situation is unique, and we are committed to helping you find a payment plan that works for you. Contact us today to discuss your individual needs and how we can help you start your path to recovery.
