Sacred Journey Recovery provides men’s addiction treatment near Scripps Ranch with outpatient levels of care suited for men balancing careers, families, school schedules, and everyday obligations. Each option offers a clear plan, consistent accountability, and a supportive structure aligned with real-world demands.
IOP meets several times per week, allowing Scripps Ranch residents to receive focused treatment while continuing their jobs, coursework, or household responsibilities. This level is ideal for men stepping down from PHP or those who need reliable therapeutic engagement integrated into a manageable routine.
PHP provides a full-day clinical schedule for men who need stabilization, structure, and deeper therapeutic involvement. The program includes individual counseling, group work, and guided experiential exercises. PHP is often recommended after detox or residential treatment and helps men establish momentum during early sobriety.
Outpatient treatment offers continued therapeutic involvement for men completing PHP or IOP. Whether living in Scripps Ranch, Mira Mesa, or other central San Diego communities, men focus on relapse prevention, emotional steadiness, healthy routines, and long-term recovery strategies reinforced by peer connection.
Sacred Journey Recovery specializes in PHP, IOP, and outpatient care. If a man requires a higher level of stabilization, such as medical detox or residential treatment, our team helps coordinate placement with trusted facilities and ensures a smooth, clinically aligned transition.
Choosing Sacred Journey Recovery gives men a space where honesty and growth are encouraged every day.

Scripps Ranch is known for its quiet residential streets lined with eucalyptus trees, scenic views of Lake Miramar, and miles of walking and cycling paths through Miramar Ranch North, Stonebridge Estates, and the canyon systems surrounding the community. These peaceful outdoor spaces give men opportunities to unwind, reflect, and regulate emotions before and after treatment sessions.
Sacred Journey Recovery combines clinical therapy with adventure-based work, outdoor experiences, and hands-on activities that keep men engaged and focused. The program is led by someone who overcame heroin addiction and understands firsthand the challenges of detox, early sobriety, and rebuilding a life through structure and purpose. His lived experience shapes a culture that resonates with men from Scripps Ranch and the greater San Diego region.
Sacred Journey Recovery integrates experiential therapy, wilderness therapy, and adventure therapy to help men reconnect physically, emotionally, and mentally.
Scripps Ranch’s proximity to Lake Miramar, Mission Trails Regional Park, and canyon networks stretching toward Sabre Springs and Poway creates ideal conditions for year-round outdoor activities. Experiences may include hiking, rope-based elements, rappelling-style exercises, problem-solving challenges, and nature-based experiential sessions guided by trained staff.
These hands-on experiences reinforce core therapeutic skills such as emotional stability, communication, trust, presence, resilience, and follow-through, behaviors essential for long-term sobriety.
