Accreditation
- Joint Commission Accredited, Licensed by California DHCS
Villa Kali Ma is a women-only recovery center designed to support those struggling with substance use and co-occurring mental health challenges. The program offers a full continuum of care, including medically supported detox, residential treatment, partial hospitalization (PHP), and intensive outpatient services. With a focus on deep, sustainable healing, Villa Kali Ma helps women build the tools and inner strength needed to live with greater balance, health, and joy.
Villa Kali Ma’s philosophy draws from both Eastern and Western traditions, guiding women inward to move beyond fear, pain, and limiting patterns. Treatment includes individual, group, and family therapy that addresses emotional health, relationships, and behavioral change. Alongside traditional clinical work, clients engage in physical wellness practices, self-discovery experiences, and nature-based connection that support healing of the body, mind, and spirit. This integrated approach helps women reconnect with themselves and cultivate a sense of wholeness.
Preparing for life after treatment is a core part of the program. Villa Kali Ma helps each client develop a personalized recovery plan and a practical set of tools to support long-term sobriety. Continued support includes weekly online alumni groups led by primary therapists, as well as in-person alumni gatherings, workshops, and community events throughout the year. These connections help women stay grounded and supported well beyond residential care.
The residential center is located in a peaceful hillside home set on more than an acre of beautifully maintained land. Clients stay in private or shared suites with ensuite bathrooms, comfortable queen or full-size beds, and soft, inviting linens. Select rooms offer ocean views, while one suite opens to a private patio overlooking the garden and walking labyrinth. During free time, clients can relax by the poolside cabana, reflect in the meditation room, wander the labyrinth, or spend quiet moments in the garden—spaces designed to encourage calm, reflection, and renewal.
