Mountain Gate Treatment Center (formerly known as Shahida's Place) is a
residential treatment center in Corona, California, that offers evidence-based programs for individuals struggling with addiction. The center offers a collaborative approach to
detox, led by a board-certified medical doctor. All patients receive personalized attention with 1:1 therapy sessions. While participation in groups programs is encouraged, it is not required during detox.
Clients can transition from detox to the inpatient residential phase, where they receive more intensive
group therapy and counseling sessions, guided by healthcare and clinical professionals. Daily group and individual therapy sessions continue, and patients work with medical staff, case managers, and therapists to set goals and address any residual medical concerns from the detox phase. Therapists and case managers also help patients set health goals, identify triggers, and create relapse prevention plans.
At Mountain Gate Treatment Center, individual therapy is a crucial component of addiction treatment. Patients receive one-on-one therapy sessions to discuss their personal history with drugs and/or alcohol. The center's highly-trained therapists lead group therapy sessions. Their comprehensive
medication-assisted treatment plan includes medications like Naltrexone and Vivitrol. To support long-term recovery, they offer a variety of aftercare options such as sober living facilities,
outpatient programs, recovery meetings, and mentorship programs.
Evidence-Based Context: According to SAMHSA's National Survey on Drug Use and Health (2023), approximately 48.7 million Americans aged 12 or older had a substance use disorder in the past year. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) emphasizes that treatment programs combining behavioral therapy with medication-assisted approaches show the highest rates of sustained recovery. Facilities like Mountain Gate Treatment Center provide structured pathways to evidence-based care.
