Reviews of Our Program
Let me start by saying, I love this place so much <3 I truly had such a lovely experience here overall. Shoutout to Kate and David and Allee for being my rocks throughout my time at SCC. Not only did I detox here but I created a family and network of people who have my back to this day and for that I’m eternally grateful. Ray HuskissonApril 26, 2025 Reviewing a year after my stay at South Coast counseling. If you are considering in house detox, I would highly suggest this place. Brett is an amazing case manager, very knowledgeable and informative on addiction habits. I can't speak highly of him enough, he truly cares to have a personal relationship with his case members. Allison, the RN that was working here is amazing, a well. She's the sweetest, funniest and just all-around a good person. Recovery is a hard process and I'm happy to say SCC helped me be successful in my recovery. They provide fun activities, outings, great food, etc. I was really nervous and skeptical before coming here, but I'm so glad I got the opportunity to because it was one of the better life-experiences I've had. I heard from every other person at SCC that this was the best detox they had been to. Cap was the personal trainer during my time here and he was so much fun to work with, very encouraging on healthy habits and is so positive. Everyone I got to work with here was amazing and I'm so thankful for SSC and the great experience I had here. Melissa GladstoneApril 13, 2025 Couldn’t recommend this place enough.

I’m still in touch to this day going to meetings and it’s all thanks to Mikey took the time to sit down with you privately Worked out details that you needed to be worked out. Got you through rough times when you needed them and was always there to pick the phone up. I can’t say enough about SCC and Mikey. Michael SadlerApril 1, 2025 I cannot say enough good things about South Coast Counseling. From the moment I walked through the doors, I felt supported, understood, and truly cared for. The staff is compassionate, knowledgeable, and dedicated to helping every individual on their journey to recovery. They are down to earth and so easy to talk to and be around, it’s more like a family setting. The program itself is well-structured, offering a combination of therapy, group support, and practical life skills that have been crucial to my success. They remind you of how fun & amazing life can be without mind altering substances. Thanks to South Coast Counseling, I have regained control of my life, rebuilt relationships, and rediscovered hope for the future. If you or a loved one is struggling, I highly recommend this program—it truly saved my life. I’d like to give a special shoutout to Katie Johnson who still checks up on me after 5 years.

Addiction and mental health struggles can feel like a never-ending battle—but you don’t have to fight it alone.
Mikey knows that feeling all too well. Like many, he faced challenges that seemed impossible to overcome. But with the right support, everything changed. South Coast Counseling gave him the tools, structure, and care he needed to reclaim his life.
