Really enjoyed getting my treatment at South Coast Counseling. They had a great staff and got me on a good path to recovery. Taking the first step in getting the help I needed was difficult but I’m glad and grateful that I went to a good place to get me started on my path to sobriety. Also, I’d like to thank my case manager Michelle and others there (Jeremy, Jared, Stephanie, Skyler and everyone else) for thier help and support. I also made some good friends there as well.Posted on K PApril 10, 2026 I'm glad I found this place. It saved my life and many others. Highly recommend. 👍Posted on Raymond SantiagoApril 4, 2026 My experience with SCC began the moment I was picked up from the airport. Upon arrival to the facility, it was nothing but kindness, respect, and genuine care for me and my journey while in their care. I made arrangements to extend my stay with them to 90 days simply because i felt like i was growing and gaining so much from them and their program. The staff goes above and beyond for each and every client. Although I extended my stay to 90 days, I had to leave at just over 60 days due to a call that had come for me to tell me that my husband had passed away. I owe my life and my sobriety to the SCC Treatment center and their entire team. I made it through my husband’s passing and months after still sober! I’m a few weeks away from getting my 6 month coin! Thank you SCC for giving me my life back! I could never repay or say it enough but, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!!!Posted on Francine KeeneMarch 6, 2026 At Scc the people really care! From admissions, intake to clinical the whole program puts their all into helping others!Posted on Discovering_ NicoleMarch 6, 2026 Our family had an outstanding experience with SCC. My daughter has been to rehab 3 other times and this is the first one that really identified and addressed her underlying issues. The staff, in particular the counselor Michelle, did an exceptional job. I highly recommend them!Posted on Susan SoudenJanuary 19, 2026 What an amazing place! The staff, makes this place truly special to get my life in order. From rubble that I turned my life into. SCC truly cares, and provide the tools to rebuild a healthy, happy, productive life beyond your wildest dreams. My journey all started with the staff right here at SCC.Posted on Nicolas WhiteheadJanuary 10, 2026 Wonderful experience being there I highly recommend this place for anyone wanted to get soberPosted on Amber MorrisOctober 25, 2025 Wonderful and kind care for my daughter. Kind and helpful staff that communicated well and were always accessible and helpful. Multimodal care that helped my daughter find love and acceptance for herself.
