Costa Mesa, Orange County, California · Men's-only Residential Detox & Drug Rehab

Remember who you truly are.

At Above All Else Recovery, a premier mens-only facility, healing begins not with willpower, but with reconnection; to yourself, to something greater, and to a life worth living.

Sobriety can be more profound than abstinence alone; it is the return to the self you always were.

The Heart of Recovery.

Understanding your condition, and not just managing it, is what keeps relapse at bay. Recovery here means rediscovering who you truly are, reconnecting with purpose, and building a life of genuine meaning. The rest, we trust, takes care of itself.

More than sobriety. A return to spirit.

Holistic, Whole-Person Healing

We treat the full spectrum of mind, body, and spirit, because addiction doesn’t live in one place. Our integrated approach pairs clinical detox with deeply personal, experiential care that goes far beyond symptom management.

Experiential Over Clinical

Real change happens in lived moments, not just in therapy rooms. From family-style meals to community outings, every aspect of daily life at Above All Else is designed to build genuine connection and lasting healthy habits.

Spiritual Healing

Spirituality here means connection to a sense of purpose, to community, and to something larger than our addictions. Whether you find that through 12-step, nature, service, or simply honest conversation, we honor every path.

Safe, Supervised Detox

Medical detox isn’t just the first step; it’s the foundation. Our 18-bed facility provides round-the-clock clinical oversight in a calm, safe environment so your body can begin healing before the deeper work begins.

Residential Treatment

Seamlessly integrated with detox, residential treatment keeps you immersed in community and care with no disruptive transitions and no gaps. Here, the work of understanding yourself begins and builds momentum every day.

Understanding Your Condition

Knowledge is one of recovery’s most powerful tools. When men truly understand addiction, they stop fighting themselves and start working with themselves. That clarity changes everything.

Building Good Habits

Sobriety is sustained through structure and intention. Through daily rhythms, purposeful routines, and accountability, we help men build the kind of grounded, consistent habits that support a life they’re proud of.

Community & Connection

From AA meetings to community service, we encourage our men to give back early and often. Helping others is one of the most proven ways to anchor sobriety and to remember your own worth and purpose.

Adaptive Aftercare Planning

Every man’s path forward is unique. We meet each client where he is, honor where he’s going, and build an aftercare plan that’s honest, realistic, and flexible, because recovery is lifelong, not linear.

The Journey from detox to transformation, one honest step at a time.

Our integrated program moves with you, meeting you where you are, honoring how far you’ve come, and walking with you toward the life that’s waiting.

A place that feels like home, because it should.

Recovery isn’t something that happens to you in sessions; it’s something you live. Every day at Above All Else is woven with intentional moments: meals shared together, mornings with space to breathe, evenings of reflection and community. Kindness isn’t a program feature here. It’s the culture.
