Located in one of the most exclusive areas of Northern California, Bayside Marin offers a picturesque space for adults to heal from addiction and mental health concerns. Residential care features a robust schedule from 8am-9pm, with 5.5 hours of daily group therapy and two hours of weekly private sessions for individual or family work. The team works closely with each client to develop a recovery program that will work for their unique needs.

Strengthen Recovery with 5 Focused Milestones

Instead of “steps,” clients move at their own pace through five focused phases:

  • Incentive: getting crystal clear on their own reasons for getting sober
  • Awareness: building insight into themselves and the nature of addiction
  • Support: creating a sober support system that’s allowed to give honest feedback
  • Vigilance: identifying relapse triggers and developing a prevention plan, and
  • Preparation: putting together a discharge plan

Restore Vitality in an Exclusive Setting

Just north of San Francisco, Bayside Marin welcomes clients to mountainside or canyonside residences with breathtaking bay and valley views. Their refined standard of living features bedrooms in both single and double configurations, spa-style pools, and farm-to-table meals from an executive chef. The 54-bed campus stays remarkably private with only six beds per house spread across a hillside. Phones and laptops are permitted, allowing clients to balance essential work responsibilities with deep rest.

Return to Life without Doing It Alone

The alumni program keeps people feeling supported after discharge, because staying on track is often hardest in the first year. To ease the transition, many clients move from residential care into Bayside Marin’s partial hospitalization (PHP) or intensive outpatient (IOP) programs. Alumni receive regular check-ins by phone and email, help finding local support, and invitations to weekly alumni groups where they can reconnect with peers to share victories and challenges.

Testimonial
I was treated like a person not judged like I thought I was going to be. I never felt more welcomed. The staff there are well trained in all areas of addiction and they all have also been down the road we have been down and share their stories and recovery journey. That really made me feel so comfortable knowing the staff knows what I am going through.
