About The Nook at the Bluffs
Their Mission
The Nook at the Bluffs strives to provide a customized and flexible approach for women who are newly recovering from substance use disorders and are looking to progress and transform their lives in sobriety. They offer a structured and affordable recovery program in a luxury setting. Their West Los Angeles location offers beautiful views overlooking The Bluffs of the Pacific Ocean, and is centrally located near recovery meetings, job opportunities, schools, and shopping centers, as well as a short distance from the beach. Their recovery program supports residents with resume building and other vocational support, starting or re-entering college courses, and monitoring individual recovery progress with case management services.
Outpatient Support
The Nook works hand-in-hand with Thrive Treatment, an outpatient and aftercare addiction treatment center available to their residents. The clinical staff at Thrive has over 30 years of expertise, offering a well-rounded healing experience and a solid foundation on which recovery can continue to be built and supported. The outpatient program uses evidence-based treatment methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), which helps patients process and discard self-defeating behaviors. Their holistic and trauma-focused approach also incorporates practicing mindfulness and meditation techniques. Their outpatient support along with their safe and sober living environment helps residents gain the accountability, life skills, and coping mechanisms needed to achieve success in long-term recovery.
