Hillside Laguna

What Hillside Laguna does

Hillside Laguna (legal entity Hillside Laguna Beach, LLC) is a privately held, for-profit residential substance abuse treatment center operating a single facility in Laguna Beach, California since 2015. The company serves individuals struggling with alcohol, prescription drug, and illicit drug addiction, with a particular focus on dual diagnosis patients presenting with co-occurring mental health conditions (PTSD, trauma, depression, anxiety). Family members and partners of patients are a secondary served segment through integrated family and couples therapy programming.

The treatment model combines evidence-based clinical modalities — Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), EMDR, Somatic psychotherapy, and trauma-informed care — with a differentiated NAD IV Therapy alternative detox offering, plus a holistic program layer (yoga, acupuncture, massage, equine therapy, fitness, nutrition). The clinical staff is staffed predominantly at Masters-level or higher in psychology, with multiple practitioners holding 25+ years of addiction treatment experience and credentials from institutions including Harvard Medical School, UCLA, and Argosy University. Medical oversight for NAD IV Therapy is provided by a UCLA-trained, ASAM-certified physician. The facility holds Joint Commission accreditation for Behavioral Health Care and California DHCS certification under Alcohol and Other Drug Certification Standards.

Hillside Laguna operates a direct-to-consumer go-to-market model. Patient acquisition runs through a 24/7 phone line, website inquiries, self-assessment digital tools, and insurance benefits verification. Revenue derives from private cash pay and PPO insurance reimbursement across a diversified payer panel (Aetna, Anthem Blue Cross, Beacon, Cigna, Humana, Magellan, ComPsych, and others). Pricing is not publicly disclosed; admissions include confidential consults and benefit verification. The company does not disclose revenue, headcount trends, or ownership structure, and there is no evidence of external institutional investment, multi-site expansion, or AI/technology enablement of clinical operations.

Their dual diagnosis treatment program uniquely blends clinical excellence with personalized care, addressing co-occurring mental health conditions alongside substance use disorders.
