If your attorney has told you to get into treatment, this is the part you can take care of today. Same day admission is available once your assessment is complete, with your court letter issued the day you are admitted.
A DUI arrest is stressful, and the steps that follow can feel overwhelming. If you live in or near Coto de Caza, reaching out for help right now is a sound decision. You don't have to face this alone.
Compass Recovery treats the alcohol or substance use that often underlies a DUI. We operate two Orange County locations in Cypress and Costa Mesa, both open to people from Coto de Caza. Your first call is confidential, with no judgment.
Coto de Caza is in south Orange County, near Mission Viejo. Compass Recovery's Costa Mesa location is northwest of Coto de Caza, and our Cypress location is farther north. Our admissions team is available 24/7 to confirm which address applies to your care.
We are a licensed and accredited addiction treatment center. Our focus is the substance use disorder itself, which court ordered education classes are not designed to treat.
Your treatment legal letter is issued the day you are admitted, and progress letters follow on the schedule the court sets, always with your written authorization.
Alcohol withdrawal can be dangerous. When detox is needed, our team monitors you around the clock before therapy begins.
Anxiety, depression, PTSD and trauma often sit underneath heavy drinking. We treat them together with the substance use, not one after the other.
Tell us on the first call. Admissions answers 24/7 and will work to your deadline. Not ready to call? Take the free, confidential 2-minute self-check first.
The first step is a conversation, not a commitment.
Any time, day or night. Tell us what happened and what you are worried about. Asking questions costs nothing.
We assess your substance use, mental health and medical needs, then recommend the right level of care.
We check your benefits directly with your carrier. Sliding scale and private pay are available if you are not covered.
Same day admission is available, and your treatment legal letter is issued the day you are admitted.
Yes, Compass Recovery serves Coto de Caza, CA. We welcome individuals from Coto de Caza as well as nearby communities including Rancho Santa Margarita, Mission Viejo, Ladera Ranch, and Lake Forest. Treatment takes place at our Orange County locations in Cypress and Costa Mesa, California. Getting started is simple: call our admissions team 24/7 for a confidential conversation about your treatment options.
Compass Recovery offers same day admission once your clinical assessment is complete and your benefits are verified, and your treatment legal letter is issued the day you are admitted. Admissions answers 24/7, and the assessment can usually happen on the first call or shortly after. The letter confirms your assessment and admission and is released only with your written authorization. If you have a court date coming, tell admissions on the first call so they can work to that deadline.
Compass Recovery provides clinical treatment for the substance use disorder behind a DUI, including court ordered or attorney recommended treatment, but it is not a state licensed DUI program. It is a licensed, Joint Commission accredited addiction treatment center (California DHCS License 300331CP). We provide the assessment, the care and documentation of your progress, with your written authorization. The court ordered DUI education class must come from a state licensed DUI program, which you enroll in separately, and we work alongside it.
Treatment for a substance use disorder is a covered medical benefit under most major health plans, though coverage and authorization requirements vary by policy. Compass Recovery is in network with Aetna, Cigna, Blue Shield of California and TriWest, and offers sliding scale and private pay options if you are uninsured or underinsured. Court fines, DUI program tuition, license reinstatement fees and ignition interlock costs are legal expenses and are not covered by health insurance.
The length of DUI treatment depends on your clinical needs rather than the charge. Medical detox typically runs several days, residential treatment commonly runs 30 to 90 days, and continuing care can extend much longer. Your assessment sets the recommendation, and the plan is adjusted as you progress. Outpatient care is also available for people who cannot step away from work, school or family.
You need medical detox if your body has become physically dependent on alcohol or another substance. Warning signs include tremors, sweating, nausea, a racing heart or anxiety when you have not had a drink. Stopping abruptly after heavy long term drinking can cause seizures and can be life threatening, so withdrawal should be medically supervised. A clinical assessment at Compass Recovery determines whether detox is needed.
Compass Recovery cannot promise any legal outcome, and no treatment provider should. Attorneys frequently encourage clients to begin treatment before a court date, and courts routinely consider documented engagement in treatment when weighing sentencing and probation conditions. With your written authorization, we can provide documentation of your assessment, admission and progress. For advice on your case, speak with a qualified DUI attorney.
