Learn About ReferringWatching someone you love struggle with addiction is one of the most painful experiences a family endures. You feel helpless, afraid, and unsure where to turn. ACAC walks alongside families every step of the way — because recovery belongs to the whole family, not just the individual.
Find Family SupportBuilt around your story, your goals, and your life — not a template.
No two journeys to addiction are the same — and no two paths to recovery should be either. ACAC's adult program begins with a comprehensive clinical assessment to understand your full story: your history, your strengths, your challenges, and your goals.
From that foundation, we build a treatment plan that is entirely yours. Whether you need intensive outpatient support, individual therapy, family counseling, or a combination of modalities, your care team designs every step around your life.
"Our clinicians are trained in the most effective, evidence-based approaches — recognizing that addiction and trauma are deeply intertwined for many adults. Every service is delivered with dignity, cultural sensitivity, and an unwavering belief in your capacity to heal."
Evidence-based services tailored to your clinical needs.
Evidence-based CBT identifies and reshapes the thought patterns driving addictive behavior, giving you practical tools to sustain your recovery.
We address the roots of addiction with compassion. Our clinicians create safe, healing environments for trauma survivors without re-traumatizing.
One-on-one sessions provide a private, judgment-free space to explore your recovery goals with a licensed, dedicated counselor.
Community is core to recovery. Group sessions foster connection, accountability, and shared strength among peers walking the same road.
Addiction affects the whole family. ACAC's family sessions rebuild trust, improve communication, and heal relationships fractured by substance use.
Every client receives a fully individualized plan crafted by our clinical team to address their unique needs, goals, and life circumstances.

True recovery means rebuilding not just sobriety, but vitality. ACAC's holistic approach integrates mindfulness, physical wellness, and healthy lifestyle practices so that healing touches every dimension of who you are.
Evidence-backed mindfulness practices reduce stress, manage cravings, and build emotional resilience that sustains long-term sobriety.
Substance use depletes the body. ACAC's nutrition guidance restores physical health, improves energy, and rebuilds your biological foundation.
Recovery is a lifestyle. We equip clients with tools for sleep, movement, stress management, and daily routines that support wellness for life.
Adolescence is a critical window. When substance use begins early, it can alter brain development, disrupt education, strain family relationships, and close doors that might never fully reopen. But early intervention can change everything.
ACAC's youth treatment program is designed specifically for the adolescent experience — clinically rigorous, developmentally appropriate, and built with deep respect for the young person's dignity and potential. We don't just treat the substance use; we address the full picture of a young life.
Our licensed clinicians are experienced in adolescent-specific challenges including peer pressure, family conflict, academic stress, identity, and co-occurring mental health issues. Every youth receives an individualized plan with family involvement at every step.
Early recovery protects academic performance and keeps future opportunities — college, careers, professional licenses — within reach.
The adolescent brain is still forming. Interrupting substance use early preserves cognitive development, emotional regulation, and long-term mental health.
Youth treatment heals more than one person. Family counseling at ACAC creates lasting repair in the relationships that matter most.
Young people who receive treatment are significantly less likely to face chronic addiction, legal consequences, and serious health outcomes in adulthood.
Youth leave ACAC with coping strategies, emotional resilience, and life skills that serve them beyond recovery — in relationships, work, and community.
If you are a parent, guardian, or professional concerned about a young person's substance use, ACAC offers compassionate consultations and clear guidance to help you take the next step.
When you refer a client to treatment, your professional reputation is on the line. You need a partner who will take that seriously — a team that communicates, responds quickly, and delivers measurable results.
ACAC has built longstanding relationships with physicians, therapists, social workers, court systems, EAPs, and healthcare professionals across Sacramento. Our CARF accreditation and Top 10 provider recognition reflect the clinical standards we uphold — standards your clients deserve.
