Welcome to Desert Willow Wellness, a luxury rehab in California, where evidence-based therapies and holistic modalities blend to provide you with an exceptional healing journey. Our private rehab in California Located in Palm Springs, our program offers a peaceful environment where individuals can step away from the stressors, pressures, and distractions of everyday life and focus fully on healing.

What Luxury Treatment Means at Desert Willow Wellness

Treatment Programs

Treatment Programs Overview

At our private addiction treatment in California, we begin by understanding the person behind the addiction. Every client arrives with a different story, and treatment should reflect those differences. Our programs combine medical support, evidence-based therapies, holistic approaches, and individualized treatment planning.

Safe Detox

Detoxification is often the first step in recovery. Our team provides 24-hour monitoring, withdrawal management, and compassionate support to help clients stabilize safely and comfortably before transitioning into ongoing treatment.

Residential Program

Our residential rehab in California provides a structured environment where clients participate in therapy, recovery education, wellness activities, and skill-building experiences designed to support long-term recovery.

Dual Diagnosis Treatment

Substance use disorders frequently occur alongside anxiety, depression, trauma, bipolar disorder, and other mental health concerns. Our integrated dual diagnosis approach addresses both addiction and mental health needs at the same time.

Group Therapy

In our luxury drug rehab in California, group therapy provides a supportive environment where clients can connect with others facing similar challenges, practice healthy communication, and gain insight through shared experiences. All groups are facilitated by trained professionals and conducted with respect for privacy and confidentiality.

Aftercare Support

Recovery continues long after residential treatment ends. Our team works with each client to develop a personalized aftercare plan that may include ongoing therapy, support groups, outpatient treatment, alumni resources, sober living referrals, and additional recovery supports.

As the founders of True North SC, we work closely with treatment providers and understand how important communication, clinical excellence, and genuine compassion are when entrusting someone to a program.

We recently had the opportunity to place a client at Desert Willow Wellness and our experience was exceptional. From the beginning, their team was responsive, communicative, and truly collaborative. We always felt informed about our client’s progress and knew they were being cared for by people who genuinely had their best interests at heart.

What stood out most was the level of individualized attention and care. Recovery is not one-size-fits-all, and it was evident that the team at Desert Willow Wellness takes the time to understand each person’s unique needs and provide thoughtful, client-centered support.

We are grateful to have trusted partners like Desert Willow Wellness in the recovery community and would confidently refer future clients to their program. Thank you to the entire team for the incredible work you do.

Desert Willow is one of the most collaborative, mindful, clinically astute, and, above all, compassionate teams I have worked with.

These are not fawning marketing words from some random observer. I am a long-time industry professional who works exclusively in the complex behavioral health space, and most importantly, I have trusted Desert Willow with clients.

They have been seamless in how they communicate, collaborate, and hold the clinical work. Thoughtful, responsive, clear, and deeply humane.

Trust these guys!

A truly thoughtful program that prioritizes stabilization, connection, and individualized care! Their small client census allows for a highly relational approach, while offering multiple recovery pathways including 12 step, dharma, SMART recovery, and wellbriety. The apartment style creates a unique and comfortable environment that makes treatment feel a little bit more like home, and the clinical team works collaboratively to support each client's recovery journey. A program that genuinely understands that healing looks different for everyone. I am so impressed with this program!!

I am writing to express my sincere appreciation for the outstanding care you and your team consistently provide to the clients you serve. As a referral partner for my out patient program, I have consistently found your team’s communication to be clear and timely, and your level of care to be truly exceptional. You’ve kept me and my team well-informed every step of the way, and when clients have transitioned back to me, it has been seamless and appropriate. I deeply value our collaboration, and I look forward to continuing to work together in the future. I highly recommend Desert Willow Wellness residential SUD treatment program to anyone seeking help. I would personally send my own family members to this program without hesitation.

Coming into Desert Willow Wellness, I was scared and broken, with a little bit of hopelessness mixed in. The amazing Staff welcomed me with open hearts and minds. You can really feel the interpersonal connections between all of the counselors and staff and clients. They helped me to restore not just my body, but my mind and soul as well. Going to Desert Willow Wellness completely changed my life for the better and I would highly recommend it to anyone who truly wants to get Sober and reconnect with Community and the world. Thank you all

When I decided to seek treatment for my alcoholism, I searched for hours online to find a place. I discovered Desert Willow Wellness and agreed that it could be a good fit. Well, it was more than that. I was initially committed for detox only, yet I felt so comfortable that I decided to stay for treatment. The facility is very peaceful and relaxed. The privacy- to be able to have your own casita is such a bonus when you need to have some solitude or time to unwind or meditate. The therapy, group sessions and varied treatment tools are amazing. Although it is a lot of work (mentally and emotionally) to attend these treatment sessions, I always looked forward to participating.

The staff is beyond amazing. The founder, Kurtis Girard, is the real deal. He is gifted, respected, and has a way to make people feel comfortable. He has also done an awesome job at hiring such a diverse group of employees; each with their own incredible knowledge, experience, gifts, and personalities.

I am forever grateful that I chose to give myself the gift of sobriety and I am forever grateful that Desert Willow Wellness was and is a part of my journey.

Nobody ever wishes to end up in jail or dead, no one really wants to be alone, and nobody actually thinks that the decisions we make in life will cost us dearly. Most of the time, we believe we can be ok after the choices we make, but life gets real really fast, and the time to think about what you're doing runs out, and when that alarm goes off, we lose everything, and everyone you cared about is in pain with broken hearts!! If you had one choice to make before your time is up, choose to call Desert Willow Wellness, they are the picture portrayed in the meaning explained and describing the word FAMILY. People, professionals, yes, but people more, who actually care about your well-being and really mean it when they say, "I GOT YOUR BACK!" Thank you ALL at D.W.W. for being there for me and showing me that there really are people who care!! I LOVE YOU!!

Their addiction treatment, dual diagnosis, and medical detox programs are designed to keep clients safe and comfortable, and the staff goes above and beyond to create a welcoming environment for recovery. It’s clear the team is deeply committed to each individual’s success, offering both clinical excellence and genuine human connection. The facility is well-run, the staff is attentive, and the supportive setting makes a real impact. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Desert Willow Wellness to anyone seeking a trusted drug and alcohol detox center in Southern California, or to families looking for a reliable place to begin the recovery journey.
