Ventura County, CA Drug Rehab Center Announces Expanded Services

THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. - Oct. 30, 2013 - PRLog -- The Lake House Recovery Center of Thousand Oaks, California, previously known as Recovery Advocates since its inception in 2007, recently announced the facility's enhanced licensing status, name change and subsequent expanded array of residential-inpatient substance abuse treatment services for men & women in Southern California.  Originally situated as Ventura County's most affordable yet high-end residential recovery service for drug addicts and alcoholics, the center's new licensing enables clients to receive the center's often considered "high level of care" both, on and off site, as well as the ability to pay in part using major health insurance plans.

Says LHRC program director and founder, Stuart Birnbaum, "This is an exciting time for us as we transition one of Southern California's most affordable luxury drug rehab centers into a full-scope addiction treatment resource that now works with health insurance providers, thereby offering our vastly successful advanced treatment protocols to those whom otherwise might not be able to afford it on a private-pay basis."  The Lake House Recovery Center, while located in the midst of breathtaking surroundings, marks itself as among the least expensive Southern California and Ventura County residential chemical dependency treatment centers with monthly costs starting as low as 15 to 17 thousand for those not requiring expanded medical services.

While LHRC will continue using its outside network of recovery services for medically-related protocols, primarily those related to medical detoxification and high-end psychiatric services, most day-to-day rehabilitation services will be conducted onsite and overseen by treatment professionals licensed and experienced within that respective realm.  The facility specializes not only in substance abuse and alcoholism treatment but likewise, in the treatment of dual-diagnosis/co-occurring disorders for those with accompanying mental health issues like: Generalized Anxiety, Depression, PTSD, ADD and so on.

Founder Stuart Birnbaum originally launched Recovery Advocates Treatment Center in Thousand Oaks, CA back in 2007 after a highly successful career as co-founder of Meditox, an organization responsible for pioneering the field of medical detoxification for opiate-based substances based out of Southern Florida.  This came after a 30 year long career as a Hollywood screen writer for such names as Chevy Chase, Lilly Tomlin and Red Foxx, among others.. Birnbaum saw the need for providing specialized and custom drug rehab services that would aim to exceed the commonly accepted low rate of success among residential treatment centers.  Today, The Lake House Recovery Center proudly boasts an unusually strong alumni network which, as any licensed treatment provider will agree, is the single greatest benchmark to determining a residential treatment center's trues basis for long-term success among its clients.

States Mr. Birnbaum in closing, "My vision, or rather, our vision, is such that we wholeheartedly believe in the critical nature of merging advanced as well as time-tested treatment services with comforts and other ancillary services that, combined, can help truly plant the seeds for long-term recovery to take place in the hearts, minds and souls of each of our clients."
