About South Coast Behavioral Health
South Coast Behavioral Health is a Joint Commission-accredited substance use treatment facility located at 6 Banyan Tree Lane in Irvine, California, within Orange County. The center provides medical detox and residential treatment, positioning itself as a structured inpatient option for individuals in acute need of withdrawal management and longer-term stabilization in Southern California.
The facility offers two core levels of care: medical detox and residential treatment. Medical detox is the entry point for individuals whose substance use requires clinical supervision during withdrawal — a critical first step before transitioning into the residential program. Together, these levels of care create a continuum designed to carry patients from acute withdrawal through sustained inpatient treatment under one roof.
Clinical care at South Coast Behavioral Health incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and addresses co-occurring disorders alongside substance use, including trauma and PTSD. That dual-diagnosis capacity sets the program apart from detox-only facilities — patients dealing with overlapping mental health conditions have access to treatment that addresses both issues simultaneously rather than in isolation.
South Coast Behavioral Health serves a notably broad range of populations: veterans, young adults between 18 and 25, seniors and older adults, men, and women. The facility accepts private insurance, TRICARE — making it a concrete option for active-duty military and veterans — and self-pay arrangements. Intake lines are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, reachable at (424) 484-9033.
