Residential treatment · Tarzana, CA
Residential treatment in Los Angeles, under one roof with detox.
Residential treatment at Lumora Recovery means living in our private house in Tarzana, accredited by The Joint Commission, while treatment is under way. It often follows medical detox, addresses co-occurring mental health conditions alongside substance use as the assessment decides, and plans for what comes after.
Residential Treatment
What residential treatment means
In residential treatment, a person lives at the program for the length of their stay instead of going home after each session. The same house, the same contacts and the same routines are set aside for a while. How that compares with partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient and weekly outpatient care is laid out in our guide to residential vs outpatient rehab.
Lumora is a residential program in a private house. Some people call this inpatient rehab; here is how inpatient rehab differs from a hospital stay.

The setting
A private house in Tarzana, for a small household
Lumora is one house on Wilbur Avenue in Tarzana, shared by a small household.
The great room, with its terracotta sofas and the open kitchen behind, is where people gather. The dining room has marble tables. The bedrooms are calm and uncluttered, made up in charcoal linens. A wellness room with a living green wall and a covered gazebo in the back garden give people somewhere quieter to be, and the clinical work happens in private offices inside the house. See the rooms.
During a stay
What residential treatment at Lumora includes
The clinical assessment sets the plan, and the plan is built around the person’s clinical needs, their family and the life they are going back to.
Mental health care for conditions that occur with substance use. These are assessed and addressed alongside substance use, as federal guidance recommends, with the assessment deciding how. Dual diagnosis care at Lumora.
Eating disorder support. When an eating disorder occurs with substance use, Lumora coordinates planning, including referral to a specialized program when that is the safer place to start. How eating disorder support works.
Aftercare planning. Aftercare planning is part of the stay, so discharge is a handover rather than an ending. How aftercare planning works.
Timing
How long residential treatment lasts
The length of a stay is set by the clinical assessment and reviewed as treatment goes on, not fixed in advance.
The National Institute on Drug Abuse notes that most people need at least three months of treatment in total, and that longer engagement is linked with better outcomes. Residential treatment is one part of that time; the aftercare plan carries it on after discharge.
Fit
Who residential treatment at Lumora suits
Whether residential treatment fits is decided by the assessment. Families often ask about it when outpatient care has not been enough, or when someone needs distance from where they have been using. It also follows directly from medical detox at Lumora.
When the assessment shows a medical or psychiatric need that calls for a hospital, the hospital comes first, and residential care at Lumora can begin once the person is stable. When detox comes first.
