Capstone is a licensed residential treatment program serving troubled young men (14-24).
Capstone is for young men who struggle with substance abuse, family conflict, and personal problems including loss, hurt, anger, abuse, depression, low self-esteem, defiance and a rebellious attitude.
The average length of stay is approximately 3–3.5 months.
The Capstone Mission: Capstone joins families in the battle for their sons so they can grow up to be young men with successful lives, purposes, and relationships. The purpose will entail things that are connected to the gifts divinely given to the individual.
The relationships start with God, then spread out to wife, children, friends, and humanity. To win this battle, a boy must find his “true self” as described by John Eldredge in Wild at Heart. Satan and his evil forces are at war with the Trinity to prevent these young men from finding their true selves and subsequently, from fulfilling their purposes. This sets the stage for Capstone Treatment Center.

What does CHRIST-CENTERED mean?
Every aspect of Capstone reflects Jesus Christ, but He is never forced on anyone. Capstone is not affiliated with a specific church but instead, just simple Christianity. The goal is spiritual growth toward a personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ, not religiosity. We accept residents where they are in their beliefs, from atheist to devout Christian, and cultivate spiritual growth through truths that will stand on their own including honesty, purity, humility, self-control and more. These Biblical truths are common beliefs to all Christian oriented people. Based on our Christ-Centered foundation, we believe that God has given each young man special gifts and purposes that can be developed and used for good. It is in the process of this struggle that God gives him the opportunity to achieve this growth.

How is Capstone’s CORE MODEL of therapy different than other programs?
Capstone works with residents who have addictions, as well as those who meet the criteria for co-occurring disorders. However, we do not identify our residents as “addicts” or “disorders” but instead, as young men who have hurts and struggles that have resulted in these conditions. Capstone goes to the core of what is causing these struggles and treats the whole person in the contexts of his past, present, and future. Sobriety is a primary goal and works in a synergy with other primary goals: healing his hurts, filling his inner voids, rebuilding his core to core relationships, and developing his gifts and self-competency. Capstone’s goal in using the Core Model is that each young man turns his life’s direction toward living a life that is healthy, fruitful, and fulfilling of his gifts and purposes.

What makes Capstone’s PSYCHOTHERAPISTS so effective?
Capstone’s psychotherapists are trained to not only treat addictions but also the co-occurring disorders that are harmful by themselves but when coupled with an addiction, often work to perpetuate relapse. Because of Capstone’s commitment to intensive therapy we have the highest therapist to resident ratio of any program in the country: 1 therapist for every 2 residents. All of Capstone’s psychotherapists have earned degrees in Marriage and Family Therapy, 11 Masters and 2 PhDs. Our psychotherapists are licensed as Marriage and Family Therapists and/or Licensed Professional Counselors or LACs and/or LAMFTs. All are Part II trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing).

Why is 90 DAYS of treatment CRUCIAL?
Different professional studies, as well as experts in the field of drug abuse, state that longer treatment programs are crucial to ending the relapse-rehab cycle. NIDA (National Institute on Drug Abuse) researchers referred to well-organized and conducted 90-day programs as “the gold standard” in treatment. Capstone’s program averages between 90 and 105 days. Dr. Harry Haroutunian, director of the licensed professional program at the Betty Ford Center, is cited as saying that the first 28 days largely consist of coping with withdrawal symptoms and establishing a relationship with a therapist....it is often afterwards that therapists discover other problems that if not identified and treated, can bring the person back to their drugs.
The following article overviews the facts about a 90+ day residential program: LA Times article enclosed. |
