Wonderful experience. The care here is top notch and I felt all my needs were met. Great support groups, therapy and overall care and concern for my well-being. I’d recommend Casa Serena to anyone with addiction.

The work they do is deep and caring. I am grateful for so many reasons that Casa Serena has been an option and the support they give. You are not going to get any BS, but you will get availability, honesty, awareness and hope. I can't imagine where things would be without this program. Forever grateful.

Casa Serena was my home for the first 3 months of my recovery. I learned tools here to help me progress in my recovery and I have been able to completely transform my life. 2 years later and I am living a beautiful life.
Casa Serena opened its doors to alcoholic women in August of 1959 primarily through the efforts of our founder Mildred Pinheiro. Recovering from alcoholism herself, Mildred wanted to open the home “because there was no place in Santa Barbara for a woman alcoholic to go for help.” The house became a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation in 1973. In over 60 years of service to our community, Casa Serena has helped thousands of women recover from their addictions to alcohol and drugs, while managing their dual diagnosis mental health disorders. Today, we are Santa Barbara’s only licensed and Joint Commission accredited nonprofit, evidence-based, residential treatment and rehab program for women.
