Addiction Care That Stays in Oakland
HHPL Rehab opened on 12th Street in 2017 because too many Oakland families were driving an hour or more for residential addiction treatment - and many were not making the trip at all. Nine years and 2,600 patients later, the founding question still organizes the work: how do we keep care close enough to the families who need it?
About HHPL Rehab
HHPL sits in downtown Oakland, two blocks from City Hall and steps from the 12th Street BART station. Our 29-bed residential program, full outpatient continuum, and 56-clinician team were built around a specific Bay Area gap: a clinically rigorous treatment option close enough that an Oakland family member can visit on a Tuesday evening, that an East Bay employer can accommodate, and that a patient does not have to leave their support system to access.

Why Choose HHPL Rehab
Built to Close a Local Gap
HHPL opened in 2017 because the closest residential beds were an hour or more from Oakland. We built where the need was.
56 Clinicians, One Record
Medical, psychiatric, and therapy staff work from a shared treatment record and meet three times weekly per resident.
Vocational Track Built In
Return-to-work coaching, employer disclosure, and short-term disability support are clinical components, not add-ons.
Trauma-Informed Throughout
Trauma-informed practice is the operating standard - intake, room layouts, group agreements, and discharge.
Outdoor Recovery
Daily nature walks, equine therapy, and outdoor fitness anchor the schedule. Movement and air are clinical interventions, not extras.
In-Network With 8 Plans
Aetna, BCBS, Cigna, Medicaid, Medicare, Magellan, Tricare, Humana. Verification typically completes in under an hour.
Stories of Recovery
"This was the fourth treatment center I had walked into in twelve years. I had stopped believing rehab worked for someone with my history. The intake nurse at HHPL went through every prior attempt with me - what had worked for any period, what had triggered the relapse - and built the plan around that data instead of starting fresh. Eighteen months sober. The previous attempts were not failures. They were the data this time was built on."

"I did not want to be at HHPL. My brother drove me from Hayward and I spent the first intake meeting answering in one-word sentences, certain I would sign out within 48 hours. The thing that kept me was the morning nature walk on day three - a resident who had been there a month talked, very plainly, about something specific he was scared of. Nobody tried to fix it. I stayed for the whole 50 days."
- Trevor B., residential alumnus, 2024
"Nineteen years on the engine company in Alameda County. The job had given me a vocabulary of fear and grief I could not put down at the end of a shift, and the off-duty drinking that started as decompression had become its own emergency. HHPL put me in a peer cohort with two other first responders for the first three weeks. I never had to explain myself. Three years sober, still on the truck, and I now run our department peer support program."
