Drug & Alcohol Rehab Serving Marina del Rey, CA
Marina del Rey occupies a distinct corner of the LA coastal economy. The community along the harbor and Venice border is home to tech professionals, entertainment industry workers, creative professionals, and high-net-worth families who often chose the area specifically for its combination of coastal lifestyle and proximity to LA employment centers. The coastal-leisure culture – sailing, paddleboarding, beach lifestyle – can sometimes mask substance use patterns until they become severe.
Annandale Behavioral Health’s private 6-bed estate in Pasadena serves Marina del Rey residents with a clinical-first treatment program and the operational structure professional patients need.

Marina del Rey patient profiles
The Marina del Rey patient population includes tech professionals at the Silicon Beach companies (Google, Snap, Hulu, and many startups based nearby), entertainment industry workers, creative professionals in advertising and design, boat-owning professionals where alcohol use happens routinely in social contexts, and high-net-worth families with primary or secondary residences in the area. Substance use patterns we see include daily alcohol use that progressed from social and recreational drinking to physical dependence, prescription stimulant overuse for tech-industry cognitive demands, cocaine use in industry social and networking contexts, cannabis use disorder, and polysubstance patterns.
The 30-mile clinical separation
Marina del Rey to our Pasadena facility is approximately 30 miles east via the 10 and 110 corridor, typically a 50-70 minute drive depending on traffic. The distance provides meaningful environmental separation from the coastal lifestyle that often sustains substance use – the bars, the boat parties, the regular social patterns – while remaining close enough for weekly family therapy beginning week 2 of residential care.
Tech and creative industry considerations
Silicon Beach tech workers and entertainment-industry creatives share many of the same workplace dynamics: high-pressure deadlines, performance demands, equity compensation, EAP access, and the cultural normalization of substance use in professional networking. Our treatment program addresses each of these aspects directly. We coordinate with EAP coordinators when patients direct us to, design treatment plans that respect realistic professional constraints, work with patient attorneys on vesting and equity concerns where relevant, and provide clinically defensible documentation for employment absences.
Treatment phases
Medical detox if indicated. Residential treatment 30-60 days with comprehensive evidence-based clinical care: individual therapy 3-4x per week, daily groups, CBT, DBT, EMDR for trauma where indicated, psychiatric medication management for co-occurring depression, anxiety, ADHD, family therapy, and experiential modalities. Limited structured work access during the second half of residential care for genuinely essential professional matters. Aftercare with outpatient therapist match in Westside or coastal LA, ongoing psychiatric care, and 12-month alumni support.
Insurance
Annandale accepts all major PPO plans common among Marina del Rey patients: Aetna, Anthem Blue Cross, Cigna, Blue Shield of California, United Healthcare, and Beacon Health Options. Free benefits verification.
