"The proposal submitted to Healdsburg by The Ruse Treatment, LLC, explained that the facility will target an "elite clientele" comprised of "affluent male and female professionals, offering a discreet, personalized recovery experience in a serene resort style estate." The "non-12-step, holistic program" will offer private suites and "gourmet dining" while integrating "evidence-based therapies like CBT and EMDR" - cognitive behavioral therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing - "with extensive one-on-one counseling and holistic practices such as yoga, meditation and acupuncture.""
"Clients can receive "medically supervised detox, dual-diagnosis care, and customized aftercare," along with golf therapy, "a unique experiential offering" using that sport "to promote mindfulness, stress relief, and peer connection, blending physical activity with therapeutic reflection to support sobriety," according to the proposal."
The owners of The Ruse, a Healdsburg bed and breakfast, previously sought to convert the property into a private recreation park with pickleball, bocce, a putting green and an outdoor pavilion serving beer, wine and spirits, but zoning officials rejected the plan and the Planning Commission denied the appeal. The owners returned with an application for a conditional-use permit to operate a 13-bed substance-abuse treatment facility at 891 Grove St. The proposal targets an elite, affluent clientele and describes a non-12-step, holistic program offering private suites, gourmet dining, evidence-based therapies (CBT, EMDR), one-on-one counseling, holistic practices, medically supervised detox, dual-diagnosis care, customized aftercare, and golf therapy. Staff recommended approval.
