About AXS Rehab
A trusted addiction treatment center in Placerville, California, dedicated to compassionate care and lasting recovery.
Founded on Compassion, Built for Recovery
AXS Rehab was established with a clear purpose: to create a treatment center in the Sierra Nevada foothills where individuals struggling with addiction could find genuine compassion, clinical excellence, and a realistic path to lasting sobriety. Our founders, drawing on decades of combined experience in behavioral health and addiction medicine, chose Placerville for its serene natural surroundings and strong community spirit.
From our first day, we recognized that every person who walks through our doors carries a unique story. That belief drives everything we do, from the individualized treatment plans we design to the warm, home-like environment we maintain at our 398 Main St facility. We treat the whole person, not just the substance use disorder, addressing the underlying trauma, co-occurring mental health conditions, and life circumstances that fuel addiction.
Evidence-Based Treatment, Personalized for You
We combine proven clinical methods with holistic therapies to treat the whole person, creating individualized plans that address each client's unique needs and recovery goals.
