About Sullivan Recovery
Mission Viejo, California
Where medical precision meets human warmth
Sullivan Recovery was built by people who have walked the path of addiction and mental health recovery themselves — and chose to turn that experience into a sanctuary for others.
Our Promise
Every person who walks through our doors is seen, heard, and met exactly where they are.
Our Story
Born from lived experience
Brothers Cory & Tyson Sullivan founded Sullivan Recovery on one conviction: recovery works best when it feels human.
Sullivan Recovery was born from the lived experiences of brothers Cory and Tyson Sullivan. Having faced drug and alcohol addiction and mental health challenges firsthand, they understand that the journey to recovery is deeply personal — and that clinical excellence alone is not enough.
With more than 25 years of combined experience in addiction and mental health treatment, they built a program that pairs evidence-based medical detox with the restorative power of community, nature, music, and surf therapy — right here in Orange County.
