Outpatient treatment is ideal for many situations: as a step down program for a woman transitioning from Residential care, for the woman with a mild substance abuse problem caught in its early stages, for an individual court ordered to outpatient treatment, or for the woman who requires some amount of flexibility in order to meet a work schedule, home life responsibilities or the demands of motherhood. Outpatient best serves the individual that has a strong desire for recovery and is committed to treatment.

Substance Use Dependence is often accompanied by other underlying psychological problems which require counseling and education. Our Outpatient program offers these components through Evidence Based treatment. Clients will engage in (graphic) Relapse Prevention, Life Skills, Anger Management, Communication Skills and Family Counseling. Patients may also meet individually with a counselor to establish and then periodically review treatment goals. Each participant works closely with group facilitators and counselors who monitor each individual’s progress. Class participation is strongly encouraged.

Individuals have the opportunity to establish sober friendships with other class members and begin to create a new network of support.
