Outpatient Treatment Programs

Flexible addiction treatment that fits your life. Attend therapy sessions while living at home and maintaining work, school, or family responsibilities.

What Is Outpatient Treatment?

Outpatient treatment allows you to receive professional addiction care while continuing to live at home. You attend scheduled therapy sessions and group meetings—typically a few times per week—while maintaining your daily responsibilities and support system.

What to Expect

  • Individual counseling sessions (1-2x/week)
  • Group therapy and peer support meetings
  • Flexible scheduling (evenings/weekends often available)
  • Continue working, school, or family obligations
  • Access to recovery resources and support

Who It's For

  • Mild to moderate addiction severity
  • Stable, supportive home environment
  • Motivated to maintain recovery
  • Completing inpatient treatment (step-down care)
  • Work/family commitments that can't be paused

Benefits of Outpatient Care

Outpatient treatment offers flexibility while still providing professional support. You can apply recovery skills in real-time in your daily life, maintain important relationships, and continue earning income. It's often more affordable than residential care and allows you to build long-term recovery habits in your actual environment.

Step-Down From Residential Treatment

Many people transition to outpatient care after completing inpatient or residential treatment. This provides continued support while you reintegrate into daily life, helping maintain momentum and reduce relapse risk during the critical early months of recovery.
