Frequently Asked Questions

Alcohol and drug addiction across the board, including cocaine, methamphetamine, fentanyl, heroin, crack, benzodiazepines, Xanax, Valium, Suboxone, PCP, MDMA, marijuana, and prescription opioids. We also treat co-occurring mental health conditions like anxiety, depression, PTSD, and bipolar disorder alongside the substance use.

Three outpatient levels of care: PHP (Partial Hospitalization), IOP (Intensive Outpatient), and Outpatient, plus dual diagnosis care, aftercare, and court-approved programs. One clinical team carries you through the whole continuum.

PHP is the most structured: several hours a day, up to five days a week, typically 30 to 90 days, individualized. IOP is a step lighter, with day, evening, and weekend schedules that fit around work and school. Outpatient is weekly therapy to protect your progress. You do not have to choose alone: the intake assessment matches you to the right level.

No. We are an outpatient center and do not provide detox on site. If you need medical detox first, we help coordinate it with a trusted facility, then welcome you into our program the moment you are ready, with no gap in care.

Structured, but personal. Most days combine individual therapy, small group sessions, and skill-building like relapse prevention, plus therapies such as art or yoga when they are in your plan. Then you go home and sleep in your own bed.

You step into aftercare, not off a cliff. That means continued counseling, 12-step support, our alumni community, and random testing when accountability helps. Recovery support does not stop at discharge.

Yes. Your records are protected by federal confidentiality law, 42 CFR Part 2, and HIPAA. That protection is stricter than ordinary medical privacy: we cannot share that you are in treatment without your written consent, with narrow legal exceptions like a medical emergency.

Not from us. We do not contact employers, and your insurance communication happens between us, your insurer, and you. Many clients complete evening or weekend IOP without anyone at work ever knowing.

We report exactly what the court requires, such as enrollment, attendance, and progress, and nothing more, to no one else. The rest of what you share in treatment stays protected under 42 CFR Part 2, just like every other client.

Four steps: call us anytime at (626) 594-0881, we verify your insurance for free, you complete a private clinical assessment, and you start treatment, often the same day. The whole path can take hours, not weeks.

Often, yes. If you call in the morning and the assessment supports it, you can begin that afternoon. When someone is ready for help, we do not believe in waitlists.

A photo ID, your insurance card, a list of current medications, any court paperwork if it applies, and comfortable clothes. And your questions: ask every one.

Call us. We will help you understand the options, plan the conversation, and get everything ready for the moment they say yes. You cannot force an adult into treatment, but you do not have to carry this alone either.
