The Intensive Outpatient Substance Abuse Treatment Program
ADULT OUTPATIENT PROGRAM
Lasting Recovery’s San Diego Adult outpatient Program helps individuals who struggle with substance abuse issues. We believe each client is unique; therefore, we develop an individualized treatment plan for each of our participants.
We are committed to helping our clients heal and rebuild their lives in a compassionate, safe environment.
Research shows that long term recovery from chemical dependency is achieved by a solid foundation of caring, supportive therapy in a stable and structured environment. The longer one stays free from chemicals the better the chances of stopping the destructive cycle of dependence and addiction. Our qualified staff will help you determine the length of program best suited for your needs, from a minimum of 8 weeks to a year.
Our San Diego Intensive Outpatient Drug and Alcoholism Treatment Program includes 9 hours of Group sessions three evenings per week and may include Individual and/or Family Therapy. In addition, the Program includes Family Education, Random Drug Testing and Aftercare for up to a year. Our licensed and experienced staff works with each participant and plans the best possible program to meet their specific needs.
Assessment
Lasting Recovery’s Intensive Outpatient Program begins with a comprehensive assessment that includes:
- Drug and Alcohol Use
- Psychological Assessment
- Family and Social Relationships
- Lifestyle Issues
This thorough assessment allows us to develop a flexible, holistic individual treatment plan that best meets each client’s needs.
Education
Lasting Recovery provides comprehensive drug and alcohol education groups. Our format includes the use of lecture, videotape, group discussion and homework assignments that provide a forum to process a variety of recovery issues. Participants learn to increase their motivation and prevent relapse through curriculum based on current research and cognitive behavioral therapy.
In these groups, clients learn the impact substance abuse has had on their brains, their lives and families. Group topics include:
- Addiction
- Recovery
- Relaplse Prevention
- Problem Solving Skills
-
Stress Management
Goals:
- Interrupt the self-destructive pattern of alcohol and drug dependency
- Assess, address and begin to correct the harm to health and emotional well being
- Help clients and, where appropriate, their famililies, understand chemical dependency and relapse
- Assist clients to improve their relationship and communications skills
- Introduce clients and, where appropriate, their families, to 12 step programs as a key to maintaining recovery
At Lasting Recovery, we help individuals who are ready to live a life free of alcohol and drugs reclaim their health, mend their relationships, rebuild self esteem and develop effective relapse prevention skills.
Holistic Health
Research in substance abuse treatment shows it is important to address the mind, body, and spirit. A holistic approach to recovery helps individuals learn to heal the whole self - to relieve stress and live life in balance. Our carefully chosen holistic practitioners offer an introduction to acupuncture, massage, yoga and meditation.

Fearless Change Groups
Based on Dr. Judy Saalinger’s book, Fearless Change- Embrace the Choice to Reinvent Your Life,these groups help clients and their families find hope and a new way of living. Through the changes required by recovery, client's learn to:
- Identify and satisfy the basic needs of recovery
- Make effective choices and respond appropriately to high risk situations
