Outpatient / Intensive Outpatient Treatment

HAS offers gender-specific outpatient and intensive outpatient treatment at a variety of convenient locations. These services are designed for individuals who have significant addiction symptoms but are medically stable, do not need detoxification or residential services, and can be expected to remain abstinent in an intensive and highly structured outpatient program.

During outpatient counseling, participants learn about the disease process of alcoholism and drug addiction, work with staff to understand and accept their own chemical dependence, and explore healthy life-styles that do not include alcohol and drug use.  They also work closely with staff to create their own individualized recovery plan.

Each participant takes part in educational seminars regarding different aspects of addiction, as well as individual, group, employer, and family counseling sessions.  HAS provides its own weekly AA groups in English and Spanish.  Attendance at outside self-help groups (AA, NA, CA) is also strongly encouraged, as it is important that participants begin to build a social support system and to establish healthier relationships in a drug-free environment.

All services are available in a caring, supportive, culturally competent environment and are completely confidential.  Services are available in both English and Spanish.
