Windward way recovery Newport Beach

Licensed to provide addiction treatment, Windward Way Recovery Newport Beach has worked with adult clients since 2008, and The Joint Commission accredits it. Its services address substance use disorders tied to alcohol, prescription medications, and illicit drugs, along with mental health conditions that occur alongside them.

Community, connection, structure, and a renewed sense of purpose sit at the center of how the program is built. Physicians, therapists, and counselors make up a multidisciplinary team providing care, and a number of staff members draw on their own recovery experience. Care is shaped around each person, with gender-specific formats and holistic options among the choices.

Programs and levels of care

The center provides detox, outpatient care, and treatment for dual diagnosis care. During detox, withdrawal from substances such as alcohol, opioids, and benzodiazepines is managed with medical monitoring. After detox is complete, clients may step down to outpatient or intensive outpatient programs, which include individual counseling, group therapy, and family support.

Among the therapies offered are cognitive behavioral therapy and EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing)), adventure therapy, art therapy, and twelve step facilitation. The center also emphasizes life skills and spiritual care. For those seeking inpatient rehab in Orange County, the center's detox and outpatient services provide a structured starting point.
