No waiting listmost start within days
It's how we get you from your first call to your first session fast, often in the same week. There's no waiting list, and the phone is answered 24/7, holidays included. Most people start within days of their first call, while the decision to get help still feels doable.
There are four steps, and most of them happen in one phone call. You can call (424) 208-3120 at any hour, or verify your insurance online in about two minutes.
It's free and confidential. You can ask anything you want and stop at any point.
We look at your deductible and network status with your plan, usually within the hour.
A free talk with a clinician, by phone or in Westwood. It picks your level of care, and there are no wrong answers.
Often the same week. You know where to go and who you're meeting before you walk in.
An admissions coordinator asks what's going on and what your week looks like with work and family. They answer your questions and explain your options. Most calls take 15 to 30 minutes, and nothing starts until you say so. If you're calling for someone else, that's fine too.
Juanita and Scott helped me through some of the hardest parts and made sure I never felt like I was doing it alone.
You don't have to figure that out before you call. The assessment matches you to a level of care based on your needs and your schedule. You'll start in one of our outpatient programs.

We're an outpatient center, so we don't do detox here. If your assessment shows you need it, we arrange it with a trusted detox provider and save your spot. You make one call and we handle the connecting. Treatment with us starts right after detox ends.
Not much. You go home every day, so there's no bag to pack. If you want a feel for those first hours, read what the first day of rehab is like.
We work with most major PPO plans. Whether yours pays for treatment, and how much, depends on your deductible and plan type. The free benefits check answers that before you commit to anything, and it doesn't notify anyone.
Federal parity law and California's SB 855 both require health plans to cover medically necessary addiction care.
What we find out for you
No. Calling us doesn't notify your job or your family. What you tell us stays private under HIPAA and 42 CFR Part 2, a federal rule made just for addiction treatment. We never call your employer, and nothing goes out without your written okay.
