Costa Mesa, California; 23, June 2015: The Southern California womens’ rehab facility New Directions for Women has opened a new outpatient office on Red Hill, and the new space is already bustling with activity. The new office provides a dedicated space for the New Directions Evening Outpatient Program, as well as allowing the leading not-for-profit recovery center to add on a new Daytime Intensive Outpatient Program. A later Partial Day Program will begin in the new office later this year.

“We now have space to grow,” New Directions said in a statement. “This newly acquired space represents the culmination of an effort that has been in the making since we created our Master Plan back in 2009. We can now grow the New Directions portfolio of outpatient services and provide the broadest possible spectrum of care to patients at each treatment level.”
The new outpatient office facility includes two large rooms for group therapy, rooms for individual therapy sessions, and many details designed to make it especially conducive to healing.
“It’s tremendously exciting that we can adapt and grow our services to meet the modern recovery needs that our women have,” noted New Directions CEO Becky Flood. “We can finally provide a really complete continuity of care, allowing women to transition to lower care levels with ease and structure as part of their integration back into their community.”
The New Directions care continuum starts with a detox followed by residential treatment. From there, clients drop down to partial day services, the Intensive Outpatient program, sober living, and then aftercare. Since patients do not necessarily require each degree of treatment, they are able to enter the New Directions care system at whichever point suits their case.
Based on clinical necessities as well as their willingness to accept recommendations and participate, New Directions clients can bump up to higher care levels or go down to lower levels as well.
“Any day spent in treatment for someone with a chemical dependency is better than no day in treatment,” added CEO Flood. “Each program lets us offer every possible tool to bring about and then sustain recovery for a lifetime.”
The new outpatient office will also be reaching out to the Costa Mesa community, offering weekly Al-Anon meetings, a mindfulness meditation meeting, and an Overaters Anonymous meeting. There are also plans to host a Buddhist recovery group, and the new space has even seen several community events and alumnae activities.
New Directions noted in a statement that they are working to integrate themselves into the Costa Mesa local community fabric, in hopes that anyone who either wants to use them for supporting recovery or who needs a way to get into recovery feels they an open environment and a place to go.
