- Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)
- Builds skills for handling strong emotions and distress without turning to alcohol or drugs.
- Rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT)
- Challenges the beliefs that make setbacks feel unbearable, so they are easier to work through.
- Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR)

How your treatment plan is built
A clinical assessment
Clinicians look at your substance use, mental health and daily life together before recommending detox, residential treatment or outpatient care.
A plan with your goals
You and your clinical team set the goals in your treatment plan, and the team reviews it as things change.
Medication when it helps
If medication is part of your care, a licensed psychiatrist prescribes it and reviews how it is working.
Aftercare and relapse prevention
Before each step down, you and your team plan the next stage, including coping skills, relapse prevention and supported living if it helps.
What outpatient rehab treats
Outpatient addiction treatment at Enhance covers drug rehab and alcohol rehab. Dual diagnosis care treats co-occurring mental health conditions at the same time, so one team treats addiction and mental health together.

When outpatient rehab is the right start
Outpatient rehab works when home is a safe place to be between sessions. If withdrawal or safety is a concern, admissions will tell you which level of care is the better start.
Outpatient care may fit if
- You can stay safe and away from use between sessions.
- You have a steady place to live and people who support you.
- You need to keep working, studying or caring for family.
- You are stepping down from detox or inpatient care.
Start with detox or inpatient if
- You get shaky, sick or anxious when you stop drinking or using.
- You use alcohol, benzodiazepines or opioids every day.
- You tried outpatient treatment before, and it was not enough.
- Staying away from alcohol or drugs is too hard while you live at home.
If there is immediate danger, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. For a mental health crisis, call or text 988.

Common questions about outpatient rehab from Costa Mesa
If your question is not answered here, call admissions at (714) 862-1907.
What qualifies as outpatient rehab?
Outpatient rehab, sometimes called outpatient substance abuse treatment, is care you attend while living at home. At Enhance it includes a partial hospitalization program (PHP), an intensive outpatient program (IOP) and regular therapy.
What is the difference between PHP and IOP?
PHP, short for partial hospitalization, takes most of the day, often five days a week. IOP takes a few hours a day, several days a week, with morning or evening sessions.
Which therapies are used in outpatient rehab?
Licensed therapists lead individual, group and family therapy, using CBT, DBT, REBT, EMDR and trauma-informed care. Your personalized treatment plan decides which of these fit you.
Is outpatient treatment right if I need medical detox first?
If the assessment shows you need detox first, admissions will explain where that care takes place and plan your move into outpatient rehab afterwards.
Do I have an addiction to alcohol?
Only a clinician can diagnose alcohol use disorder, but signs include cravings, drinking more than you meant to and trouble cutting back. The screening questions on the first call are a place to start.
Is supported living available during outpatient rehab?
Yes. If a structured home would help during PHP or IOP, supported living adds staff oversight and a sober setting. Admissions can tell you where the homes are.
How long is outpatient rehab usually?
The length is different for each person. Your assessment and your progress decide when you step down, and admissions explains how that works on the call.
Do outpatient rehabs work?
Outpatient rehab can help when you can stay safe at home between sessions, and results are different for each person. If it is not enough, admissions will tell you which level fits better.
Can I keep my job in Costa Mesa?
IOP and outpatient care are built to fit around work, and PHP takes most of the day. Your employer's HR team can tell you what your job offers.
What is the cost of outpatient rehab?
Your cost depends on your plan, your deductible and your copay. Admissions can verify insurance benefits and explain what you would pay before you start.
Will insurance cover outpatient rehab for a Costa Mesa resident?
Coverage depends on your plan, your deductible, your copay and the level your insurer approves. Admissions checks your benefits first, and a verification is not a guarantee of coverage.
Is Enhance's outpatient program accredited by The Joint Commission?
Yes. The Joint Commission accredits Enhance for Behavioral Health Care and Human Services, and its record lists PHP, IOP and outpatient therapy at the Tustin office.
Can I join outpatient rehab by video?
Virtual PHP, IOP and outpatient care run by video, and admissions can tell you whether virtual care fits what you need.
